    Meetings are like your five fingers. Which ones don't you need?

    Meetings are like stepping stones across a swift river. How many can you skip.

    Greetings,

    never heard the row boat one but it presumes that the water is flowing against you. But if you are going with the flow, you continue to go forward even without paddling.

    The cow girl thing, I never heard, but I have a vague inkling about. I think it comes from some old WT article or maybe a Young People's Ask.

    most of the others I have never heard (except New light of course) but they all sound pat and pretty stupid. All of them could be responded to with an equally stupid solution.

    This reminds me of something that my brother told me the other day though. This is slightly off topic.

    Evidently he gave my father some money to help my folks make it to the district convention and my brother mentioned to my dad that he would have to tell his wife about the money.

    My dad quoted to him the scripture about "not letting your left hand know what your right hand is doing"

    To which my brother replied, that his wife, in that case might follow the scripture:

    "If your right hand is making you stumble, cut it off."

    There is one that I always hated. The stupid dented pan thing. You know the one. How can you have a perfect cake if the pan you are using has a dent in it? Comparing that with imperfect mankind because Adam & Eve were imperfect.

    How about the one Blondie cited, in which a CO compared marrying a ``worldly" person to getting hitched to a corpse?

    I hated the roadmap one...... "If you are following a road and someone shows you on your roadmap that you are going the wrong direction, would you not change?" Road = life, Roadmap = The Bible as interpreted by JWs

    "If you are on the fence between Satans world and Jehovahs organization, then you are already on the Devils side. Because God doesn't build fences."

    Huh!? (scratches head)
