So twenty year olds are now partaking, interesting.
So is the 144,000 thing kinda pushed to the side now, do they still adhere to that?

FIrst time my family visited Niagara Falls was in either 1970 ot 1971 when the American side was turned off, yes, it was turned off, don't know how old you are, but that did happen

How do you get a word in edge-wise, when talking to a JW?
by Faithful Witness injust looking for some pointers, as i was never a jw.
i have an elderette coming over on friday, for another performance.. last week, i was under the impression that she was coming to answer some questions i had.
it quickly became clear that she came with a plan for the "conversation," and we went on an expedition from one passage of the bible to the next, while she made leaping claims, argued with herself and kept me confused and always with more than one question lingering in my mind, while she continued talking and talking.. when i have a conversation with someone, i tend to stop talking when they are speaking.

I wish she would come to my house ! I'm an expert at talking (or arguing) with them, had plenty experience with my mom.
If she goes on blabbering gibberish just say, excuse me, you still didn't answer my question and repeat it.
If she doesn't let you get a word in edgewise, I believe you said she's coming to visit you, as in your house, so remind her she's not showing you respect under your roof if she doesn't allow you to ask a question

I made my daughters cry last night.....
by Ugottabefresh in...when i told them i didn't believe anymore.
they cried like i'd never seen before.
my oldest, 10, pleaded with me that she'd do anything to get me to keep going to meetings ("i'll get a's on my report card!").

They both cried their eyes out, the oldest is 10 and she said she'd get A's on her Report Cards for you "come back to Jah"
By know means making fun of your offspring Ugottabefresh, but just think back to what you thought was the "gospel" at 10 years old, have no idea how old you are or if your male or female, but just look at the Beliebers who follow that idiot like their next breath depended on it, and I'm sure you've seen the newsclips of all the hysterical girls screaming at the latest moptops from England back in the 1960's.
It's like parents who for the first time hear "I hate you" or words to that effect from their firstborn, it tears them apart but then when the other kids that came along say that it's like " thank you, go clean your room".

Took my son (5 yrs) shooting for his first time.
by dazed but not confused ini went with my neighbor to an outdoor shooting range in the pawnee national grasslands in colorado.
its about 2 hours northeast of denver.
it was awesome.

Dazed - When you posted I guess you knew those who are against guns would post as well. Since I'm allowed my opinion as you are yours shooting at a range is one thing, but when they're in your home and you have kids so I'm sure you know that they can find things that you thought were out of there reach, so with that being said, my thoughts of those who have guns and kids in the house, hope I don't see you on the news one night how one kid shot his brother/sister/neighbor, etc., as you well know, it happens.

I remember an article in the NYTimes a few years ago about HRT and the responses came pouring in mainly from women of course. So many of them said I'm in my 70 or 80s and they still have hot flashes, so I guess it lasts forever !!
I keep my fan out year round and at night I open the window a bit, two minutes later I cool down and shut it, three minutes later I open the window, get up three minutes later and shut it again , three minutes later open the window again . . . . . .

One day I hope to get off the thryoid meds, I read that selenium and iodine supplements are just as good, so I got some research to do. I haven't had any ill effects from the levothroxine (sp) but I'm just thinking of the long term effect, since one time the Dr. bumped it up to 125 mg from 100 and I started getting pains in the back of my thighs, plus the fact their was no rhyme or reason why he bumped it up unless he get a bigger paycheck from big Pharma or something.
