I didn't know that until you said something about pressing 3 at some point. I experimented to find out where you pressed 3. If you go 2-1-3, you get a prerecorded message and have to re-call. If you go 2-3, it tells you that it doesn't understand what you're trying to do. If you just go 3, you get the operator. :P

If you enter the Konami Code, they send you a free visa right away.

The Consulate's in line to receive the petition on Monday. Judging from the most recent handful of timelines out of Rio, it'll take 10 days for the interview date to be sent - so it looks like the week of 7-14 Feb (most likely 11 Feb) is the date we'll get our interview date... and we're looking at a 28 March - 3 April interview.

I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED GUYS!
