  I had just left home depot in my work van and the radio DJ said a plane had just hit the world trade center. I thought so what could a small plane do as far as damage. My next stop was at another supplier they had a tv on showing what was going on. Thats when i saw it was a passenger jet that hit the towers not a small plane. Soon after another one hit the other tower. That's when I knew we were under attack and i feared for my 18 year old son would have to go to jail because war was just around the corner. That didn't happen about going to jail but the world did change and 17 years later this county is still at war. Everyone I knew was kind of in a shock state for serveral weeks. After the planes started to fly again things seem to go back to a strange normal. About a month after that my wife and I flew to Hawaii for vacation. Still Totally ADD

  What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

  i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

  however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

  I looked at various sites but I felt bored with them. I am not much of a computer person but when my wife told me about this site I was hook at the get go. This is still pretty much the only place I go to. Still Totally ADD

  my wife and me have a booth at the local framers market.

  there is usually about 12 t0 14 vendors each week on a small short street in town.

  what is funny on each end of this short street are cart setups with 3 people on each cart.

  Thanks everyone all good comments. I don't think they are paying for anything. Only those who are vendors with the market pay. It's only $10 per week. They setup their carts on one corner of the street, just off our street and the other one at the end of our street just off our street in a small city park. It looks like they are part of the market put they are not. I dont know if a permit by the city is required for them. Still Totally ADD

  Where’s the Anger Toward Child Abuse

  they can smash a glass expressing their disdain for higher education.

  where is their anger over child abuse or domestic violence?

  these are actually issues worthy of anger and even a violent display in order to gain attention.

  The borg never cared about children or women it is all about the 144000 going to heaven and their rulership with Christ. They have often said the greek scriptures is mostly for them and not the other sheep. So why would they care about child abuse? It's the lesser form of humans problem not theirs. Still Totally ADD

  hadn't seen a thread started on this so i thought i'd start a tribute thread to one of the great actors / entertainers over the years we've enjoyed watching.

  he had a wicked, dry sense of humor, especially on the johnny carson show, great acting in deliverance, so if anybody would like to share stories, you tube snippets of talk show appearances, or pieces from movies- feel free to do so !

  rest in peace burt, you brought us some really cool entertainment, thanks for the memories.

  That 1978 tonight show was great. I truly miss the old tonight shows I grew up with. My god I was 24 years old back then and only 32 years away from leaving the borg. One of my links to the outside world back then.

  At any rate RIP Burt you gave us humor and enterainment when we needed it. Thanks flipper for posting this thread. Still Totally ADD

  Well that YouTube was a eye opener. It leaves alot of options on what to do. Jamestown ny is a small town and the newspaper office is close by. I don' want to cause any problems for the market. It is a small group and those who are there depends on that income. I think a simple sign placed near them with jwfacts on it would work real well maybe other web sites as well. I could place those signs in place before the market opens. We will see. Thank you for all your ideas. Still Totally ADD

What is funny on each end of this short street are cart setups with 3 people on each cart. During todays 4 hour long framers market all they did was set in groups of three behind their cart sign. Not once did they talk to anyone. It was so sad watching them but then I thought what a easy way to get their time in. Then I thought maybe next week l will put up a sign near them that has jwfacts on it. I wonder how that would affect them? Maybe they would move to the indoor mall 5 miles away. Lol. Just thought you all would like to hear this story. Still Totally ADD

  Dealing with nightmares

  by Freedom rocks in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i had some terrible dark nightmares when i was studying which disappeared once i got baptised.

  i think it was psychological based on the fact i believed jehovah was protecting me after i was baptised.

  i had a nightmare tonight after just under a year of being out of the borg and woke up feeling a bit lost because in the past i'd have prayed and then gone back into a peaceful sleep but since i don't pray anymore i wasn't sure how to comfort myself to go back to sleep.

  Yes it is called PTSD. I would suggest you look for some professional help. I did many years ago and it proved to be very helpful and no more nightmares. Cults have some very serious consequences on our psyche and PTSD is one of them. Take care of yourself you are worth it. Good luck to you. Still Totally ADD
