How'm I gonna spend my two bits at the five and dime?
by compound complex indo you remember the five and dime stores?.
whenever grandpa saw us kids, he gave us two bits (25 cents) each and, when feeling generous, four bits (50 cents).. back in the 50s, the late summer air was charged with excitement as we poor but studious urchins pored over what school supplies we would purchase with our then valuable coins.
whether school supplies or toys or what nots were on the must-get list scribbled out in our heads, we could spend quite some time determining how to allocate our dough.. how about you?

I remember woolworths along with greens and grants all five and tens as we called them.
the first day of school they ring the school bell we line up quietly the nuns stand guard with sour faces we walk silently to our places in our navy blue uniforms.
The day starts with a string of prayers ending with the pledge of allegiance. 12 years of catholic school

It makes you wonder just how far they're going to go with this power-grab before most jw's realize they've consumed all the crackers and wine and their heading for the throne.

I've done alot of things in my life that didn't turn out to be what i thought they would be but each time i've learned and tried to be wiser. Being a jw was just one thing that I tried out that wasn't the answer so i don't know.
making some wrong choices and having to pick up the pieces is just how it goes sometimes i wasn't born knowing what to do I had to learn some stuff.

Thank you even though I didn't know him personally I've read and sometimes responded to many of his posts and he seemed so genuine and we all considered him a friend.
