  Steve I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Yeah in the real world you have to sometimes chose between the lesser of two evils.

  Hi Uni I'm not sure what you mean. Why?

  All I know is here is what Islam is, as told by a current Muslim. A friend posted this on Facebook today. This is an eye-opener of epic proportions to all the supporters blindly accepting thousands more of them into our countries.

  Hi Dagney well I can give you some advice about sat internet. Satellite is good for watching TV and not much else because the ping time is so slow. Its super annoying. Yeah you can get great speed once you are on the site but the delay to call the website takes forever in internet time and most of them have limited bandwidth and data so don't expect to stream more than 10Gb per month or you will have to pay twice. I know because my parents had a winter cabin up in Maine out in the sticks and only satellite internet was available and Magic Jack won't work well with it either. There was a small diner on the main road about 2 miles away and I was able to use their wifi because they're friends of the family. I used a wifi boosting antenna and had great speed.

  In the city the options are also kind of limited by the building you live in. My building has only Verizon and if you want Time Warner you have to pay for the install. So far I have no complaints with Fios with all of us using it at the same time and streaming HD movies it is no problem. Nobody every looks at these costs in terms of years like I do so it adds up fast. We are nothing but slaves really. My friend lives in SoHo and he pays nothing for the internet. He simply logs into Starbucks and Walgreens for free for each device and he says it works ok. His company also pays his cell so he pays nothing. Cheap bastard!

  Seeking advise on going to college/university

  by joe134cd in

  here is the current situation of an acquaintance of mine.. age early 40s.

  currently lost her good paying job.. managed to find another reasonably quickly.

  although be it with not good money but with the possibility of been able to take an adult apprenticeship which would increase her pay over time.. she is also looking into going to university in the new year.. here is the question i have bearing in mind the above scenario.

  There are many things to consider. I don't have all the facts but I'd say at her age going to college is going to set her back financially in more than one way and the time to recover that will be pushing her in her 50's.

  I didn't go to college because I got connected through networking and was forced to grow up early when my parents kicked me out. All things considering I'm doing quite well. It's the cost of living in NYC that is holding me back from saving. But my advice to her would be to consider her current position and if there is room to move up then she should stay. Hope this helps eventhough I ain't much to go on.

  Listen guys as much as I want to see the JW.borg go down in flames I'd much rather see these Muslims convert to the JW.borg than remain Muslims. I know its going from one cult to another but atleast JWs don't go around chopping heads off or promote Sharia or promote violence against the gay community. These people need to have some stability in their life. It is the lesser of two evils.

  Oh I cut the cable strings long ago. I used to pay $120+ per month for the triple package from Verizon Fios. Now I have just high speed internet from Verizon for $44.99 which I share with 3 other neighbors next to me on my floor so I pay just $14 for internet and Netflix for $8 and Magic Jack phone for $2.70. My bill has been reduced by $95 per month which is $1200.00 per year. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but after just 5 years that's an extra $6000.00 in my pocket. I don't know about you guys but an extra $6000 in 5 years is not bad. And my cell phone has been reduced from $100 per month unlimited to just $39 with prepaid. Again, saving $60 per month is $720 per year.

  Does anyone still doubt that the WTBTS is nothing more than a real estate company masquerading as a non-profit? It seems the WT uses people all the time and then stabs them in the back. Send this article to everyone you know. I bet few JWs know about this.

  Out with the old - In with the new - what a cycle.

  i was present for the first bethel talk introducing the iron boot back into the field.

  i saw many 20-30 year people get reassigned to special pioneering.

  this year, most of them got the boot again and were encouraged to regular pioneer (back to back boots):) this week i received a called from some bethelites and guess where they are all being reassigned to.

  Well with the potential sale of the Brooklyn buildings at $1 billion bucks they suddenly have the money to pay them. Money makes money. More special pioneers = more income.

  TTWSYF Yor're right. Thank you. I'm amazed at how much control this cult has over its members. We must work on them one by one and help them get out and break free!
