Hooah to Maryland Defense Force
by NCO ini'm sure there's some from maryland here.
in the aftermath of the recent derecho or whatever they call it when power was out for days, the maryland defense force put boots on the ground and deployed to provide support to those affected.. http://www.abc2news.com/dpp/news/the-maryland-defense-force-delivers-water-and-food-to-people-without-power#ixzz1zz3akn1c.
i serve in georgia state defense force and we've deployed after tornadoes hit georgia in 2011. my cap is off to my brothers and sisters in mdf for their hard work without pay.. when a disaster strikes, that's when you learn how overwhelmed your state's ema really is and how the local law enforcement can be stretched so thin.

Did you used to be an assembly food rapist?
by yourmomma ini confess proudly that i was one of the biggest assembly food rapists when it switched to the donation arrangement.
in fact, i would roll up to the counter with a fake list and pretend i was getting food for a huge family, lol.
"uh, yes, hello sister, what a fine morning program that was, may i please have 6 roast beef sandwhiches, 6 chocolate puddings, 6 apple danishes, 6 sodas....etc" and i would eat throughout the entire fking program, as it was so boring there was nothing else to do.

Time for an Intervention
by NCO income this july, i will have been out of the jw's for 20 years.
and it has been quite a long time since i've really spent any serious time studying up on jw news and doctrines although i do still read here occasionally.
but after today looks like i've got some work to do.. my first sergeant called me this morning asking for my help to fix his dad's truck as i'm an auto technician in my civilian job.

"Hospitality"?
by NCO inhad to meet my parents not too long ago for some family business and while working out the time for that sunday, they said they had the meeting and then following the meeting they had "hospitality" for an hour or so.. now i've been out for going on 20 years and somewhat out of the loop.
needless to say i've never heard of that.
i've been to other churches where they have the sanctuary and then the fellowship hall where the members go and eat after the service.
