Chicken Surprise

A couple go for a meal at a restaurant and order the 'Chicken Surprise'.
The waiter brings the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot.

Just as the wife is about to serve herself, the lid of the pot rises slightly and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams Back down.

'Good grief, did you see that?' she asks her husband. He hasn't, so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and he sees two Little eyes looking around before it slams down..

Rather perturbed, he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening, and demands an explanation.

'Please sir,' says the waiter, 'what did you order?'

The husband replies, 'Chicken Surprise.'

'Ah! So sorry,' says the waiter, 'I brought you Peeking Duck!'

I have no idea who wrote the lyrics but this little goodie

will get you motivated to move around and meet new friends.

It's sung to the tune of our Song #123, "Move Ahead."

Move  Around

Move around! Move around at the Kingdom Hall,

Find a row, say Hello to someone you met last Fall.

Take a seat, plant your feet, have yourself a ball,

And get to know your family.


How many times have you walked through the door,

And staked a claim on the seat you had before?

Change your seat, you may meet Brother / Sister New,

Keep changing your locality.

Move around! Move around, help the spirit flow,

Change your aisle, give a smile to someone you do not know.

You won't die, if you're shy, it will help you grow,

And add to your maturity.

Meet all the others, and not just a few,

'Cause all the brothers would like meeting you.

It's our loss if the moss grows all over you,

So move around more frequently.

Move around! Move around, don't be finicky,

Change your spot, please don't rot, 'cause of immobility.

Move up close, get a dose of Theocracy,

We know you'll like it if you try.

You'd give your life for a friend, I am sure,

And share your wealth to help brothers endure.

So let's start being loving to one and all,

By changing seats in the Kingdom Hall.

THE COFFEE BREAK

Author Unknown

I have some friends who like to go

Door - to - door in rain or snow.

Hot or cold they do not mind,

They serve Jehovah and count their time.

Usually they’re bright, sharp and quick.

To keep this up, they must have a trick.

When emotions drain and feet get cold,

They head for the place where coffee is sold.

It fills their tummies and warms their hearts,

And keeps them at their teaching arts.

Tired or cold, they never miss.

Surely Jehovah allows for this!

Though not divinely or scripturally supported,

This break is necessary as reported.

Middle morning or afternoon,

Sometimes both, but never too soon!

Jehovah...we know lives are at stake,

But please allow for the coffee break!

You’d think from this rhyme that coffee’s first.

Actually the situation could be worse.

We could quit when we are tired

And leave the service when not inspired.

But when we weaken we have to stop and

Head straight for the

I often wonder if the Apostle Paul

Had a

near his Kingdom Hall?

REASONS FOR NOT MAKING PIONEER HOURS

1. I was not able to make my 70 hours because I had car trouble at the last minute.

2. I got very sick the last 3 days of the month and had to take it easy because I am getting married.

3. Married me a wife this month, will make it up later.

4. Just got married and couldn’t keep my mind on the things of Jehovah.

5. Forgot to start at the beginning of the month.

6. Fell asleep after work the last day - woke up and it was a new month.

7. May: I have permitted myself to get fat. I don’t feel good and have no energy. I will reduce.

Dec: One day soon I will lose the excess weight. Then I am sure I will feel better.

8. At the beginning of the month had car trouble and near the last I was attacked by a cat and my writing arm was chewed on.

9. It rained so hard we thought we would have to join Noah in the ark.

10. Unforeseen circumstances, mainly bad air.

11. Physical exhaustion due to extreme heat and pre-marital arrangements.

Will make up time in cooler months.
