For a more accurate depiction of what the West was like post Civil war, I recommend shows like Deadwood, or Hell on Wheels, as opposed to John Wayne movies.

A question for my friends in the USA about cowboys.
by punkofnice inas a kid growing up in the uk we used to play 'cowboys and indians' and watch high chaparal and bonanza along with other cowboy films.
later, in the 70's kung fu would be shown with caine going through the 'old west'.
we even had a chocolate bar that was marketed with a 'cowboy' theme...milky bar.. as far as i know the 'wild west' as shown on tvdidn't actually exist.. are there people that believe it did?.

I once saw an elderly person driving a small car and using their turn signal. I thought that was kind of unusual.

The movie Outbreak starring Dustin Hoffman was very good IMO.
I highly recommend Contagion if you haven't watched it. It's not quite as entertaining as Outbreak, but more cerebral and realistic.

Female presenter on JW Video
by Listener inthere is a video on jw org titled "what happens at a kingdom hall?
" i wouldn't suggest that you watch it as it's pretty sickly, as usual they are praying on emotions in order to encourage people to attend their halls.. the video is presented by a female but does show her face.
it just seems weird that they have allowed a woman to star in this very prominant role.

What they're telling the public and what's really happening is two different things..
You mean, as with everything else they do?

I really don't understand this
by keyser soze inwhy, if you're a health care worker who's been exposed to the ebola virus, would you get on an airplane and travel right after?.

Perhaps I missed it in the article since I read it quickly but it seems as though she traveled before it was known she was exposed.
She travelled before she started showing symptoms. But she had already come into contact with the virus.

I'd wake up from a bad dream, and couldn't move. I wasn't completely awake, but aware of my surroundings and realize I couldn't move. It was like something was sitting on my chest
I've had that almost identical experience on a couple of occasions. Half-asleep, but aware of my surroundings, feeling like something was on top of me. I even thought I heard whispers, and could see shadows in the room. Like you, I just chalked it up to the fear of demons instilled in me by the JW religion.

What happens after a couple of thousand years of paradise?
by Hortensia inmy guess is, god gets bored.. armageddon's over, the earth has been cleansed, only his sycophants have survived.
all is perfect.
after a millenium or three god gets bored.

After a millenium or three god gets bored. He sets up some damn loyalty test
Yeah. I don't think God can go that long without displaying how powerful he is in some way, being the omnipotent narcissist that he is. Maybe he'll create another Satan, and start the whole thing over again.

One Day assembly in Arizona- $17,000 !!
by AndDontCallMeShirley ini heard from a reliable source that a one-day assembly in arizona last weekend had a "cost" to the publishers of $17,000.. predictably, the elders were nice enough to obligate the attendees to a $6,000 donation to wt before the assembly "costs" (i.e.
"rent/extortion) were even met.
$11,000 rent plus $6000 in extra "donations".

Cook a pizza in under 30 seconds? Okay, that is impossible
According to Back to the Future Part II, we should be able to by now.
