  spillane, mickey spillane.

  he pulled no punches and his pen was as fast as his gun.

  after all, it took almost three whole weeks for mickey to type his first novel.

  What I learn on this site ... LOVE IT. Thanks again Terry.. I heard that he was a JW. I have never read any of his books, not my taste in reading although I read a lot.

  With the covid thing and the libraries closed I had to go to my own and got a book out that I've had for years " Tarzan of the apes." It had four books in one. I'm on number four. I loved the stories. Surprised myself.

  Terry, I think I would have liked him too. I think I may just read one of his books. Wow, I can't believe I just said that. LOL

  Minimus you nailed it. My friend and I said this four years a go and even more today. Afraid to put a Trump sign up. Michigan.

  As far as personality, I like his too. I once said to my Ex " you know he reminds me of the men that have owned the fine dining and country clubs I've worked in most of my life "

  He said " that's because that's what he is a hotel fine dining restaurant owner " Light bulb moment.

  Yep I get him. Yes the men I worked for sometimes would be a little crude but they treated me GREAT. The one that I loved the most was also like Trump the most.

  Stayed good friends with him until his death a few months back even though I left the job 30 yrs ago. I know that Trump loves this country and has done more in 4 years then Biden did in 40.

  I will not be threatened or blackmail to be in lockstep with the people that are burning down our country. TRUMP is my man !!!

  Tonight's Meeting

  by Studyover in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  during tonight's meeting the brother seemed to read out something along the lines of "you may be helping a poor sister who you think may be struggling, but in turn that sister may be getting financial assistance from the government.

  it is always best to stick to jehovah's arrangement in these matters so that help can get to those who most need it, including the worldwide work".

  i think it may have been an article about social media platforms initially and how they should be avoided and then this was mentioned.

  could you guys believe this über borg 'friend' ?.

  he says that babylon has fallen because all of the coronavirus restrictions (and the resultant less revenue) are gonna destroy them symbolically.

  so he thinks this are the last, of the last, of the last days.

  Yes Lamallcool, Someone posted on here about the June 2020 WT about trying to get people to come back to the cult. Do they even read their own magazines ? Why do they have to lie. Love of neighbor , in this case love of family, NOT. Now my daughter feels really doomed. Thanks to the love of JW's witnesses .

  Guns...Are You For or Against Legally Owning Them?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is a surge going on of people buying guns, especially first time buyers.

  with talk of police defunding and rioting in the neighborhoods, some people want to protect themselves.. do you support owning and using a gun if needed?.

  I like "MY PILLOW " bought it years ago for $109.00. Before BOGO free. What I don't get, he is now talking about his days as a CRACK HEAD.

  What ! I don't think I would do that. Maybe that will turn her off, him being a former crack smoker.

  Make sure you tell her right away. What will she think of that ???

  The Secret of Life

  by Terry in

  my elementary school teacher, miss allen, gathered us in a circle just outside the classroom under overspreading limbs of a pecan tree.

  as she spoke, we all listened intently - the expression on her face seemed to say, "this is very important.".

  "sometimes life doesn't go so well and we feel afraid.

  How Could We Have Been So Heartless?

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am addressing here those who, like me, spent decades in the organisation that we called “the truth”.

  perhaps like me you were brought up in it from an early age.

  looking back now i wonder that i could have been so heartless as to believe that the mass slaughter of billions of people was “good news”.

  In my case I just believed I was going to die with all the rest. I guess I believed we all deserved it or we

  could not live up to Jehovah's standards I wonder why I didn't think Jehovah was mean or cruel ?

  Now I can't wrap my head around a God that could be such a killer of 99% of all people living.

  That would be SO mean and cruel ! Amazing when you come out of being brainwashed your thinking could turn 180 degrees. Yes, being raised with fear and guilt was awful but my mom made it a little better because.she was very loving and my dad was not a JW. ..
