Odd things...

[trystinn]

There are several wreaths on the front of our home, each of them gifts from friends, with stars strung across the middles with colored yarn. They are fairly mundane things, having never caused any alarm or concern. Frankly unless you're looking for the stars specifically you are bound to miss them completely. There's also a mezuzah on the front door frame, just to add a small touch of "WHATTHEFUCKitis", which has served as a lovely distraction when church's come a-knocking. Which they do often. We get quite a few missionaries and they've never noticed either, oddly enough.

Inevitably perhaps, someone noticed *something* today - there was a pamphlet stating "The End to False Religion" by the Jehovah's Witless Witness.

The irony.

My parents also live in a rural area. It's interesting that they seem to get more JWs than when they lived in the suburbs.

I have a little plastic skeleton (he even glows in the dark) that hangs on my front door to greet visitors. His name is Charlie. He's not just for Halloween--I plan on making him a Santa hat and bunny ears. I wonder what the JWs thought of him. My husband thinks it probably makes them more determined to save my soul.

I normally like their pamphlets (you know, for the amusement factor) but this one I found insulting.

Exactly - I've a suspicion that even though we technically live in a private community, the community members are allowing these folks to come and door knock.
