Do JWs Marry At Too Young of an Age???
by minimus inmost of the witnesses that marry are in their early 20's that i know of.
they have zippo experience in anything except how to hide pimples.
from what you have seen, are most witnesses encouraged to get married---just so that they don't sin?

Did You Stay as a Witness Because You Needed a Social Life & "Friends"?
by minimus inrecently onacruse made a comment regarding why many jws remain jws.
a lot of people look at religion as a way to get together and be social with one another.
let's face it, people need "friends".

The big D can you help??
by brutusmaximus ini haven't been to the hall in quite some time even though all my family are still in and i see some of the witnesses from time to time.
i am not disfellowshipped and don't intend to be as i don't see why they should have the right to stop me talking to my folks.
however one of my friends has just had the big d and is now regretting it.

"Beefing-Up" your "Hours"...
by Jonty Parkin ini never actually lied about the number of hours i put in, but i was extremely creative in how i counted them!
this, of course, was born of an intense hatred and loathing for the "work", coupled with the realisation that if my average did not hit double figures, i might be taken to task over it!
don't get me wrong, i wasn't scared of knocking on peoples doors and being told to regularly to "f*ck off"- i just could see no sense in it.

So How Good Was Roy Orbison Then?
by Englishman ini've got loads of his stuff.. i particularly liked him when he was playing with the travelling wilburys.
tom petty, george harrison & bob dylan along with orbison, jamming in a warehouse while singing "handle with care".. yet..i always had this sneaky feeling that he was struggling to stay in tune and that his golden voice covered over the glitches.. i recently downloaded him singing "bridge over troubled water" accompanied by the mavericks.
it's very much orbison as he employs his remarkable timbre to cover the difficult notes, but this time it doesn't come off at all well.. btw, i can only sing in tune after 4 or 5 pints and then i have a sneaking suspicion that my voice stays the same but that my ears become less fussy.. whaddyathink?.
