Agree with Crazy Cat. And be sure to post a full review for us!

Well, haven't heard of any around the 'hood here. Most mobile services that I've seen seem to focus on dogs.

I'm receptive to this. However, the key issue is whether the mission is successful -- heaven forbid any of our guys get taken prisoner.

Quite true, but the U.S. public won't stand for it. And door-to-door searches for the targets equals dead Americans, which neither the public nor Pres. Trump want.

Thoughts? ~~~~~~~~ The Hilton Breach and the Failure of Paper-Thin Security The attempted assassination at the Washington Hilton was the fifth major attempt on the president's life since 2024. A lone actor raced through a hotel checkpoint and got close enough to matter. This is not a staffing problem or a protocol gap. It is a systemic collapse of imagination -- and it will keep happening until someone is willing to examine it from first principles rather than institutional habit. Quality control is invisible in everyday life precisely because it works. When you buy a car, you expect the brakes to function every single time. Industry achieves this through Six Sigma -- a manufacturing benchmark allowing only 3.4 defects per million opportunities. In a factory, that is world-class performance. Apply that math to protecting the U.S. President -- the pivot point for eight billion people -- and Six Sigma becomes a death sentence.

That's hard, mam ma'am. Not recently, mam ma'am... and probably as expensive (or more so) than the vet. Probably even more expensive, and they focus on dogs. Into a doctor's office burst a panicked man. He had a celery in his left ear, a rhubarb in his right ear, and a carrot up his nose. "What's the matter with me, Doc?" he cried. "You're not eating properly," said the doctor.

No way, sad to say LS ma'am. Luck, LS ma'am. Cat T-B. needs her annual very soon, too; 4-wheel manicure is included in the outrageous price.

We must also visit Mama T-B., aysheep senior she man man. And that was/is our thrilling Thursday, report we man.

Good luck to the descendant of his ancestress, si mam ma'am.

I've thought for some time that nothing substantial will be accomplished unless the IRGC is decimated (leaders & troops) and several dozen Shi'ite mullahs are incinerated in their mosques. I think that the idea of Operation Economic Fury is valid, but it will take too long and won't last after Iran is rebuilt and the original offenders regain their moxie. I wish that the Israelis would send pinpoint missiles where they need to go to hose the IRGC.

This: --- can never be mistaken for a middle initial or a no or N/A response.

Nice job. Pulling for your success.

Great to hear -- congratulations! Yes. It's never too early to think about removing conditions on the green card. Take every piece of evidence physically coming in that indicates your shared life together, and throw it into a box. Do the same thing digitally in a computer folder. By ROC time, you'll have a smorgasbord of evidence to support the filing. In addition (actually, before anything), shop for a lawyer who can draft wills, medical & financial powers of attorney, and similar estate documents. These make superlative evidence for ROC, and they're even more crucial to have in "life." Remember that if you move from one U.S. state to another, your wills may need to be redone. Texas is one state that has reliable, state-valid templates of estate documents on its official website. If your state also does, you're imaginably safe in printing and completing those. From personal observation, I do not recommend any do-it-yourself Internet sites. I personally felt far more comfortable in hiring a lawyer.

From experience, I recommend getting two official (stamped or signed) copies of the vaccination record from his doctor -- one to send in, and one to keep.

Hang in there, folks... good things WILL happen.
