#@!!*

Somewhere along the lines my fiance's DOB was entered into the system incorrectly too. I emailed the Embassy after checking with the NVC, and the Embassy made the correction.

I dimly remember something about Mighty Mouse sniffing coke and for that matter, why the heck were Scooby and Shaggy always fiending after scooby snacks.

Good heavens. Rick Flair has an extreme tan line.

Man, that little ####### is almost as bad as the true evil that the land of my forefathers let loose upon the world...Hello Kitty.

say...how come ####### doesn't get censored out, but ###### does?

Where did everyone get all this food? Where's mine?? Gupt, you know you're supposed to share-what kind of pizza are we having?

I'm having pepperoni. You can have the box when I'm done.

You made her cry you big meanie!

I have some Ben and Jerry's strawberry ice cream and a partially eaten portion of tirimisu. If am invited to your party, shall I bring them?

I am so sorry that this is happening to you two. I hope that the Embassy gets this straightened out ASAP.

Ah. Then the new pants are a small part of the Master Plan to eliminate plumbers butt. I hear it is genetic.

Holy moly! Does this mean God does exist after all?

Your avatar kicks ### cheeky^Wolf!

I am so glad to see that you are feeling brighter today and that you are taking definate pro-active steps.

Please never, ever, feel that you cannot rant or vent to people here. People care about you and will listen. Sometimes places like this only thing that helps us keep grounded.

Good luck at the docs tomorrow.

right but that's not a culture thing....it is not disrespectful to the locals to not wear booty shorts.....

Thank the powers that be for that. I'm getting up there in years and things are no longer exactly where they were 10 years ago.

Eat haggis and black pudding. At the same time.

I gather that the Vulcan Death Grip is out of the question.

These guys once asked what I require in a man and I told them "that he's breathing". They were appalled.

My condolances to you on the future loss of your chilis. I can hardly wait to move to so we can tranplant our kids and grandkids (the OGCs had some offspring!) into a more free-range venue. They are temporarily confined to some planters that they have outgrown.

I ran across a couple of links that you chiliheads might enjoy.

I want to try these. Am I brave enough. I think I am.

Sorry to hear about your Verizon experience. What a nightmare.

I too, recommend getting in contact with people above the basic customer service level. I'd be more inclined to bulk email some of their heavyheads like the head of PR, head of Media Relations, CEO, CFO, VP, etc. and explain your situation, how were given incorrect information, etc. I've had to do that with Best Buy, Home Depot, various airlines including American Airlines, etc. They problem is always resolved. The basic customer service might give you just some pat answer but hopefully one of the others else will pass the mail along to the correct person who will help you out.

I've had Verizon long distance for several years now and they keep raising their rates on me and made a change in their plan by not subtracting my monthly fee from the total bill if I make more than $X in calls per month. I still keep them around for when my fiance is here, but now use one of the 1010 numbers the rates are a lot better but they do charge a connection fee.

Good luck.

oh WOW!

This is great news for you too! Congrats.

The picture gave me a heart murmur.

Maybe they can put some chili peppers on it. I wonder if they do a turkey burger version.

This is great news!

Congratulations on the approval and your upcoming wedding. Best of luck to you and your honey, and with your PhD!

Her chili peppers are doing remarkably well though.

Tough little plante they are!!! That, and you can use them for cooking!!!

Makes all the diference in the world!!!

I agree! Chilis rock. My dad is growing cherry, thai, japanese (a long skinny red one), and serrano chilis, and I think might have scotch bonnets growing. Yum.

My fiance and I have some plants that we call our kids since the neighborhood cats all ran away. Not quite sure what they are because we dried all the seeds from the various chilis we have consumed, mixed them all in a pot and then planted some of them. Could be fun.

Your wife might be friends with my sister. I gave my sister a little cactus one year. She killed it. She claims that she planted it in the terrarium and that another plant ate it. So I gave her an air fern. That somehow died too. I don't know how. Her chili peppers are doing remarkably well though.

I used to work tech support for a software company, and once was asked "are you a real person or a machine?" and when i replied "a real person" she actually said "damn machines" and hung up

my moral, there are never stupid questions, just stupid people.

Maybe she thought you were part of the Borg Collective and wanted to assimilate her.

I must admit, if I still ate beef and pork, I would be running amok right now, trying to find out where I could find one of those.

For the love of all that is sacred, please put your shirt on.

Wooooo!

Close your eyes and take a look at god's greatest creation and think about how better your life would be with the Nature Boy Ric Flair.

Woooooo!

How can I close my eyes and look at god's greatest creation at the same time? Besides why would I want to close my eyes and NOT see the greatest creation of thai chicken curry? That would be just wrong.
