This plan had some drawbacks however; for example, not everyone to whom he gave these items opened them, for they already had their own; one 24-year-old sister he gave it to passed the unneeded magazine on to her 70-year-old, single, grandmother.

--A Difficult Workday--

The next day Rick had to go to his job as a pilot and he got up early in the morning, had a rushed breakfast and headed out the door to the car but wouldn't you know it, the battery was dead. Rick immediately looked under the hood and saw the cables to the spark plugs had been taken off and the battery well a rat had chewed it so acid had leaked, he called the cab and said to Jane "don't worry babe I be back to get the car fixed."

Well, she had not heard from him all day and it was several hours past the time he usually gets home so she began to text some his co-workers but wasn't sure who he was flying with that day. "Surely just one would text me back, but alas nothing." Then she began to pace the floor, and decided prayer would be better for her. She no longer got the Amen out and the phone rang and rang and rang as she was fearful of picking up because "Hellooooo!!! my sweety I'm in the hospital have a broken Collar bone, and a fractured sternum the Cab got hit by a supersonic light so I never was able to fly out on the plane so when you can, come on over to the hospital and take me home!" Jane's fear was realized but not to the extent it could have been so she called Adam to help her get to the hospital.

Jane and Adam had quite the surprise when they saw poor Rick - there was no way he was coming home today! Disappointed as they were, they both settled in for the night, Jane in the bedside recliner and Adam on the waiting room chesterfield. One of the nurses recognized Adam from one of his previous stays in the hospital and the nurse said, "weren't you one of the guys involved in the taco building fire a few years ago?" Adam replied, "No I just liked eating there, but I was in here because I had a concussion."

--What's New With John--

Rick ears perked up and a smile wiped across his face as he could hear coming up the hallway, as yet some distance away, the crumegeonally yet loveable voice of an ole friend, John the Circuit Overseer. John, the Circuit Overseer, comes quickly into the room and says "You will do anything to get attention! Move over and let me take a power nap." Rick says, "It is so good to see you John, I was wondering how you have been since receiving word of your new assignment."

John says, "Overwhelmed but it is an assignment from Jehovah and with his help we can do anything. There is just one thing, it is in the North Dakota circuit, and I tell you, if there is one place I did not want to go it was North Dakota, so we see how Jehovah has a sense of humor."

"Yes, John he certainly does and besides that he knows you can handle it and be of much encouragement to the brothers and sisters up north. How do you feel about having to live in a different home every week?" asked Rick of John. "It is very exciting to accept the hospitality and love expressed by so many different personalities." John continues: " I don't mind living each week with different ones; I don't like the cold and will certainy rely on Jehovah to help me - I had actually dreamed of one of the Carribean islands, but alas! Here we come N. Dakota."

--Hospital Difficulties--

On that note the nurse come into the room and said: "We have to do some work on Rick, would you mind stepping out for a few minutes?" They were going to do a routine blood test, but that may be a problem for Rick because Rick is absolutely terrified of needles and just seeing one reduces him to a blubbering mess. Just like Gail, a sister in the congregation, who faints when she smells rubbing alcohol.

Rick was getting more queasy by the second until zap! The nurse used a butterfly needle and it was over before it started. Rick was white as a sheet from his queasiness but he survived to tell the story to Gail, the sister in his congregaton who faints at the odor of rubbing alcohol. She said, "Oh man Rick, so at this rate, when will Jane be in the hospital, since you and Adam have both been there a couple times lately?"

"Maybe in 8 months if something doesn't happen soon, if you know what I mean," says Rick. Oh, my, are you saying Yes! Yes! She is pregnant if you do not be afraid of such a word! But if you do you are in a bad way for they just finished the Bible School for Maried Couples and are looking forward to a life of serving Jehovah full time.

--Assignment--

After a few anxious months, it proved to be another female problem and she was okay to start planning for their new assignment! They were assigned to Wausaukee, Wisconsin, with only about 40 publishers and a big territory, applied to another congregation for help and adventure, to cover some territory which had not been able to get covered. Rick and Jane needed to get prepared for the move which included going to the top of the Artic: the new assignment included learning the Eskimo language and learning to fish in snow huts, but then Rick realized he messed up the spelling in Google Maps and actually Wisconsin has a balanced climate of only several months of snow and ice.

Jane said, "Oh what a relief. I didn't want to say a word to be supportive of where we are going, at least we can still see our friends on the weekend now." Their friends from Hell and surrounding areas in the Gregory Congregation threw them a going-away party. Everyone was both excited and happy for Rick and Jane but also sad, but knew they would return with many awesome experiences to encourage all.

The party was held at the Lakers arena all had pitched in for some tickets to see the Raiders and Vegas team play ice hockey. They knew Rick and Jane love the sport, but this was still a small town team, but they still enjoyed seeing the Hell Lakers battle it out with the Vegas team. It was quite an action packed evening and as all good things must come to an end Rick and Jane headed out the door and went back to the duplex to pack some more things up.

