Man -- no business in this thread since Wednesday... this must mean that it's time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 50 Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-pound potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day, you'll find that you can hold this position for just a little bit longer. After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-pound potato bags. Then try 50-pound potato bags, and eventually aspire to lift a 100-pound potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for longer than a full minute. After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.

Little do you know, inferior primate...

You should get more excited about regaining your Rhododendron status.

I'd be tempted to deport him now to Eswatini, to keep company with that Khalid Abdul Muhammad-Garcia, or whatever his name is.

Look at the form's instructions. Read carefully, interpret literally, and answer/respond completely and honestly. Others here will probably suggest specifics.

You might see if it takes "ON" (short for Ontario) for the "state."

That's a highly plausible possibility that I hadn't heard before. Sensible and interesting.

One imagines so. I've never owned a foreign car. Nor would I buy an electric car.

If stored properly, chocolate can last a year.

It certainly should! Thanks for relating your experience, and especially returning with your update. More members should do the same.

The government could probably also find several pathways toward criminal charges. Those clowns deserve everything that they'll get.

I drove my expensive car into a tree and found out how the Mercedes bends.

It doesn't matter how you send it. Have you read the Guides and the many posts about these very topics?

Some recently received petitions might be pulled off the tops of stacks so that new USCIS personnel can be trained.

A man sat down to write his butcher for his order of Christmas geese. "Dear Butcher: Please send me my Christmas gooses," he wrote. He scratched that out and wrote, "Please send me my Christmas geeses." He then started all over and wrote the following: "Dear Butcher: Please send me my Christmas goose. "P.S. And while you're at it, add another one."

Apple Drops App Used to Track ICE The Apple Store has dropped an app that tracked immigrations and customs officials, Fox News reported. "We reached out to Apple today demanding they remove the ICEBlock app from their App Store — and Apple did so," Bondi said. "ICEBlock is designed to put ICE agents at risk just for doing their jobs, and violence against law enforcement is an intolerable red line that cannot be crossed.

More and more and more people will die unless the UK wokesters take off their blinders and admit what (and who) the problem is. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Meet the Syrian Migrant Named Jihad Who Killed Manchester Jews No one grounded in reality will be shocked to discover the background of the terrorist who attacked a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur. Jihad Al-Shamie, whom Greater Manchester Police describe as a "British citizen of Syrian descent," took his name so seriously that he decided to wage jihad ("holy war") on the congregants of Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue. After all, Islamic sacred texts command the killing of Jews. Jihad thought he was on his way to Paradise for running over and stabbing Jews, so he was in for a fiery surprise after law enforcement shot him. The police tentatively identified the killer as Al-Shamie but noted that other individuals were also in custody in connection with the ongoing investigation. The police were also, of course, reluctant to admit that there could be any obvious motivation for a Syrian to attack a synagogue. What a mystery.

We would have phrased it differently, but what he said is acceptable and appropriate.

There actually is not. The LES (locally engaged staff), the natives employed at the consulates, receive the same information that USCIS has seen, plus more. They are stringently screened and vetted, and penalties for violating privacy standards are severe. Please avoid posting inaccurate information.
