  1. Sad: Man Who Missed Black Friday Forced To Buy TV For Same Price But Without Giant 'BLACK FRIDAY SALE' Tag RENO, NV — After missing out on Black Friday shopping, local man Chris Rogers was forced to purchase a new television for the exact same price but without a "BLACK FRIDAY SALE" tag. A dejected Rogers somberly carried his new 65-inch Samsung television to the checkout counter, yearning for the thrill of peeling off the sale tag. "I missed out," sighed Rogers. "This television costs $799, but it doesn't have the sticker on it that says 'Regularly $1299, Save: $500' with the $1299 crossed out. It just says [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/man-who-missed-black-friday-forced-to-buy-tv-for-same-price-but-without-giant-black-friday-sale-tag

We have itineraried 1 MS and Many (2+1) ESs for Saturday, questionably motivated we man. And that was/is our thrilling Friday, report we man.
  3. U.S., with periods.
  4. Toe-curling autopen details. Such blatant fraud! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All the President's Signatures: Biden's Autopen Gamble [...] The allegation isn't that a president used an autopen — every modern administration has, and in 2011 Barack Obama directed one for a Patriot Act extension from Deauville, France. The problem is one of scale: that during Biden's four years, the autopen became a convenience — a way to work around an AWOL commander in chief. The timestamps tell a story the White House tried its best to conceal. On January 27, 2021, Executive Order 13988 — the sweeping gender-identity directive — carried a 2:14 a.m. stamp in its public PDF. Biden was in Delaware. The upload traced to EOB Room 276, the office of Ron Klain, chief of staff. Klain would eventually log 1,214 autopen accesses during his tenure from 2021 to 2023. The line staff quoted back at each other:"“If Joe can't sign, we sign for him."

  5. Yee-HAAAAA*! *that's Texan for "congratulations!" When you apply for your U.S. passport, request the book that has extra pages. The cost is the same, and it could pay off for you. --- Thread is moved from the US Citizenship main forum to the Case Progress subforum.

  7. At least until your interview, physically carry everything possible to justify this, and head off potential problems at the pass by sending overeager authorities to more fruitful targets. See this thread for ideas: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/562879-cbp-at-tsa-airport-checkpoints-why-theyre-there-how-best-to-handle/#entry7784682 Who knows if it's unnecessary overkill, but it will certainly make the both of you feel better.
  8. We respect your clear thinking amidst your frustration and discouragement. Like appleblossom says, look for and do what CAN be done. You can even make a game of it. Right now, I suggest executing medical & durable (financial) powers of attorney -- 2-way, total of 4 PoAs. If she's too new to our culture, you can make her a contingent designee to someone who's familiar with our systems. You can build togetherness by gently educating her as to our systems, consistently over time. Find an inexpensive attorney, or see your state's Secretary of State website for template PoA forms (if any). Do add her to your employer's policy. And some wise general advice: You cannot possibly have "too much" life insurance, ever.
  9. Albeit through molasses, it WILL happen. Keep the faith.
  10. The visa interview would probably be in Bogota. Unless someone here says otherwise, I'd use the Colombian passport.
  11. Your mother is proud. Nothing wrong with that. The a$$et$ should be more important than the precise employment status. Explain it in a cover letter, then at document-collection, then at the interview, just as you have to us. Everyone should be understanding.
  12. Saw today (Fri. 12/5) that Dollar General beat analysts' estimates, up 14% in sales. Correlation isn't automatically causation, but they're the one outfit that still publishes printed ad flyers in the newspapers. I'm not cluttering my phone with apps (= spam ads) or going to go out of my way to search online for deals or sales. Bring it to ME.

  14. LPoP and unread, no see we or anybody man.
  15. Friday MS/ES report, see man: We attended all, dependable we man. The MS and the Many'rd ES yielded the take, see man: -- partial jug Zep calcium/lime/rust fluid = free, glorious man -- onejar unexpired, NIP Smucker's sugar-free strawberry preserves = $1, steal man Total = $1
  16. We send him out the door and watch briefly to see that he's moving in the right direction, si and man. We said Walmart Optical, see man. If you missed that crucial detail, you need to visit there, too, si and no see man. Probably months (to be precise, Many), and we probably need to replace all of our rubias too, si man. Just wait till the next hurricane or himmicane, si man. That would be a better view, see man. First time we've entertained an idea from an inferior primate, great moment in history man.
  17. Scintillating Thursday repartee, yawn man. ------- Thrilling Thursday report, see man: Breakfasted/skoolbused Mini-B., timely wee man man. Skoolbus System director promises punctuality of skoolbuses hereafter, promise he man. Brushed miu, brush demanding miu man.

  18. Thread is moved from the K-1 Process forum to the "Moving to the US" forum.
  19. An ejected pilot isn't a drug-runner trying to kill adults, teenagers, and children.
  20. You only drive there? He thinks that Doler Stores are where they dole out stuff for the indigent.
  21. As stated above, people who want their spouse to remain undeported. As stated here now, anyone who doesn't want to curse their deceased spouse's name, or have their own name cursed, for dying intestate. Outfox them at their own game, then. Be resourceful. Do everything you can, and more, to outsmart them and leave them flat-footed. Make that your goal. You'll feel in control, rather than helpless like a victim.
  22. This, I think, is for any one or more of 3 reasons at least: -- the source withholds information or fails to recognize details as important or crucial to release -- the reporter lacks knowledge about the process and doesn't know what crucial questions to ask -- the bosses of the network/publication/website have an agenda Can anyone think of additional reasons?
