Were you ever "rewarded" for your faithful service?
by Jonty Parkin in"rewards" for faithful service sometimes used to come in the most unlikely manner.
to illustrate; the "privillege" of being a young microphone handler occasionally yielded its wholesome dividends of an unexpected nature.
for example, when i was once on microphone duty as a young aspirant ministerial slave, i was rewarded with an edifying flash of theocratic tit when a sister leant forward to give her comment.

after those traitors portsmouth failed to act as our safety cushion at the bottom the the premiership and stormed up the league, we needed things to work out this weekend.. our victory yesterday again newcastle (sorry gadget & kenuk) plus bolton's 4-1 thrashing of leeds means that it practially guaranteed that leeds join leicester & wolves gonig down to division 1 instead of us !.
man city ... lowest club not to be relegated - what a result !

Parents don't understand...
by überRabbit inmy parents just don't understand why i don't want to be part of the jehovah's witnesses organization.
it's not that i don't believe jesus' teachings, but i believe that the society has taken it too far.
they read too deep into god's words, that they end up putting training wheels on everyone.

Did you give your children 'Bible names'?
by nicolaou ini have to admit that we gave our first two kids 'hebrew' names.
i don't want to identify my children online but suffice to say that we had at least some sense in that we opted for safe names of the samuel and daniel type - no melchizedeks!.
however, in our city we had a javan a samson [gen 10:2] and even a zechariah!

Arsenal are Champions!!
by yxl1 inarsenal have taken the premiership from manu, and done it in style.
yesterdays game would have been the icing on the cake if it wasn't for the idiocy of lehmann in the closing minutes of extra time.
even you manc fans have to admit that winning the league unbeaten is a real accomplishment.

What Makes Some ExJWs So Angry & Others So Pleasant???
by minimus in.
from what i can see, it appears that some exwitnesses are either handling life outside the organization pretty well or not well at all.
i wonder if some persons simply, by nature are angry, unhappy persons while others are naturally good, "honest-hearted ones" that simply want to find some measure of happiness.

Musicology
by yxl1 inprince has released a new album called musicology.
it is a very strong album and has the added bonus of not having a single jwism in sight.
imagine his latest jazz style, mixed with his mid to late eighties output, blended with his ninties funk and you'll have a good idea what it sounds like.
