6Instant dinner party
by Quillsky inhere's the scenario......... it's friday evening and you've arrived home from work, ready to enjoy the night at home watching a movie.
your home is averagely tidy and clean, your fridge and cupboards contain the food and drink they're normally stocked with, nothing special.. at 7pm the doorbell rings.
you open the door and two couples are standing there, friends of yours that two weeks ago you invited over for supper tonight.

Do Witnesses serve Jehovah for a "Paradise" payday!!
by Witness 007 inyes go to meetings and field service otherwise no "payday" for you!
witnesses spend many hours serving jehovah because they will live forever in paradise on earth.....yes, they won't die like the rest of mankind.....so is this really why people serve god...for a final payday in the future?.

How many would honestly keep doing what they're doing for no reward?
This is also why it is not a volunteer work!

Do You Personally Know Of Anyone That Committed Suicide?
by minimus inlately, i've come to find out that a more than a few people in the area had killed themselves.
most of the people i know of were in their early twenties or forties.
for those loved ones surviving them, it was mostly a shock!

International Conventions - Have you attended any of them?
by Girlie induring my time in jw, i always had a desire to attend the international conventions, but never had the opportunity to do so because it was always extended to the elite class 1st (pioneers, elders, etc.
) and peons second.
in my congregation, the same pioneer sisters always hogged the opportunity, leaving others to only hope in the day they can go.

I got to go to the "Peace on Earth" assemblies in Europe while pioneering. I was living at home and was able to save most of the money myself. My grandparents gave me some money, too. The activities were not controlled then, we got a terrific price on air fare and accomodations and attended a session or two in each assembly city. After that, we toured and saw the sights. I was there for a month and it was wonderful. I'd love to spend another month in Europe!

Rubadub, raw herring? I'm not sure I could even eat the pickled stuff! I'm looking forward to some good chocolate.

Raising Chickens!
by jgnat ini had another great idea the other day; raise chickens!
in this rapidly changing recessionary world, i cast my mind back to stories of the depression.
farmers fared better than urban dwellers.

I'd like to try keeping chickens for the eggs. I couldn't kill them myself and it's illegal to "slaughter" in our area. Have you seen the Eglu?

Coffee will become the WTS sacrament.
Coffee and biscotti to replace wine and crackers.
