am i going nuts or am i just pissed off?
there are so many posters who use abbreviations in their posts and so many of us have been out for years.
the borg constantly changes everything from beliefs to organizational tactics, so those like me don't have a clue to what you are referring to.
It's so funny, they have been trying to do away with there beibg one top pit bull elder in each cong since the mid 70''s. They keep changine the title, and stressing, that they are all equal, yet, there is still one pit bull elder in charge per cong!

when i was a jw we had a 60 minute public talk - interval - 60 minute wt study.
60 minutes on a tuesday and 2 hours on a thursday.
apparently every single meeting was essential.. we also had to get to 2 circuit assemblies every year that consisted of friday evening, morning, afternoon and evening on a sat and morning and afternoon on a sunday.
Cofty, the Sunday & Thursday meetings did not include the song a prayer, so you had to add at least another 15 miuntes or more!

in the past week, i have heard from a number of friends scattered all over the place.
a number of them are very upset over the congregation being required, to send in all monies over $4,000.
a number of these were kh's that were saving to buy land, and or build new kh's.
I can't stand watching him speak!

I have to defend the friend of mine who want's his money back. He gave it for a stated project, with the understanding that was what it was to be used for, that project, not to be taken/stolen and sent away for others to decide what to do with it! I know this guys pretty well, he won't be giving anywhere as much as he always has to the local, or branch headquarters. His dad pretty much paid for the KH they are in now, 35+ years ago. And there is no telling how much more he would have given to the local project, once it got started! He said his legal people have told him, that he has a very good case!!
I agree that if you drop it in a donate box, with no strings, you have no right to be able to say how it is used!

another good codinghorror blog entry perfectly describes some people's online behaviour and an approach to handling it.
i'll post part of it below but to summarize, these tend to be behaviours that don't violate any specific rules as such as the people doing it try to carefully skate just up to the line but they are nevertheless disruptive and we're not going to tolerate them on this site.
if you are here to do these things then this isn't the site for you - move along, find someplace else on the internet to inhabit.. hate is easy to recognize.

but i do like the new site!
it seems a lot faster to me, and since i have found my way around, and a few adjustments that have been made, i am good with it.
like everything, it still may have some rough spots, but overall, it's good!.

just a few instructions orders from mother about motels.. please use only hotels that appear on the recommended lodging list.
(one page, with only one motel locally).
one nights deposit (credit card, money order, etc.,) is required, and should be sent to the hotel within ten days of making your reservation.
The more rooms paid for by the sheeple's the more kickback, the borg gets, in the form of free rooms!
Ones that truly can't afford rooms, can get free lodging if the eldubs agree, and send in the paperwork. Some in motels, some in private homes. Depending on how many free rooms the sheeple all pay for!
