does anyone know a good location for taking photos of the wt factory building with the clock?
i could see it well from 140 broadway, where the red cube sculpture is.
i was on a high floor, though.
Is the Fulton Ferry stop the same as South St Sea Port and the old Fulton Fish Market? I've been away for ten horrid years.
The South Street Sea port is in the Manhattan side. You can take a water taxi to the Fulton Ferry stop. I am sure you will get a few good pictures. There are great views of the Watchtower property from the Manhattan side at the South Street Sea port. They have developed the area and is a wonderful place to sit and watch the activity on the east river.

You can also go to Fulton Ferry Landing and get some great shots. Be sure to get a slice of the best pizza ever at Gramaldi's.

Take a walk on the Brooklyn Bridge. Great view of the Clock.
i definitely look like a worldly person by jw standards... however i went to my old hall because they are remodelling and they are in the final p[hase.
it was not on purpose.
i had bnusiness on the street and happened to drive past.
Wow, that story confirms your handle, confusedandalone
I am sorry, but at least you know. Knowledge is power.
i regularly watch family feud.. homeland is a great show i watch every week, when it's in season.. metv has so many great programs---from taxi to the twilight zone.. what do you like watching?

I loved Three's Company. It was entertainment that required absolutely zero thought. It did not challenge your intellect, just simple raw entertainment.
it's obvious the bible is very clear on a actual hell of fire.
"cursed into the eternal fire with the devil and his angels", rev.20:15.
"lake of fire", rev.21:8 "fire and brimstone".
How bad can you be in a short life span that deserves eternal hell fire? If Hitler burned for a million years for each death he was responsible for does he still keep burning after the time is up?
i just found this video they released on their official website.
sorry if this was already posted.
(if not i thought some might have some thoughts about it).
I wish them all well. They all seem like nice people. They are sacrificing a lot for their beliefs. I hope it works out for them.
just to share a little about me:.
i was recently appointed an elder, about 6 months ago now, and that is exactly two years after my awakenning, but funny that the appointment came also about 2 years after i had completely lost all faith in god and had been leading a full time anti-jw life .
makes you wonder the role of the holy spirit in the entire nomination or appointment process.. .
Mr Excellency, your story is similar to mine - I learned TTATT about six months before I was appointed an elder. I was really struggling with a lot of things, including my faith at the time. If the HS really was directing things I should have been passed over.
The assembly bean burritos were the best. Although. it made sitting through the afternoon session difficult (at least for those sitting in my immediate vicinity).
What? You say there are no bean burritos!? Curses!. Then there is nothing I like about being a witness. Bring back the bean burrito and you may see me at the next convention. You may also see a few empty seats next to me.
the jw date-worshipped memorial has just completed its bleak worldwide commemoration.
that wasn't a dust cloud you saw; it was a millionfold hearts limply beating themselves into another round of great tribulation expectations.
i was knocked into a deep, deep sleep by the imagined experience of being at several thousand consecutive kingdom halls as the platformed drones spat forth the predictable sludge that, once released, hits and stains white clothing and bleach is useless.. we know that memorial attendance worldwide has dipped for two consecutive years since 2011 when it reached a high of 19,374,737 and for the promised land, obama's usa, the all time memorial attendance high was also 2011 when it hit over 2.5million (2,563,518) but shrunk in shame back to 2,502,055 in 2012 and spluttered upwards a handful or two to 2,504,114 last year.. so, what was attendance at the date-obsessed bore-fest this year in your neck of the woods?
I participated in counting a few times including memorials and circuit assemblies - this process is more an art than a science. I remember being told to count a specific section, when I came back no one could figure out who counted what. I have no idea if the section was double counted or not counted at all.
The physical act of walking up and down a row counting heads is not easy and is also very tedious. The counter usually comes up with shortcuts, which increases the speed but lowers the accuracy. I know I figured out how many seats were in my section and just counted empty seats.
Have anyone else participated in counting and realize that getting an accurate number is very difficult.
