Obama singing an old Blues song
retrospectively looking back at some the music that was being produced during .
the 60's, 70's and even in the 1950's there really was a lot of good music without the.
entailing commercial visual hype that so apparent in popular music today.. this was of course pre music videos, the music had to stand on its own to create its own public appeal.. whats some of the music that you fondly remember all you baby boomers ?

jws are scattered across the globe.
a few million people left, pretty isolated from each other.. telephone lines and power goes down since the people who supported the infrastructure are dead.
communication across town, state, country, etc is cut off.
watchtower study edition nov 16 pg 19. classic............................ .
I can't quit thinking about all the 50 and 60 year old Bethelites who were sent home without any pension or social security last year, who will have to work till they die, washing windows, or cleaning office buildings, are they thrilled at all? Reminds me of a BB King song, "The Thrill is gone..."
i am not talking about the one that the org came out with in 2010. i am talking about a new one that just came out.
it is completely different or is it just the 135 songs from the 2010 songbook plus the 16 that they have rolled out since then?
my head is spinning!.
Maybe they added "Amazing Grace" disguised as "Amazing Undeserved Kindness"
i have had a conversation this evening with a jw friend i have known since childhood.
he is of the opinion that armageddon will have come and gone within the next 5 years.
are the jws now pinpointing 2020 as the supposed year?
yesterday i made a visit to the museum in my city.
the top floor is the planetarium, which has a connecting room with a huge dome ceiling where they project lessons and lectures and you have a 360 view of the night sky etc.. this particular lecture explained about our galaxy, and how it's only one of billions in the universe.
and then we learned about each planet, some of their moons and the sun.

The music is mesmerizing, kinda like a hyponitic effect. I saw this a few years ago, but I still like to watch it over and over, showing how insignificant our planet is.
i think all of us ex-j-dubs have had the --i'll call it a privilege--to exchange views with others who think differently than we do.
we encounter "christians" from mainstream churches.our dialogue is sort of...like speaking to martians.sooner or later, an ex-dub smacks into a wall.
that wall is a subject which is never spoken about or taught by the gb or watchtower with any candor.
Christian at the dinner table: Son, can you say grace?
JW at the dinner table: Son, can you say undeserved kindness?
Big difference...

If you have cable, this is a good series of information, if you just want to sit back and learn from people who have seriously studied the ancient text and maybe it will surprise you from what you have been told.
it really is great.
