gift
by baggy inmy friend's son and daughter-in-law are jehova's witnesses.
i know they do not celebrate birthdays, but is it ok to give them gifts during the year that are not for a specific occasion?
also, i bought a little ceramic figurine of an angel that was personalized with their infant daughter's name on it.

Got me bloody well thinking...
by Max Divergent ini was visiting at a hospital and was in the elevator with a patient who was being transfused with a bag of bright red blood on the way back from an operation; i was mildly surprised to see the patient was old sister barbara who used to have our book study at her house!
i guessed it was cell saver blood as it's deemed ok against acts 15, but it was still weird to see a sis getting a blood transfusion.
it got me to thinking how a simple statement in acts (and the other scriptures) could be the source of so many (illogical but un-challengeable/un-discussable) rules and fine distinctions (enforced by strict penalties) as defined and amended from time to time in the watchtower...

One-stone
by dustyb inthere was this one indian that had a nicknamed called one-stone because he only had one testicle.
everybody called him one-stone until one day, he got really mad and said he was going to kill the next person to call him one-stone.
so for a long time nobody called him one-stone until this one really hot blonde named robyn came and accidentally slipped, "hello one-stone".

Coming soon: the winter of our discontent
by ozziepost insummer's over for another year and we've entered autumn (fall).
if we're feeling low at the prospect and the northerners are feeling low 'cos they haven't got summer, does it mean that the whole world's feeling miserable right now?.
now how about that for a bit of fluff, eh?.

passwords
by Sargon inthis was on another thread, i though it was a great idea and i've always got lots of posts available so here goes:if you're late you have to knock on the door and be recognized through the peep-hole before they will unlock the door.. .
i'm surprised they didn't ask for a password.
perhaps you could start a thread for suggested passwords, elsewhere...
