Where my wife attends, they have the mid-week meeting on Friday. Maybe they should just call it 'not-Sunday' meeting. It seems to me if meetings are supposed to 'recharge' you after having to deal with the world, it would be better to space them out a bit. When I was going, I hated meetings on Friday and Sunday, especially if we went out in service on Saturday. Now, I don't worry about any of it.

Also just noticed after watching the tony vid (couldn't bear to listen) that the bible he was using had highlighted text. I thought that was bad. Maybe just for service it is bad, but study bibles are ok. What is the current 'thinking' on that subject?
And Tony has a ring on both hands? One is not enough?
Just noticed that Lett also has the same setup... Although one is on his pinky.

WiFi problems? Want a faster network? Try Powerline Adapters!
by Simon inwifi is great.
it's so easy and convenient.
but it can be slow.. years ago when it first came out you maybe had a pc and a couple of other devices at most.

Interesting, need to check on limitations. I have an office separate from the main house, but the wifi signal is weak so when I am working at home, I usually work in the house. The electricity from the house powers the remote building (underground cable).
Could be an option or only works on main circuits in the house?

How was it when you were a JW as a kid?
by nevaagain inwhats worse than being an adult jw?
when i was a kid i always had a bad concience all the time.
i believed i would not survive armageddon for the fact that i didn't like going to service and i didnt like going to the meetings.

My son has been out longer. He just kind of drifted away. When I woke up, we had a good conversation when I was last back in the states. I wanted to make sure he didn't hate me for taking away his childhood. He was a JW from birth until his early 20's.
Suprisingly, he was ok. I think his biggest regret was not being able to be involved with sports. He is not really anti-JW, just not part of it any more. Someone visits him with mags once in a while that he said he glances at. I encouraged him to be polite but firm when refusing their invitations to go to the meetings.
I think I am actually more upset by it (his lack of a normal childhood) than he is. When I visit my sisters and mother (never JW's) and see all the memories they have of real family outings and get togethers, it really hits me. I got nothing.

My wife is watching it now. She is in the living room with her iPad and I can tell by the tone and delivery what she is watching. What is really strange is that she just visited my office and offered to make me some dinner (I am working at home this weekend) and suggested some additional possibilities later. Confused.
She has been really active in service lately. I suspect she is getting some encouragement to pioneer.

A new member
by Kurteousmaximus inhi... i am new and after nearly 20 years after being disassociated at 15 i would like to make contact with others who have similar difficulties.
my mother was disfellowshipped shortly after my rebellion and had all ties with both her mother and brother cut and that remains the case.. just really hacked off with not being able to put things in the proper place in my life after all these years.
for the record i don't know if i believe in god but am searching for some peace as i seem to self destruct on a regular basis.. any ideas anyone?.
