if i spent as much time working as i am on the internet at work, i would be president of the company. however, with that said, every person around me is on the internet more than anything. anytime you walk into someone's office, they are on some web site that is not work related.

Facebook --- again
by rockmehardplace inone of the jws in my congo told me to search a name on facebook which is a 18+ year old brother in our kh who is for most part, a very "spiritual" brother.
i looked him up and his account is open for anyone to see.
best part, he has some pictures that could very well put him into alot of trouble.

have you ever come across any pictures or stuff on facebook or other sites that makes you wonder why the person, if not wanting to get caught, would not hide it.

GB says they are NOT responsible for people acting on their counsel
by LUKEWARM in.. *** w98 3/15 p. 22 par.
15 living up to christian dedication in freedom ***.
15if a witness makes decisions on the basis of bible counsel offered by the governing body, he does so of his own volition because his own study of the bible has convinced him that this is the proper course.

let's think about this. you do something that brings you before the elders then. the elders tell you what you should do. you do it and it backfires. your fault, you listened to them. now...try this. you go before the elders for something. the elders tell you what you should do. you do not do it. you get kicked out like yesterdays trash.
i get it now. you are screwed either way.

one of my fav alt country bands at one time was Whiskeytown. here is a link to one of their songs. ryan adams was the front man for the group and went on to a rather successful solo career.

Embarrassing Moments on the Platform
by HintOfLime ini was thinking the other day about a potential answer to the frequent party question 'what was your most embarrassing moment?'.
immediately my mind went to my last experience on the theocratic school.
as an aspiring ms, i volunteered at the last minute to give a #4 talk on a particular individual (ignorant of what i was about to get myself into).

we always had the typical stuff. calling people by wrong names, forgetting names, occasional zipper down, saying the wrong word {one brother said it was important to meditate deeply on the scriptures as you constipate - he meant concentrate}. the only one that really stands out for me in all the time was a brother was giving a TMS part and it was his first time trying it from an outline. he was encouraged for months to use an outline. he started his talk and about 30 seconds in, he got confused as to what to say. instead of regrouping, he just picked up his bible and walked right to his seat, grabbed his bag and left. he did not come back for six months. to this day, and this has been years ago, he is not on the TMS.

what if someone comes into the "truth" and turns out to be the greatest spiritual guy there is. serves for several years, tested as to fitness first stuff, and he marries a born in pioneer. few years later HIV pops up and he was loyal to her as all could be. cause that stuff can lay dormant for years without surfacing. now, the question is, did jehovah screw her over for marrying a good guy in the "truth" or what? she played by all the rules. such a stupid poem.

one time me and another brother caught an elder smoking. told him he had a week to come clean. he did but nothing. caught him again and told him to come clean again. again he did and they did nothing cause he was an elder.
one time my wife found out a sister was working for a strip club. my wife was working part time and some guys she worked with had a bachelor party for one of the guys in the office one weekend. one of the girls in the office the next week mentioned that there was photos going around between the guys from the party. my wife happened to see them and in one of the pictures was a sister in a bikini sitting on a guy's lap. she asked the guys who it was. they all said she was a stripper at the party. she da'd before anything else could be done. she was "on the edge" as it was anyway.
the one that sits funny with me though is we were helping an old sister out with cleaning her house. someone always picked her up and took her to meetings, but she made it clear that friday nights she was to be left alone. turned out, they saw her coming out of a bingo parlor. she played every friday night. went on for years it turned out. well, when one of the brothers approached her about it, she told him it was her own money and her own business and no one else's. sure enough, no one said any more to her and she played every friday
