Anybody get an inactive notice from twi? You know, to let you know you haven't been to fellowship in a long time? It's kinda like calling up an ex-girlfriend from 10 years ago to say, "Hey, just so you know, we're through!"

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."-George Santayana. As long as there's one person suffering from twi (an insider, a family member outside cut off from an insider, and so on), twi is relevant to someone. twi is making a lot FEWER people suffer- and was never a large organization to begin with- but to have ONE person suffer is still too many. On the other hand, twi's legacy is an excellent source of suffering, if one wishes to find more modern, up-to-date suffering. Some of its successors have taken "the best" of the tools for suffering still available, and have started over, without apology and without concern they won't end up the same way as the group they left.

I hope to get a copy for ya ham, maybe next week. They've got it dressed up on their fridge or something.

Apparently so.

Shhhhhhhh! (I don't think they know I'm gone yet.)

Interesting that each category got at least one vote. Geez, I guess we're just not like-minded. JT

You might be a TWI tool if you save all year, quit your job to drive three days in the summer heat to spend two weeks in sweltering humidity in a tent with a few hundred other people in "scenic" Northern Ohio where the water tastes like.... All this so you can have the "blessing" of "volunteering" to do a menial job and to have the privilege to sit all day in another tent listening to men of God wannabees spouting their pseudo wisdom. You also might be a TWI tool if when you return home from said event, you talk about what a blessing it was to attend when your non-twi neighbor comes over to show you pictures of their trip to Disney World, or Cancun. You are definitely a tool of TWI if when you look at these pictures of folks having fun while swimming in crystal blue water by lovely waterfalls you think, "What a waste of time! I spent my vacation serving God!!"

Well - - Here It Is! Post 5,000 And I thank all of my fellow posters here at this Cafe.....without you I would have nobody to talk with and hence.......have no posts at all.

I don't know if twi is worth talking about or not. Talking about them doesn't make them go away. Sometimes talking about it diffuses the pressure. Sometimes it doesn't.

Or perhaps old puke from last night's bad drunk. It's still fun to make fun of memories of them worshiping over the porcelain god and speaking in liquid screams. Shot 'o Drambuie anyone?

Maybe "old hat" would be a better way to describe the organization.

As it is now, they hold up signs that read, "Will PREACH for food."
