The sent date on that one is blank but that also looks like an august VSC filer to me.

CSC still twiddling thumbs, hopefully something CSC will show up tonight but I'm not too hopeful (and don't really expect to see an august approval either but heck, everyone one we do see is a surprise to me).

Hi guys, I'm in the US!!

The border was incredibly easy, in fact he stamped me in quicker than anyone else!! Just asked why I was visiting, how often I visited, when I was last there, what me and my boyfriend did (as I said boyfriend this time), then said "that's it" and asked if it was a long flight, stamped me in.

:D Congrats on approvals!

:angry: AND...can I just say before I get ready for work...that Cali needs to put down their Coronas and drag their a$$ in off the beach and get to work????? I'm sure all our apps are so awesome they barely need to be patted before an approval...

That's all.

Oh..and PS...I want you all to know that I'm officially in mourning today as my idol has passed on...the fabulous Ms Bettie Page died today :((((

DID YOU KNOW THE THE CRIME RATE FOR THE WHOLE WEEKEND IN THE PHILIPPINES WAS ZERO? No buses, taxi, cars, everyone was parked and everyone was welcomes to everyhome to watch the fight with food and drinks to watch our hero Manny. Im not bragging but Manny is the most humble boxer you will find in the game these days. But that was a great distraction for myself and my fiancee, it was a great fight.
