  My thoughts on hating the WTS.

  by kwintestal in

  " i was thinking today about hating the wts, and you know i really do, and for many reasons which i won't really get into here.. on this thought, i imagined the jwd (jesus' wacky discussion forum) website of 2000 years ago.

  i'm sure many of jesus' new followers would start threads about having their hands cut off, being stoned and the secret backroom shenanigans of the pharisees.

  all there is, is hate here!

  hate is destructive, it will eat at you until it poisons your whole life.
  
  The best way to get even is to love your life with every ounce of your energy. Don't give them even a second thought.

  do you find there are significant differences in religious commitment across the atlantic?

  feel free to chip in if your from another country which is even more die hard / soft and slushy than the us /brits.

  I get the impression that Americans as a whole have more of a collective mentallity and like having someone tell them the way things should be - as if they ar elooking for a headship figure to guide them. Almost all of the new religions come out of the states.
  
  Could it be that you are all missing King and country and shrugged off being part of the empire a bit too early? ;-)

  ok i'm ready to take a vacation and i'm suffering from information overload.. last year i went to iberostar in cozumel june 10 thru 17 - the absolute worst vacation of my life!

  it rained 29 inches in 6 hours and 50 inches the whole week.

  the power was out and a state of emergency was declared and everything was flooded and wet.. so this year i'm looking at the mayan riviera or perhap turks & caicos or st. lucia- any suggestions (be detailed).

  the diving in Cancun is fab, I did my PADI advanced the year before last out there. Problem is that Cancun is a hole with little more to do than get drunk in crappy bars on the days you aren't diving

  2 days in NY, 2 days in LA, what do you do?

  guys and girls, mrs slh and i are emigrating to the promised land of australia in august and the cheapest way to get there with the best luggage allowance is via the us.

  as it's a round the world ticket we can stop twice on the way and have decided to spend 2 days in ny and 2 days in la.

  so, we've got limited time and don't want to spend an absolute fortune (so disneyland is out).

  Sorry Sassy I didn't pick up on your message, I wasn't being rude. Thanks for the suggestion but we are going to be really pushed for time and Mrs SLH isn't keen on meeting 'internet people' on what is likely to be our only holiday this year (yes I know, she doesn't get the whole interweb thing and whilst I would love to meet everyone I have to keep the boss happy. Maybe when we do the world tour back to visit the UK in a couple of years time and don't have 18 tons of luggage!)
  
  So for New York we have:
  Guggenheim
  NY Library
  Empire State Building
  Statten Island Ferry (A definite)
  Bronx Zoo
  MOMA (This is a definite, I have always wanted to see it)
  Rockefeller Centre
  Times Square
  Central Park
  St Pats (maybe, I would love it but Mrs SLH hates churches after the week I spent dragging her round Paris!)
  
  As for a hotel I have found a little place called the Amsterdam Court Hotel for $100/night which looks great and pretty comfortable and is right in mid town close to Cewntral Park and Times Square
  
  In LA we've got:
  Venice Beach - this is a most definite, one of my fave films was the remake of Romeo and Juliet filmed there
  Santa Monica Beach (Isn't there a race circuit near there?)
  Jay Leno Show
  Hollywood
  
  Looks like I am going to have one hell of a week! Any more suggestions for LA would be cool

  Great, loads to do in NY and I have found a pretty good hotel mid town near Times Square for less than $100/night.
  
  What is there to do and see in LA tho? I've seen the movies but I don't want to waste two days going there if all i can see is either Disneyland or take some "Famous peoples houses" tour
  
  If you had the choice would you visit LA or San Fransisco?

  So, we've got limited time and don't want to spend an absolute fortune (so Disneyland is out). Where would you stay and what things would you say are absolutely not to be missed in each of the two cities?
  
  I'm relying on you guys, I haven't a clue and booking online is ok so long as you know not to stay at hotel X cos it's 30 miles away from anything!
  
  Cheers

  Smokers - How do you justify it to yourself?

  by AlmostAtheist in

  i've been smoking since i quit being a witness.

  i smoked for a week when i was 15, i quit when i started studying.

  my "smoking" then was only a few cigarettes, i was by no means addicted.

  It won't happen to me, I've got to die one day, it helps me through the day, everyone deserves one vice
  
  Need I go on?
  
  I stopped in November using the Allan Carr book - The Easy Way To Stop SMoking. It gradually changes how you feel about ciggies and is the most effective method I have come across

  Married - since Sept '03 to my total soul mate and am very lucky to have had a couple of narrow escapes before meeting her
  
  Kids - none yet (that I know of) but plans to start a family next year once we are settled in Oz
  
  Pets - 2 cats, Spike and Drew the coolest cats you will ever meet. They are coming to Oz with us because despite the cost we just couldn't leave our boys behind
  
  Grandparent - Hell no! but I do have one solitary grand parent left alive but he's very ill and I'll miss him when he's gone.
  
  Hobbies - well currently I'm spending alot of time in the gym because I live away close to work during the week but I want to learn how to play guitar and I am a certified PADI scuba diver
  
  Mrs SLH and I are moving to Australia in August to have a total downshift in lifestyle. I am a software engineer and am fed up with the rat race that I've had to buy into here; I just want to be able to live comfortably enough without all the stress and hassle you get in the UK
