Speaking of parties...when I was in college and lived in an apartment my neighbours across from us had a party that was extremely LOUD, there had been a Pow Wow at the university that day and evening. Well someone decided to bring 2 of the drums (I saw them leaving through the window) and decided to use them as well as sing @ 2 am!! Plus the smell of whatever they were burning!! I didn't bother knocking on their door as I lived alone and had no witnesses if they were stumbling drunk and decided to be arrogant so I called the police. Once the police arrived, which was like 5 minutes later I overheard the police tell them that it was their 2nd warning for parties, if they have to be called again the rental company will evict them....how true that is I dunno. Thank goodness they moved out a month later anyways....

Ummmmm...... okay, I'm feeling kind of embarrassed telling people this, but......

We're going on another family cruise for Christmas! :dance:

My parents, hubby and I, my sister and her husband (from England), my kids, and my brother. Not sure if my daughter's fiance is coming or not..... I just picked up the emails that have been going back and forth for the last 4 days. Apparently no one likes to phone me, either. :lol:

It's the Panama Canal, Aruba, Costa Rica, Curacao, and the Bahamas this time. And it's on the same ship that we were on for the Mediterranean cruise last summer! That ship gets around. LOL. The funny thing is... the ship's captain lives in the same town as I do. Weird. Wonder if I'll get the same cabin? :lol:

Here's the link: Panama Canal Cruise

Yay!! Sounds like a lot of fun :)

If you apply for a CR1, do you not have to go through ROC? Or any other ####### once you get your GC? Hmmm, I should have researched my options more thouroughly!

Yes you still have to remove conditions with the CR1. The CR1 person receives a green card good for 2 years (CR1 = Conditional Resident 1)

morning all.. the neighbors upstairs woke me up at 2am again.. with a party overhead.. WE JUST talked to them and got 1 night of good rest.. and then again with the 1 1/2 hrs of interruptions and loud noises in the middle of the night. :angry:

That is ridiculous! These are the people that replaced the OTHER noisy people? Gosh...hope you get for a new place soon! They are probably laughing their a$$es off after you had talked to them about this. Kind of "what are you going to do about it huh? huh?". Call the police!

:lol:

I would have LOVED to have seen the naked guy!

I grew up during a time when "streaking" was all the rage. OMG, that was the BEST. Especially when it happened during a football game or something. The crowd went wild. :lol:

I know one guy who did it on a dare. He got dropped off at one end of the mall and was told the getaway vehicle would be waiting for him at another set of doors on the other side. So he left his clothes in the car, ran into the mall and out the other side...... and his buddies weren't there! :rofl: Priceless.

My sister's husband (then boyfriend) did it with one of his buddies. They just jogged through the mall with their t-shirts tied around their necks and their running shoes on (no one wore socks in those days) and a big grin on their faces. OMG, we HOWLED. And then one of his buddies called the local radio station, so the announcer came on saying "This is dedicated to Kenn and MadDog, who just streaked through Hopedale Mall." And then they played "Running Bear". :lol:

We had fun when I was growing up. lol

We had fun as well. My last year of HS...I umm...well, I streaked through the school, me and this other guy. We had these silly paper bags on our heads. Everyone said to me after...haha nice streaking! I said, huh? They said...yeah, you can hide your face, but we'd know those boobies anywhere! :blink::blush:

Ummmmm...... okay, I'm feeling kind of embarrassed telling people this, but......

Was probably the smell of sweetgrass. Very very naughty drum beaters! If there elders knew about this! VERY WRONG, I agree Spailenes! :angry:

yea I am wondering if they were drinking and drumming because that is just a big no-no.

If they were just drumming and burning sage or sweet grass that's another story, then they were just inconsiderate.

You don't drink if you drum. :( Well you shouldn't. It makes me sad when I see or hear stuff like that.

Been through the Panama Canal twice with the navy, is a pretty cool experience!~

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
