Apart from "My Book Of Bible Stories" and the "Paradise" book?
by Crumpet incall it my anal retentious streak, but i've rated every book i've ever read since i was 7. i had phases of favourite writers.. i was an enid blyton fan - the faraway tree, famous five, secret seven, mallory towers series.
then i got hooked on franklin w dixon's hardy boys and judy blume's eye opening, straight talking stories about growing up which really taught me everything i knew about what life was like for a normal girl not growing up in the jw world.
i started reading agatha christie when i was 9 and remember taking the maximum number of books i could from the mobile library van that came to our village and being as impatient for its fortnightly return as i was for the afternoon icecream van.

Things You HATED About Being a JW
by minimus inthere were a few things that i hated about being a witness.. i love music and live concerts.
quite often i'd have to play my music privately or hide an album cover for fear it might "stumble" someone.
i hated worrying whether someone was going to somehow get "stumbled.. regarding going to concerts, it seemed that certain artists only came to town on a meeting night and i'd miss the shows.. what did you hate about being a jehovah's witness?.

Which Hotel in VEGAS is your favourite??????
by south african beef injust been to the bellagio for 6 days - absolutely loved it!.
visited most of the big hotels - loved the wynn with it's in house ferrari showroom.. venetian was also awe inspiring.
mandalay bay was impressive for its size - including a 12,000 seat auditorium and an underwater shark experience.. luxor was also amazing and mgm grand is the worlds biggest hotel with over 5000 rooms.. for shopping caezars palace was fantastic - the forum shops were something else!.

Update on last nights dinner.
by myababes inthanks to everyone for thre good advice i got for last night.. however omg, the husband is more of an apostate than i am!!!!!!
it didn't take long for the conversation to get round to religion brought up by themselves and they really let flow.
how unhappy they were with a lot of the teachings, how it was a manmade org, and they were only in it because they wanted to serve jehovah and jesus, and he sounded like one of us talking when he listed the research he had done on the dates, generation, paedophiles, gb, boe and everything else we question.

Any suggestions on the best way to handle tonight?
by myababes inwe have not been in the org for over 10 years now but still see the old jw's around and about.
one particular couple we used to be fairly friendly with we bumped into the other night as they are doing a course at the college my hubby lectures at.
they were never the strongest of couples but have kept going cos of their family i suppose.
