Love this from page 5 😆

Interesting, do you suppose there could be a federal 55 mph mandate under the current administration? Or do they just need to drill more ? We do live in interesting times ....

He's a very good analytical thinker. I like his talks because they reflect that. Since I live in Montreal, where Brother Splane served as Circuit Overseer in French, there are plenty of brothers and sisters here knew him back in those days (I don't know what year...). All of them have fond memories of him. No one was surprised when he was appointed to the Governing Body; they could see it coming. It was only a matter of time.

@Jim Jam thanks for those clips. I LOVED family guy back in the day, i think i stoped watching back around 2016 because it didnt have the umph that brought me into it, so im familiar with those clips, however this is my first time seeing them as a Witness, oddly enough the second clip i can enjoy slightly a bit more because this is also the first time ive seen it after watching Quantum Leap... I also do have that same reaction when i find someone that wants to listen its like a "I.. Didnt think id get this far." 🤣 South Park is another show i enjoyed watching until around 2014ish, but I do what Butters does, whenever a door to door salesman shows up i also use it as an opportunity to witness to them.... Hey you knocked on MY door, you asked for it 🤣🤣. Side note, the clip about Rebecca, it has nothing to do with a blood transfusion (not your fault in thinking it would the title mentions it) but i did get a good laugh from it 🤣.

That's a beautiful poem, Dilip. Thanks for sharing your observation about how we need to be glad of what capacities we have. Your kindness helped three people too!

I have used Jwlfusion several times and it has worked fine, but it wouldn't work today. After designating the files and starting the merge, it ran briefly and stopped. I tried several times and it would not create the merge file.

First base, though a baseball term, is also used in describing successfully reaching the opening objective in a multiple objective endeavor

This is a fun one about having a sandwich PB&J is Never Wrong

The only sign that im looking is when the nations give their power to the UN.. otherwise, expectation postponed makes the heart sick.

i dare to write the following with pen and paper.....an almost forgotten skill that cannot easily be fraudulently stolen or twisted to suite a sinister change. Very few people will take the time to read it since it requires the laborious action of unfolding paper...but thats ok......that what i want.....a writing only valued by old people from a time long ago.

either that or take in a homeless baboon

New poem: I must clean my house and car very soon,

New story. A man sat down with a pen and paper wondering what kind of story he could start for a post on jwtalk which he thought about for a while and then he writes ----

That's good because wondering what to do to get the money a nice man walking by hands them a hundred dollars.

Some sources say it could face liquidity as early as July... https://betterworldcampaign.org/budget/the-secretary-general-is-underscoring-the-uns-financial-crisis-we-look-between-the-lines 🍿

I'm really looking forward to reading this one as well. Is there an estimated time when it will be available?

Tuesday, June 2 A kind man benefits himself, but the cruel person brings trouble on himself.—Prov. 11:17. We cannot control what others say or do to us, but we can try to control our response. And often the best response is to forgive. Why? Because we love Jehovah, and he wants us to be forgiving. If we remain angry and do not forgive, we are likely to act foolishly and perhaps suffer physically. (Prov. 14:17, 29, 30) When we let go of resentment, we prevent our heart from becoming damaged by bitterness. We also give ourselves a gift—we can start to move on and enjoy our life once again. How can you overcome hurt feelings? One way is by giving yourself time to heal. After receiving medical care, a person who has been severely injured needs time to heal physically. In a similar way, we may need time to heal emotionally before we are ready to forgive someone from the heart. (Eccl. 3:3; 1 Pet. 1:22) Pray, asking Jehovah to help you to be forgiving. w25.02 16-17 ¶8-11

"souse" figuratively, is often used as slang to describe someone who is thoroughly "soaked" in alcohol. I used that word in the only rhyming piece of a book I wrote. Previously, I had that book's text available here, as an attachment on talk net. If I get the PDF from an older computer, I might attach it, again b/c I have been asked about it. "Souse in the House" There's a souse that lives in our house; it's hard to know which one Sometimes it's our Dad, sometimes it's our Mum. Grandpa has a hangover; Grandma's fond of tippling. Growing up in our house could produce emotional crippling. Uncle is a pedophile, Auntie keeps denying Makes up lies and testifies 'gainst every kid he's eyeing. Childhood's a battlefield; the grownups are all keyed up' Young ones acting up beat, when all of us were beat up. A Matchstick Girl once lived there, although the shrapnel knicked her She made the choice and found the voice From victimized to Victor.

No, unfortunately. I didn’t ask because I called to provide feedback and details to the current situation outside of their circle.

*BOUNCING!!!!*. 😁🥳😃😄🥳🤗

Did they say why it's gone?

Pop, as in corn, used to be consumed on the cob, after popping; wonder who thought to remove the uncooked kernels first.

I was in a call with the Office of Public Information and the team handling the social media accounts are completely aware of such fake accounts and are working on it. They are also evaluating about bringing back the verified badge again. However, we will only know the result based on what we are seeing on the social media accounts within the next several days or weeks. For us, we just need to make sure we post correct information in this topic. Because search engines and AI searches are using our comments from this topic as their source of information. Instagram has the authority to evaluate each account and can remove a verified badge if it determines that further review is needed. If everything is verified again, the checkmark may return. Another possibility is that the OPI social media team adjusted something on the account, such as the profile details or links, which may have placed the badge on hold while Instagram reviews the changes. Once Instagram verifies the account updates, the verified checkmark may return.
