  1. Still haven't found publications in refereed scientific journals to confirm whether farting outdoors contributes more to global warming than does farting indoors. This is an outrage.
  2. Chilling Sunday addendum, man: While dashing from televised to real basketball, Mini-B. left sliding patio door Many (2+2) inches open, uh-oh man. Sure enough, miu squeezed through, liquid miu man. Several tense minutes were spent (in the dark) trying to lure prodigal miu back inside, egad man. Use of both food bowls achieved the goal, extra wet din-din for miu man. This means that miu now knows that back door is an Exit to Freedom, conditioned miu man. We shall have to be extra-vigilant as to her proximity to it, no more escapes man. This is not a pleasant prospect, man.
  3. No. Technically, CBP can ask anything that the consulates do, and can refuse entry on any such basis. In practice, this almost never happens. Just answer only what's asked, don't volunteer extra information, and don't try to be cute or funny with any answers. As long as he's already in the U.S. or enters with you, it's fine.
  4. Thrilling Sunday report, see man: Miu awoke us in hopes of miu-breakfast, accommodate miu we man. Dished the warsher early, domestic we man. Weather in the Manys with no clouds or breeze, almost tolerable man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. delivered Mini-B. in timely fashion, amazing man. Took Mini-B. & Mama T-B. to IHOP for lunch, only place open man. Place quite busy, Many-minute ([2x2x2 +2]-minute) wait man. We ordered the "ultimate brunch," order we man. We were served the "ultimate BLT," curious man. Too greasy/slimy to eat by hand, forget it man. Bun could NOT be cut even with steak knife, petrified product man. Managed to finish most when waitress finally returned, belated she man. We demonstrated uncuttability of remaining bun, demonstrate we man. Manager almost immediately cut price of it in half, cut she man. This is yet another example of how/why we are a financially savvy Business Typhoon, si man. Opened presents with Mama T-B., generous senior she man. Returned to casa with Mini-B., Two Guys man. No AFV again this week, wall-to-wall basketball man. (Mini-B. crazy about basketball, in hog heaven wee man.) Din-din for Mini-B. = onecan S+Ms, ingest wee man. Din-din for us as yet undetermined, delayed ingestation we man. Going to pick up forgotten stuff from ex-Mrs.-T-B., safari man. Except for petrified bun, a pretty good day, conclude we man.
  5. Rant, grrrr man: What with all the technological advances in recent years, why don't all SpaghettiO's come out of the can naturally without the need to scrape them laboriously with a spoon, huh man?
  6. Thread is moved from the Moving to the US forum to the Social Security Numbers subforum.
  7. Only AOS for those already here -- still like molasses.
  8. Freeze probably over here. Highs in mid-40s today. Again, cloudless sky. Still far too cool, but lovely. Supposed to be in lower 70s by midweek, which is as cool as things should ever get. No busted pipes, so happy.
  9. Well, spring/summer in North Dakota last for only about 4 hours (combined) on (usually) July 28th or so.
  10. Thread is moved from General Immigration Discussion to the "Passports, etc." subforum.
  11. Thread is moved from US Immigration News to "What Visa" forum. --------------------- See the comparison, as compiled by our fine member Crazy Cat: K-1 More expensive than CR-1 Requires Adjustment of Status after marriage (expensive and requires a lot of paperwork) Spouse can not leave the US until she/he receives approved Advance Parole (approx 6-8 months) Spouse can not work until she/he receives EAD (approx 6-8 months) Some people have had problems with driver licenses, Social Security cards, leases, bank account during this period Spouse will not receive Green Card for many months after Adjustment of Status is filed. A K-1 might be a better choice when 18-21 year old children are immigrating also In some situations, marriage can affect certain Home country benefits, making a K-1 a better choice A denied K-1 is sent back to USCIS to expire CR-1 Less expensive than K-1 No Adjustment of Status(I-485, I-131, I-765) required. Spouse can immediately travel outside the US Spouse is authorized to work immediately upon arrival. Spouse receives Social Security Card and Green Card within 2 or 3 weeks after entering the US Opening a bank account, getting a driver's license, etc. are very easily accomplished with GC, SS card, and passport. Spouse has legal permanent Resident status IMMEDIATELY upon entry to US.
  12. If there's to be an interview, it depends on scheduling by the local office.
  13. It is Sunday -- time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================== HOW TO START A SENTENCE A teacher asked her class of 4th-graders to come up with a sentence beginning with "I." A few children came to the front with predictable statements about having a cat or a certain toy. Then, a child stepped up and said "I is..." and was immediately interrupted by the teacher: "I AM!" The student side-eyed the teacher, frowned, and began again, "I is..." The teacher interrupted her more severely, "It's 'I am'! Use the proper word!" The girl turned to look at her this time, eyelids drooped with exasperation. "Fine," she sighed. "I am the ninth letter of the alphabet."
  14. KEEPING IT ALL INSIDE A very attractive young lady was sitting in a fine restaurant one night. She was still feeling bloated from lunch, and she was fearful of farting in front of her date, who hadn't arrived yet. It wasn't long before she actually did let one out, but she managed to cover up the sound with a fake cough. She continued to wait for her date to arrive, but she wanted to make sure everything was perfect. As she bent down in her chair to get her mirror from her purse, she accidentally farted quite loudly, just as the waiter walked up. Sitting up straight now, embarrassed and red-faced, knowing that that everyone in the place heard her, she turned to the waiter and said, "Stop that!" The waiter looked at her drily and said, "Certainly, madam. Which way was it headed?"
  15. We central chimpanzees don't care if we fart, no man. Unsure about you lesser primates, no man.
  16. We'll probably end up back with these. Of course, the enviro-whackos will object, because horses emit greenhouse gases.
  17. Merry Christmas to all here. Season's Greetings to those who celebrate something else. Remember that, regardless of your situation at the moment, you are blessed.