--Off to Wausaukee--

"Time to sleep," said Rick, "for we have to get up at 4am to drive - its a 48 hour drive to the new location because we're going to stop along the way a lot and see some stuff." Jane was happier at that notion - she remembered her dad would drive without stopping, then pullover and sleep in the car, couldn't wind windows down cause of mossies.

One of the things Rick and Jane wanted to do on the trip was to go up in the Sears Tower as they passed through Chicago on their way to their assignment in Wausaukee, Wisconsin. Once up there Rick started to get scared and Rick hated heights and he got dizzy everything was wonky, Jane grabbed the Dr, and the Dr said so he have carpool syndrome? The Doc suggested Rick go back to street level and so he did, disappointed but knowing he could at least see Jane's pictures. Rick was so embarrassed but realized that it could happen to anybody.

Later that day Rick and Jane spotted a Chinese Restaraunt. They thought the prices were reasonable and went in and relaxed and got their thoughts back. They enjoyed a nice meal and plotted out the rest of their journey.

--Through Wisconsin--

The next day they passed through Milwaukee and while there they decided to - "Well," they said, "we are trying to think what's new we could write to make it more fun, but my brain has frozen cold from the winter setting in and flu as well. Hmm! where could we go from here guys?" Stop at the community of Menomonee Falls just off Hwy 41 as they had never seen the Menomonee Water Falls before but first they wanted to stop at Greenfield to see what the town looked like as it happens that Rick's last name is Greenfield and he wondered what 'his' town looks like. They looked it up on jw.org and it turns out there is a Kingdom Hall in Greenfield on Layton Avenue.

Then Rick & Jane decided to go check out the falls. They were loud, beautiful cascading. They felt revitalised but at the same time disappointed that the Falls was not more spectacular. So they decided to head on up to Wausaukee and check out the apartment they rented before nightfall.

As they headed up Hwy 41 toward Wausaukee, Rick heard a faint hissing sound from the engine, so he pulled over and steam began to roll out from under the hood and so he dialed up Adam as Rick knew nothing about cars. Adam said that Rick should wait for the radiator to cool, cause that's where the smoke was coming from and the solution was to chuck a raw egg into the radiator the white from the egg would fill the holes till they could get to the next servo/mechanic. Rick shrugged, but then realized he had no egg with him.

Jane suggested, "Why don't we call triple A," as she waves the AAA card in the air, "maybe they can tow us to a mechanic," Rick's eyes reveal a, "why didn't I think of that" twinkle. So they tried to call AAA, but their cell phone was dead as there were no towers in the City of Wausaukee because it's in the middle of who knows where? "Modern Technology," said Rick, "Sooooo! Handy when you need it." But they carried a Jerry can with plenty of water so they filled the radiator and decided to keep driving and stopping til they got near a town and had the radiator fixed but not before they found the local Kingdom Hall where they confirmed the meeting time and looked forward to meeting the 40 or so friends in their new assignment.

--The Wausaukee Congregation and Home--

Some other statistics on the congregation are they are very tall people, even the sisters are over 7 feet tall. Rick and Jane felt tiny. "'Must be great drinking water here,'' said Rick. Many of the friends there were either auxiliary or regular pioneers so Jane and Rick decided to go join in the preaching with their new friends but first they figured they should start unpacking so they could get in their service clothes.

Their apartment was next door to the Kingdom Hall. The Brothers saw to it that Rick and Jane could use the House since it was owned by the Brothers and wanted them to feel welcomed and care for it too. Rick and Jane walked in and immediately thought to themselves, "This place is great, except for one thing - needed a change in color. The place was still trapped in the browns and apricot colors of the 70's, so Brother Skinner set about arranging for some new paint and carpet to give the place a 'beachy' feel. Light wood coloured planks on the floor, soft blues and greens. Then unfortunately, the brothers discovered there would be a 6 month delay in delivery! So they bought some rugs and made do, fixed what they could & concentrated on getting to know their new family that Sunday at the meeting.

They were interested in seeing if the rumor about them being 7 feet tall was true, well most of them were normal height, except for Brother High Tower and Sister Tall Yolanda. They were both Austrian. They said, "Allo we are so verdy please." And Rick said, "Pardon me?" And they answered: "Yes, sure, we pardon you, but vat badness did you do?" At this Rick realised that they must not speak English too well so he decided to just say, "Well my friend Adam back in MI Hell we went to Gilead school we made a bet to see where we would end up. He went to the California dreaming, and we ended up here. So good for you guys. Yeah? I'm sorry, I meant to say we went to the Bible School for Christian Couples, I get them mixed up sometimes since the BSCC is so new; Adam wants to go to Gilead but first he must find a wife and you know how that goes, haha," Rick explained.

--Adam's Search--

So Adam put in an advertisement in the following KM and Watchtower. "One good wife who wants go travel the seas and be a missionary with me? please reply." And he gave this KM and Watchtower to all the single sisters he thought to be eligible and posted it on the Jwforumnet. He thought advertise, advertise far and wide. But would, it could, it work?

This plan had some drawbacks however; for example, not everyone to whom he gave these items opened them, for they already had their own; one 24-year-old sister he gave it to passed the unneeded magazine on to her 70-year-old, single, grandmother. "Cougars was not listed or unlisted," said sister Granny. "I have talent," she smiled, "I can cook a good old fashioned roast. Its worth a try. I am not emotional anymore. That's gotta be something. The say in the truth 1 is never retired just cause have grey hairs and wrinkles."

