  What I wish I had known at 18

  by NewYork44M in

  the financial times had an article with the above question.

  the author asked various people to answer the question.. https://www.ft.com/content/169705e4-b4dd-11e8-b3ef-799c8613f4a1.

  while i was not interviewed, if i was asked this question i would say that i wish i had known in 1975, when i was 18, that i was raised in a cult and that the continued focus on armageddon over my lifetime was a cruel joke.

  Leaked videos - Why?

  by NewYork44M in

  thank you to those that have passed on "leaked" videos.

  one point that i have not seen discussed is "why" apostates are getting these videos.. are videos getting out because of a lack of internal controls, or are there more than a few disloyal insiders that are more than happy to pass on inside information.

  or, is there a strategic intent of releasing leaked videos?.

  just finished a 7-day cruise from nyc on norwegian cruise line (ncl- gem).

  this is my first cruise in 30 years, so my past experience does not count.. overall, a great experience.

  ncl does a great job.

  Turning 60 today (Happy Birthday to me)

  by NewYork44M in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is my birthday today.

  given that i turn 60 today means that i graduated high school in 1975. time flies when you are having fun.. i remember the council i got about not worrying about a career because this wicked system was rapidly coming to a conclusion.

  now i am 60 and most of those bastards are dead and the end is still in the future..
