Another brochure ~ The Draft?
by alamb ini was talking to a friend yesterday and he mentioned in the late 60's following the instructions given in a brochure printed by the wtbts as an aid to avoiding being drafted.
he followed it to the letter and when he got to the end, it pretty much said, "oh, and if you do all this and get in trouble with the law, we didn't tell you any of this.".
anyone have one of these little gems?

to my friends here....
by alamb inas a loyal jw, i was ready for my whole world to come to an earth-shattering halt and for life as i knew it to be gone...at the hand of my loving god.
i only remember a life of grey, shades of grey punctuated by flashes of color and emotion which i quickly prayed to get through and to not be tempted by the colors i had seen.
i viewed these as a sign of spiritual weakness and dove back into studying and praying and a living death i called "spiritual paradise".
