  i have been to the city hundreds of times.

  i’ve always loved the vitality of the city and no one could ever say that you could get bored in nyc.

  i regularly went for business during the day and in the evenings go to local bars and restaurants as well as the village.

  are you ready to celebrate??

  it’s such a big holiday that the local electric company will be closed in order to celebrate.

  only emergencies will be dealt with on that day.. what are you doing for the holiday?.

  It’s no longer regional since it’s also a federal holiday.

  I am perplexed as to why they would come up with and be proud of this word. It sounds like something an uneducated person might say. When were you born?? On Juneteenth. Huh??

  It’s like the Wild West with the defunding of police. My last visit was February last year just as something called Covid was being talked about. I have a feeling with so many businesses gone, the place will never be the same.☹️

I even felt relatively safe because of the abundance of police officers on every street.

  Now, it looks like a very uninviting place where mayhem and crime is rampant.

  What’s your take on New York New York??

  What Do You Know of JWs Getting Away With Stuff?

  i realized that teenagers and young witness adults were getting away with murder per my daughter.

  she told me that all these exemplary young people featured at assemblies and conventions were not real good examples.

  after she got married years ago to a “ worldly “ man, she told me about all the kids who were fornicating and getting drunk and high, including elder’s kids.

  Once those disobedient kids grew up and went their own way, the ex elder was welcomed back. What a joke!!

  i had a legal divorce from my ex wife( law of the land).

  i was told not to expect to get remarried because my divorce was not legal to watchtower.. my divorce and situation seem to be a talk of gossip and even a many local needs talks.

  i wanted to take some more schooling to get a better job, there was a local needs talk on higher education and it's dangers.

  Years of realizing it just wasn’t true or real. I’m not a robot. When I discern something isn’t right, you can’t ignore it. I tried to bury it long enough. At the end I really disliked being an elder.
