2034
by Black Sheep in.
the watchtower bible and tract society is pleased to announce that printed litterature is longer required as our faithful and discreet slave has used the proceeds of the sale of wallkill to purchase a share of microsoft.. microsoft updates will now inform the jonadab class of new light via automatic updates of the 2033 wtdvd, which will no longer be available at kingdom community supply stores.. the key code to access the wtdvd will be available to accredited members by their overseers..

When is it appropriate for a JW to refuse to supply a Watchtower???
by Black Sheep ini have been refused copies of recent watchtowers by my daughter.. she will give them to me..... "if you can tell me that you think jw may have the truth and that is why you want to read them you can have them.".
do any of you know of any instructions from the wackotower for refusing to supply someone with their litterature?.
cheers.

Watchtower Chess....My move
by Black Sheep ini asked my sil if he can help me to get copies of july 1 through to sept 1 watchtowers.
he knows that i am disillusioned with the wt and that i am born in, but never been baptised and he doesn't shun me.. here is his reply.. "yes i can help, but it would depend on why you wanted them and what you wanted to accomplish by reading those issues, :-).
i have had a few ideas on how to reply, but i would like to hear your comments before i reply.. .

Music from Big Pink
by Black Sheep inone of my biggest regrets from my youth was leaving 'music from big pink' by the band in oz with my friend, mick, who loved it as much as i did.. i did so in the mistaken belief that i could get another copy of the lp when i got back to nz.. wrong.. bummer.. that was in 1972.. i just bought a cd of it online tonight.
i am over the moon.. yeehhaa.

Forever hopeful
by Black Sheep inmy son in law took it apon himself to engage me in an internet debate some time ago, but quit after telling me he was ' looking into it' on the 607 thingy.. we never discuss jw stuff face to face even though we see each other often.
(i was never baptised, so the shunning thing has never been an issue in our family).. whenever he has said a prayer at our table it has always been "jehovah, jehovah, jehovah".
this weekend he addressed 'father' only and said a prayer befitting a christian.. forever hopeful.
