Are you more ecological, more economical or more wasteful? Did your habits change at all when you left the borg?
by likeabird ini know from living on a borg budget, you don't have much choice but to live economically.
recycling, while ecological, can also be a form of economy.. did the verse "god will bring to ruin those ruining the earth" play a guilt factor in your ecological habits?
i know it used to hum along in the back of my mind.. did any of your habits change when you left the borg?

Can you do me a favor?
by Marvin Shilmer intoday i added a translation feature to my blog page.
it would be very helpful if readers of various languages could take a look at this feature and let me know whether it helps or not.
what i need is some idea of how well the translator works and whether the translation renders the essence of the english.

Good Signs from my wife? maybe? She wants to improve her thinking ability!
by thecrushed inso after the memorial hell http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/249700/1/memorial-hell my wife totally missed the special talk and i only just realized from jwn that she has.
in fact last sunday i took her out to a park and we had nice time in the fresh air enjoying nature.
also she has taken up improving her congnitive skills on luminosity and today said she might actaully go and study some algebra on khan academy which i had suggested instead of spending money on luminosity.

The CO 'encourages' Julia to meet with THREE elders- the latest episode in the best-selling drama, The Fade of Julia Orwell.
by Julia Orwell init was yesterday morning and hubby and i were having a huge sleep in.
it was just after ten, and with me being a bit flu-ey i was quite capable of staying in bed longer.
hubby was feeling it too, and we were pleasantly drifting in and out to the sounds of birds.. then suddenly, cloomp, cloomp, cloomp up the front stairs, then "rap-rap-rap" on the front screen door, that rapid-fire, strong knock of the practiced door-knocker.

Move Around, Move Around in the Kingdumb Hall
by rebel8 intm, and instead get to know those outside one's clique.
you know, so when the great tribulationtm comes, you will have plenty of friends'tm homes to hide in.. it was one of those things that the bros got so excited over, marveling at how clever their fellow bros are, and how special their religion is to have such a witty and fittingtm little song.. we couldn't wait for the real song to play so we could see which bros would be bold and sing the move around lyrics to it instead.
oh how hilarious that was!

Young people growing up as Jehovah's Witnesses
by socstu init's been a while since i've posted on here, but the last time i did i was looking for young people to take part in my dissertation research.
well that was a whole year ago now and i can tell you i was very happy and relieved to have received a first class on the paper.. i've subsequently just wrote a blog post on the topic.
it's not a copy of my dissertation, but more of a musing which is very much informed by all my interviews.. anyway i hope you find it somewhat interesting:.
