I love playing baseball, about the same as hockey!! But I just can't watch ball, its soooooooooooo slow!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I think DC just likes to support a winner!! My wife is out of town for the weekend, so I was thinking of going to the game if I could get tickets, but I rather watch on TV,lol and I have a big exam on Monday, fun fun!

Good luck with your exam. :thumbs: If you miss the hockey game, you can still watch the Expos play. :lol:

When it comes to play offs, of course I cheer for my Flames and Now capitals as well, otherwise i cheer for the Cdn teams!!
