LMAO Jake

Bliz, is Michael a JW?


We have a hall down the street(or I should say used to, some moron burnt it down) I just politely tell them I am not interested, they respect that and go on. I don't think they are all that bad , and the fishermen that I know of are not preachy at all.

we used to have the jehovahs at my neighborhood at least once a month..(the lady across from us was one to keep her kids out of the military..)

but they came to my house on a day we were going to shoot skeet.. they knocked.. my buddy opened the door and they found 5 guys all cleaning shot guns..


for some reason they never returned..

I heard somewhere that piping plover is indian for "tastes like chicken" ..

The last JWs I had at my house were in 29 Palms, Ca. We were literally 10 miles from anywhere. My buddy and I lived next door to each other and worked the same watch. They would come to the door EARLY because it gets damned hot in the desert. All it took was my buddy turning the dog loose on them when they wouldn't leave.....
Its amazing how fast some of them can run and how far they will have to run in the desert!

Yes Slip... He's a JW

FWW, you're right about the Nation of Isllam...

Likely it was a PR move used to further distort his already twisted carnival image...

If more people practiced their faith no matter what it is, it would make for a better world.

Goose,
I agree with you but when your practicing interferes with mine, it is time for you to get off my doorstep (I don't mean you specifically). If the first "No" doesn't do it, expect a harsher response the second time.

answer the door nekkid, and be pleasent and invite them in works like a charm. The first and last time they came by I saw them standing outside, I stripped down in the kitchen and answered the door

Domination takes full concentration..

I'm with Goose on this one.

"If more people practiced their faith no matter what it is, it would make for a better world."

Virtually every faith calls for the people to spread the faith.

Anyone who professes to be Christian can learn something from the JWs, you don't need to climb on board with them, but just maybe they were put at a certain place at a certain time for a reason.

There is another kind of JW, deaf JW. everytime one of them comes to my door and knocks, my mom always answers to them and boy, she was a damn gullibile. she thought that i would be elated to see them because they were deaf like me. and they start toying my mom's feeble mind with their sermons, magazines, and phamplets. and she suggested to me that i should join them. i was very patient with them and i told them that i was busy and if they can leave me the eff alone.

JUst looking through and so this post. Those Motherfers came to my house on Friday my wife didn't answer the front door so what do they do. They go through the back yard and up on the porch to the back door. If I were home I would have grabed my f-in 12 gauge and shoved it in their face.

I can't believe they would have balls to do this.

Go Ugly Early

They use to come to my house and the last time they came we had a big (150 #) german Shepard who has since passed on. I calmly told them that they had 30 seconds to get off my property or my dog was coming out to "play". They have not been back since that day.

No boat, back in the suds.
