Very few questions here are dumb. You don't support your parents, and they're effectively your landlords. You don't support your grandfather. Others here will reply with optimal instructions.

Country-specific thread is moved from the CR-1 Case Progress subforum to the Philippines regional forum.

Thrilling Sunday report, see man: We awoke before alarm, sigh man. We had a mental plan for the day, productivity man. We had no plans to leave the casa, ideal Sunday man. Breakfast/lunch was 2 ham-&-cheese sandwiches, ingest we man. We warshered our one LL earlier than usual, prompt we man.c We siesta'd during the warshering process, zzz we man. However, when we hit the dryer Start button, nothing happened, man. We phoned Mini-B. to see if ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s dryer was in use, ex-Mrs.-T-B. attending a class man. Mini-B. thought that it wasn't, irritated wee man because we interrupted his game man. We took our warshered stuff to ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s casa, so much for not leaving casa man. Unfolded stuff was inside dryer, why were we surprised man. About Many (2+1 or 2+2) nearby baskets were already filled, why were we surprised man. We rousted Mini-B. to find or clear a basket, irritatedly cooperative wee man man. We removed dryer contents and inserted ours, bake we man. We then went to supermarket, critical shortage of Powerade Zero grape for we man man. Place was mobbed on a Sunday afternoon, and this is why we never go then man. Of course, the only sold-out Powerade flavor was ours, we man. We got Gatorade Zero grape instead, inferior and overpriced man. We then retrieved an Rx for Uncle T-B., in great need senior he man man. We returned to casa to fridge our Gatorade, fridge we man. We returned to de-bake our LL, DeBakey of LLs we man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. was back, tired-but-upbeat ex-she man man. Mini-miu was out in back yard, prowling like a little orange lion man. We folded our LL on living-room couch, not our preference man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. asked if we wanted din-din, just about already prepared man. She began up-warming it and stinking up the casa, perfect for a newly done LL man. Din-din was spaghetti + meatballs + assorted green/wax beans + baby carrots, typical of ex-she man man. We confirmed that no cilantro was involved, BIG surprise so ingest we man. We then left with our LL after exhorting them to come to our casa before sundown, see post above man. Nothing that we had planned got done, hosed man. Nothing of Mama T-B.'s that we had planned got done, hosed man. We not only now have revised HOA prep but also dryer-hunting, and man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. We are trying in vain to embed Mini-B. in time, vain we man. Monday includes everything above and probably more, hosed day already man. And that was/is our thrilling Sunday, report we man.

There is when she forgets what she's trying to say, sigh man. Si, man. Gracias, man. Well, we weren't going to, but then we told ex-Mrs.-T-B. & Mini-B. to come before sunset, see man. Mini-B. is disappointed and rates the color only Many on a 1-to-Many scale, sigh man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. thinks we're an idiot, si man. She raised several fair points regarding Mini-B., resale value, and other arenas, si man. She said she's not returning to this casa for any reason until color is changed, sigh man. We think that, to keep the peace and also mollify the HOA, we should repaint, $igh man. We have a plan to get the HOA to fund part or all of it, think we man.

That was surgically in-and-out to get Maduro. Successors to M. appear to be cooperating now. No invasions. Strategic talk to make him appear unpredictable to (chiefly) the Chinese. So-called establishment Republicans are peeved because he won't start open-ended wars like they did. There's better understanding when folks take him seriously versus literally. --- Glad that you're contributing in the forum. It's good to have fresh, intelligent opinions.

Same here, to everyone, for keeping posts on a high plane despite the controversy of the issue.

Here is our hilarious Sunday Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== THE BLONDE IN THE LIBRARY A blonde in a library approached the librarian and said, "I'll have a cheeseburger and fries, please!" The librarian responded, "You know that you're in a library, correct?" The blonde said, "Oh, sorry. [in a whisper] I'll have a cheeseburger and fries, please."

