  there have been a couple of postings lately about long assemblies.. does anyone remember these, or maybe even attended them?.

  i was just a young child in the early 70's and something tells me i remember a long assembly, but don't remember if it was 8 days.. how long were they exactly, and what times.

  what the hell did they talk about???.

  I remember in Pasadena in 1963 there was a Billy Graham crusade nearby at the Los Angeles Coliseum. The dubs took great pride in besting his attendance each day. My favorite memory as a 9 year old was the day we took off to go to Disneyland! I also remember staying at the Huntington Hotel, one of the great old hotels of that day. But the best part was leaving Sunday night before Knorr was done because we had a train to catch!

  okay.. so about 3 months ago, my company ordered in a guy from a temporary agency to help out with some of the filing and billing.

  for arguments sake, well call him adrian.

  anyway, as soon as he started here, i recognized him from the assemblies.

  the C.O. made a blatant misrepresentation of the facts.

  This hasn't actually ever happened, has it???!!!!!

  There was only one person mentioned all of the posts so far that's worth a hoot! (Wendell Wilkie was #2)

  Farkel, I thought you of all people would appreciate Mencken!

  They only had beheadings in Bible times because no one had invented pinatas yet!

  Will YOU Make Room For It? RoadTripII

  it is with a mixture of joy and sadness that mrs know_you and i depart john and eunice's sanctum of sanity.

  truly their home is an enclave of peace in this mad, doomed, sybaritic world.

  what a contrast to the spiritual lunatic asylum inhabited by the apostates with their shrill cacophony, their puny fists, like the men of babylon, raised in anger to their creator!

  you know

  hello... i've been away from here for awhile, and probably will not be getting very involved here again, but some things have got me wondering lately.

  i don't know if you know's still around, but, if so, i have a couple of questions.. you know: correct me if i'm wrong, but i seem to remember your saying that you'd read ray franz' book "crisis of conscience.

  " i'm not going to debate the propriety of your doing so, as one of jehovah's witnesses, but i'm very interested in what you think of his reasoning on various points.

  The Watchtower certainly is God's one true organization,

  How do we know?

  Because the Watchtower organzation teaches the truth.
