Funny happenings at assemblies and meetings
by thewiz ini just remembered this yesterday.. a newly appointed m.s.
was assigned the bathroom detail at a circuit assembly in natick.. well, he naturally asssigned most of the bros to the mens rooms and the sis to the womens room.. well in the women's room they have those "special" items in case of emergencies and the little wax paper bags, i think.. now the trash bags were transparent, pretty much, and the sisters are taking care of throwing these used items in the bags so they could be carried out back to the compacter.

Trying Not To Peep..
by Englishman inas we now have our central heating boiler installed in our old fireplace, i have been getting more than a little worried as to exactly how santa will come down the chimney so as to leave me with lots of nice prezzies.
its also been complicated getting my prezzy list to him as i normally send this up the chimney about a week before christmas day.. her ladyship came to the rescue and suggested that i pin my prezzy request list to the communal notice board in the dining room, so i took my pen and wrote: .

Depression is a way of life for JW's
by butalbee inthe more i studied, the more i got sucked into being a witness, the more depressed i've become.
i don't want to do anything anymore, i mean what is the sense: the end of days is upon us!
the more i became involved with witnesses, the more i felt that i was loosing a part of myself.

New York Times & UN/WTS
by biblexaminer innew york times december 15, 2001 .
in a startling revelation, the watchtower bible and tract society of brooklyn ny, parent organization to the jehovah's witness religion, was exposed for a stark contradiction in their religious practices.. it was revealed this week by the guardian (a leading uk newspaper) that the governing body of the watchtower religion had secretly erected a christmas tree in celebration of the festive season.
when the facts were made public this week, the watchtower quickly, and quietly, removed the tree to another location.. paul gilles, spokesman for the watchtower in great briton, wrote a letter to the guardian, in which he stated that the "tree was in no way secret" and that it was "necessary to gain access to the un library".
