It's an honest answer, and offered without rancour, robbie. To state that you seem atypical, at least according to my personal experience, is quite clearly a positive statement about JWs in general.

awful three piece suits???, my man, dont you know every girl crazy about a sharp

cannot count how many positive comments i have had as a consequence. One who is a
minister of God cannot go around slovenly dressed!
.you cant judge a man by the shirt on his back. (I believe the band Ben Folds Five had some lyrics to that effect and I thought I quite liked them and could readily relate to them. I really wish I knew the song)

Thing is Robbie, the ladies are alright in their floral dresses, even though they seem overdressed. But the blokes?? It's 40*C out there man!! I'm on the beach i'm not saying that's what JW's should wear, but here, hardly no guys wear shirts and most girlies have bikinis.
Everywhere I've been, here and abroad, there the same.

I can see your point of view in a way, but I like being in touch with the Earth with my bare feet. I do wear shirts outside, of course, but I've always found it easier to gain people's trust when act like one of the locals. See I too am spreading a message, the difference is I wait for questions rather than just come upto you and hand you a copy of watchtower and tell you "this is what you need". Different Strokes,eh?

What do you think of the cricket?

Still following that hug-a-man sport are ye? Oh well, what are you going to do

BTW, the first test was drawn. After Sth Africa was in a commanding position with 2/330, they were all out for 450.
Then Austrlia were 3/30 before Captain Clarke made 250,Hussey 100, and Cowan 136.
They had them 6 for on the last day with score level so they called it. Things are looking up for the Aussies and the Adelaide test should be a ripper

Other than what I wrote to Robbie, I really hope the aussies win. The Sth Africans are terrific players, but with Clarke playing like this with the captaincy (3 or 4 double hundreds this years, and he could've had another triple but declared for the team).
Cowan and Hussey looked good too.
If the Aussie bowlers can hold it together they've got a chance. Whoever loses the toss at Adelaide will be unlucky, it's likely to be a road and if the bowling side can keep 'em under 350 for the first innings then it's anyone's game.

Oh stop it. I know you try, and I may fail whatever test, but I can tell for a fact some JW's are deliberately dishonest.

And dont forget , I've said plenty of positive about the JWs

hug a man sport, clearly you have never been in a ruck with props, flank forwards
second rows and a number eights bearing down upon you. I wont call cricket a pansy
sport, after all, having a ball hurled at you at ninety miles per hour can do you some
damage, but its bad form and unsportsmanlike behaviour when one needs to resort to
verbal tirades of visiting batsmen!

Union just got too technical, which doesn't really seem to go with those big beefy neckless heads (y'know, like Mike Tyson - That guy has NO NECK)

BTW in my last season I was the only one who wore no helmet batting. I figured if they tried to bounce me then at least they weren't going for the stumps - and I do love a good hook shot 🙂

you fail , you failed the test, you simply could not do it, how sad, how very sad, it
seemed beyond you simply to say a kind and positive thing and leave it at that and
instead we are now being treated to the usual insinuations and cynicism. Id shave my
head, dawn an orange smock and instead of pinging a triangle, id ping my ear if I were
you, see if its makes a resonant sound.

Union is an art form, league has stripped it of all its cut and thrust, you cannot win
turnovers like you can in union by sheer strength, as soon as you are tackled, you
simply go to ground and no one can contest for the ball, its like a dumbed down
version, like draughts as opposed to chess.

Stop being such a sook.

I am inspired by the JWs anti violence stance. Truly.

Better?

I had a crush on her when she came out first,
but She went down in my estimation after that fabulous album
"Parallel Lines".

there you pass, although you had to sit the test twice, never the less, I can hardly be accused of being a suck up.