Adam wished that this was only a dream but nope, he had to reply now, and he said, "But someone else gave you that magazine, I meant it for my special girl whom I already am with, and her name is," Adam tactfully said, ''I always need an aunt. I have no family. Could you help me there." He said her name would be Komiko. She was a Japanese.exchange he met at the recent district convention.

--Settling In Wausaukee--

Meanwhile in Wausaukee, Wisconsin, after some weeks Rick and Jane settled in well in their new home; Rick got a part-time job as a deck hand on board the Scurvy Crew fishing boat. The captain was fine with Rick's needs for not doing any over time so he doesn't miss meetings etc.; transport person for Messar Funeral Home located at 513-17 1st Street, Wausaukee.

Adam was really an undercover agent for NCIS L.A. They knew they were secretly transporting drugs. Adam was however well paid.

Summary of entire story thus far:

Rick Greenfield (only a fictional character, not based on me), an elder, and Jane, his wife, both pioneering, have recently graduated the Bible School for Christian Couples and have moved to their first assignment, a small congregation with a large territory in Wausaukee, Wisconsin. They formerly lived in Hell, Michigan, and shared a duplex with a single pioneer, named Adam.

---

[My sentence:]

Adam knew this forensics job was getting serious when he was investigating and discovered a cache of drugs at the bottom of a pit; prior to this Adam had no idea how many drugs were in this Hell hole.

[surfergirl]

There was enough to feed a small hungary nation. If one was to purchase this 100kgs quantity...The Narcotics were happy to get it of the streets....

[Greenfield]

Adam realized that this job was a lot more complex than his old job as a fry cook, but between this job's extra pay and the money he could get selling the duplex, he could afford to move to the city and serve where the need is greater in a foreign-language congregation there.

[surfergirl]

Adam liked the Spanish/Portugese language..& since so many come from Mexico and Columbia. To the Us he thought he could get some training. It is a

Beautiful language` He liked to watch Zoro. To get his Accento`...

[Greenfield]

Adam thus decided to move to Canton, Michigan to become a member of the Canton North Congregation to assist the Portuguese group there, the only one in the state.

[rocket]

Adam was so happy to get out of Hell but was sad to leave behind so many friends.

[Greenfield]

Meanwhile, Rick after a few days realized he was going to have to choose between the fishing boat deck hand job and funeral home transport person job.

[surfergirl]

Fishing is better than Transporting human bodies. Rick thought I rather have the smell of the sea, the wind in my hair.Have some wild stories to tell. Like catching a 100kg Blue fin tuna.

[Greenfield]

But he was soon disappointed realizing that he would never get a tuna as tuna do not live within hundreds of miles of Wausaukee; but he nevertheless enjoyed himself trying to get a bass bigger than the bass from Hell.

[surfergirl]

So how big does the Bass Get around here he thought..May be I could also join the Swamp people catching wild gators? Must keep my options open he thought..

[Greenfield]

but then he realized there are no gators in Wisconsin, for which Jane was thankful. Meanwhile in the Canton North Congregation, Adam was out in service and an irate householder told him to go to Hell, so Adam replied, "I already came from there," and the householder just had to know what that meant and so the householder calmed down and asked Adam what he meant.

[surfergirl]

Adam said ''Did you not here that the Pope announced in recent years there is no such thing as hell? Just a bad teaching really....

[Greenfield]

and that hell according to the Bible is simply the unconscious state that the dead are in," and he read and explained to the man Psalms 146:4, and continued, "Hell is also the name of a town west of here, and I came from that town to move to this area for the main purpose of sharing with others what the Bible says about how this world will soon change," and he was able to read Psalms 37:10, 11 and to place the magazines featuring the Awake! on how this world will soon change. The man took the magazines and said, "Forgive me for my rudeness, I had just found out that I've been laid off from my job and I was so angry, but I am curious to see what this has to say about this all changing soon."

[surfergirl]

Why my friend there will be plenty of chores for everybody. Please let me show you Isaiah 65:22 on wards. the bible also speaks of each one having

their own vineyards and fig trees and even our homes. No one trying to claim for that piece of land in Oklahoma..There is room for all and plenty to share

and be happy about. Travel the wild seas and you can stay afloat. What do you think about all of this Friend.?

[Greenfield]

The man was happy to hear it and looked forward to Adam's next visit, so with that Adam left, happy that his morning in the ministry had been so productive.

As a reminder, only one sentence at a time, not including finishing others' sentences.

[rocket]

Rick decided to take just one more door as he was encouraged by the fact that he had gotten to read a few scriptures and so he proceeded up the walkway of the next house when suddenly......

[Greenfield]

out of NOWHERE, he saw that this driveway in rural Wisconsin was several miles long. He went back to the car and told Jane and the older couple (Wausaukee locals) with them, "Oh man, this one we need to drive down too!", for which the older couple laughed within themselves and thought, "Typical city boy."
