just saw the movie "a beautiful day in the neighborhood" with tom hanks as fred rogers.
excellent acting and story-line.
it brought back many fond memories as a child.
Sea Breeze/ToesUp - thank you for the info on Mr. Rogers. I never sat/watched the show but would hear his voice in background when my child/nephew/niece were watching. I'd like to watch them all now -- are they available on Netflix? I must see the movie - again, thx/appreciate.
I only knew of the comedy version w/Eddie Murphy because my husband would watch late night on weekends. Wish I'd taken the time to watch Mr. Rogers with the kiddos - what a loss.

I have to see the movie - I only watched Eddie Murphy's comedic version few times - hilarious! Another great was Flip Wilson - his religion of 'what's happenin' now'.
i know of two older couples who have gone overseas to live in recent years.
one could be classified in my opinion as a “need greater” although i think it might also have to do with getting more for their money.
the other i think was seeking out a cheaper and more naturally beautiful environment to live in their retirement years.. what i wondered is if these people are disenchanted and bored with life in the states.
Puerto Rico has become a crime haven for several yrs now - it is beautiful but very sad for ones who planned to retire there. It's like Guatemala and too many other places natives won't return to even visit. Costa Rica safer but I've not had recent updates re/acquaintances who bought vacay/retirement home there but were enjoying and already flipping for different property last I heard. They had one break-in/invasion but didn't amount to much.
as jehovah’s witnesses, we were regularly told how awful a college education is.
i’m no longer associated with the religion but i am not so pro university.
it’s not because i think you are better off without a degree.
They aren't hiding their bias these days -- it's unreal. It was liberal late 60s in the bay area (Viet Nam protests and I didn't have problem choosing sides then - hated that war!) where I attended but I loved it - then. Now I prefer a more balanced view.
here is a screenshot from a youtube video (521 and the circus continues) where anthony morris blasts post-secondary college & university education.
''we will not need doctors or lawyers after armageddon.
so, anthony...what occupations do the society need '' today'' and after armageddon?
Hypocritical charlatans - such parasites.

Yes - I think one can't have enough education, however, with the political climate schools are not really teaching people to think for themselves. The curriculum doesn't seem to be what it once was. You have to believe in one side and if you don't agree with that position you'll be ridiculed and who knows what other negatives you will suffer. It's reality. Students are being brainwashed - this now starts in grade school (elementary) and clearly in high school and college.
Students need to hear more than one side of the party - differing opinions freely discussed but now it's difficult. Yrs ago different speakers were allowed on campuses -- far left/far right. Now the administrations are only encouraging one political side and find many ways to control the political agenda.

WOW - one has to be brave to venture life in Central America altho US is scary enough! I know Mexicans who have experienced horror stories visiting family/living in Central America - one family in Caribbean. I know this use to be popular but only desperate JWs would be forced to do this.
Know of 2 families that have beautiful homes in Mexico -- they drive to border, park their normal car and drive into Mexico in beater/clunker. I think Puerto Vallarta might be tad safer and know family that lives there half the year and love it.

Who the heck cares what 'we' (the the goon squad) needs in their fake scare tactic Armageddon. They sure as hell need doctors and lawyers all over the world in realty (NOW) to keep the circus alive. Cult is filty rich off of fantasy fear.
hi all.. i didn't want to post this in private because i want all to see what i saw.. the protest at the melbourne convention went superbly in my opinion.
the protesters and their banners were more than eloquent and succinct.
you could feel the emotion they all conveyed.
The protestors do reference jwfacts.com on the linked video above -- thanks dozy!

Indeed, a jwfacts.com banner would be perfect!
