Driving a Stick Shift
by WTWizard inhas anyone in service ever driven a stick shift?
i have seen plenty of people with stick shifts in my day, and believe me they drive like gas has a negative cost.
first thing i have observed is that a good many pioneers will have the habit of leaving the car in second gear driving down a city block.

How To Catch Tuberculosis
by WTWizard inok, so this is an "urban legend".
this is the reply to all those craptower magazines that relate to people that narrowly missed getting aids from fornication, simply by staying within tower principles.. this time, the brother refrained from fornication, though the person he was tempted with was just about perfect for him--except for religion.
instead, this brother devoutly passed her by and went from door to door trying to "do the right thing".

Has anyone had to miss school for an assembly?
by WTWizard inusually, the district assemblies start past the middle of june, but i have heard a number of people that have had them start already.
granted, that is in the south where school usually lets out in may and starts in august.
on the flip side, some southern assemblies might be running in late august and school already in session.. i have seen a district assembly that ran june 16-18. and school didn't let out that year until june 23. this is the week when final exams are commonly given in school, and any children that missed them for the a$$embly got a zero on the biggest test of the year and likely flunked or did poorly as a result.

As Far as Sunrise Is from Sunset
by WTWizard inhave you ever noticed this scripture quoted or cited at the meetings?
yes, i know it's rare these days, but it is something that is used in cases of indoctrination.
it is primarily used to get people who have been doing worldly things to join the cult.. so what?

Assembly Headache
by WTWizard inhave you ever noticed that at the end of the a$$emblies, you always seem to have a headache?
and this is above and beyond the one that you might get during a stressful day at work.
people seem to get them during the assemblies.

New Stupid Assembly Rules
by WTWizard ini have heard on this discussion board numerous rules that apply to upcoming a$$emblies.
some are designed to stop people from meeting the opposite sex; others, to make sure everyone is always ready to recruit new members into the scam.
i heard that some km inserts have been urging those whose congregation has cleaning assignments to sit in the section that they are assigned to clean.

The Snow Day
by WTWizard ini know it's a little late in the year for snow, unless you live in the far north or high up in the mountains.
but, i wonder how many others would hope for a blizzard on meeting night or when the a$$emblies were scheduled--or if anyone has ever had the crapmorial cancelled for snow.. one thing i liked was when, on a meeting day, it would be snowing hard.
there would be a foot or so on the ground with more coming down toward suppertime.

The Urim and the Thummin
by WTWizard inhave you ever had a talk about the urim and the thummin?
or, perhaps you had to figure out how these items relate to our lives today.
notably, very few people even know what those items are, except for those devout jews that have studied the old testament or those scholars that study the bible professionally.. i have noticed that the watchtower society places undue emphasis on the urim and the thummin as the "deeper things".

Watchtower Bait and Switch
by WTWizard inhow many times have you seen articles in the asleep magazines about chocolate, coffee, some exotic plant or animal, or something that smacks of entertainment?
why would these articles be in a religious publication in the first place, especially one that is in the process of totally banning all entertainment?.
for one thing, having these articles is supposed to make the religion appear to tolerate and even condone a certain level of entertainment, and even participate to a degree.
