My wife reads off crosswords when we are driving to keep me awake. I beat a rubix cube once after cheating and reading a book. Could never repeat it without the book.

I always wished I could play an instrument. I bought a guitar 35 years ago but I didn't follow through. I've asked friends who play to jam at Xmas but they are too shy.

Fisherman..I just added that last comment to a very old thread. Not sure who you were responding to but I agree you do have some protection if using a credit card. I needed this couple years ago when I discovered someone was using my business card for meals out couple times a week at outback steakhouse in New Jersey for the last 6 months. My balances were usually 5-10 thousand each month in new charges so it was easy to miss. I caught it only because they used it at a nice hotel for $300/night once. I was able to sort it out and get refunded thankfully. It doesn't always work, I was fraudulently charged for a hotel we declined to stay at in Mexico after seeing the uninhabitable room. I lost my dispute of the charge without an explanation. I was able to point out I used the card at another hotel the same night but still no refund.
My issue is how complicated this stuff gets and the how not knowing the fine print about ebay and Paypal can really cost a lot of money.

The forum now consists of anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, Jehovah witnesses apologists, fake religious theologians
I guess that means more of us need to start threads that are helpful expressions of compassion, factual, scholarly, informative or entertaining.

Sounds like you know what you want to do. All you have to do is say, don't want it, don't need it, don't call me I'll call you. They may disfellowship you in absentia if they feel particularly vindictive like they did us but I imagine it's a little like someone "coming out of the closet". -

The WT church has made changes to policy and will likely slowly adapt to the modern world. The question is will this make the WT church more attractive or less? Will thousands who have left (POMI) over this issue return to the WT church?