Sean Hannity (whom I loathe but have to listen to sometimes) said that 0bummer did this with Bidementia, Bidementia did this with Kommie, and Kommie did this with Tampon Tim.

Pres. Trump is a dealmaker, not a warmonger. I predict that this rhetoric is all calculated to reach a beneficial agreement of some kind.

Thrilling Saturday non-ES report, see man: Our carcass hit the ES trail around half-past Many (2x2x2 +1) a.m., not bad man. After last ES, visited Mama T-B., 2 hours man. She's beginning to show signs of mental decline, big sigh man. However, she barbecued us for not attending properly to her financial/tax affairs, man. She's not wrong about that, probably suffer under deadline pressure later we man. Gassed T-B.-mobile at Costco, mere ounces remaining man. Returned to casa, all painted except for trim man. As we admired it, a car rolled up, "Did you get HOA approval for that color, man?", uh-oh man. We replied that Management Co. had approved it when HOA didn't respond within a month, truth man. Guy said, "I'm on the HOA Board, si man, and we never got a request, no man," si and no man. He further stated that no Board meeting is held in Manycember, state he man. "The Management Co. guy shouldn't have approved this, no man," state he man. "In our Manyvember meeting, we voted that no approvals would be done before January, no man," state he man. We silently wondered how the dickens we should have known about this, no Manyvember minutes man. We applied properly, followed up frequently, and relied on written approval, si man. He wants us to attend Thursday's meeting with copies of the approval, thus plan we man man. This sounds like an internal-process issue, conclude we man. This is not the typical "unapproved paint color" case, no man. Still, we are quite shaken by this, want no lawyers or hardball we man. Comments from all are solicited, please man. Breakfast/lunch/din-din (after Many [2+2+2] p.m.) was MTG, ingest we man. Somehow, a siesta was taken, exhausted we man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. Sunday is our LL, prepping for Two Guys week, and (sadly) prepping for HOA showdown, sigh man. Mama T-B. will be outraged when we report no progress with her stuff, sigh man. We were looking forward to showing ex-Mrs.-T-B. & Mini-B. the revised casa, wind out of our sails now man. And that was/is our thrilling Saturday, report we man.

Saturday ES report, see man: We attended all Many (2+2+2) ESs, dependable we man. These were far more fruitful than were Friday's ESs, who can ever foresee this man. All but the Many'th (2+2th) ES yielded the take, see man: -- round silver dinger-bell for receiving attention = $1, deal man -- large Westclox wal-clock = $2 + half a buck, steal man -- 2 boxes Kleenex = $2, deal man -- 2 boxes Walgreens-brand Kleenex = $2, deal man -- T-shirt = $2, deal man Total = $Many ($2x2x2 +1 ) + half a buck

Number of necks precised, si and see and Bro G man! Find an orthopedist or sports-medicine doc to diagnose it through range-of-motion tests and your concomitant pain levels, si man. Urge doc to inject you with meat-tenderizer, si man, with use of ultrasonographic guidance, crucial man. Blind injections MIGHT help but also might not help, personal experience man. Heat helps with range of motion but cold kills pain, si and sigh man. Oral prednisone is a wonder med but only on a VERY short-term basis, hose adrenal gland otherwise man. Regarding our shoulder (see recent rants), our P.T. lady noted inflamed deltoid muscle, either affecting or being affected by the subdeltoid bursa, conclude she man. She told us to see doc (orthopedist) for X-ray to see how much arthritis we were graced with, getting old sucks man. Doc said X-ray showed almost no arthritis, tested range of motion, and determined that the AC joint was hosing the deltoid, conclude he man. He used ultrasound and shot us with methylprednisolone + lidocaine + something else for (optimally) Many-month relief, so far excellent man. Report back, si man.

How (1) reasonable and (2) achievable do you consider this? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Capture of Maduro and Avoiding Another Iraq Nation-Building Debacle The massive US military operation ordered by President Trump to apprehend former Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro and his wife from their heavily guarded residence was a game-changer for regional and global security.
