never mind i know what needs to be done. thanks.

you may not feel that way after you hear this. i'm just telling her...i'm not letting her sister run my life. i'm not having anything to do w/ her sister & if she wants to continue the journey i'm all for it me & her only. not me her & her sister. call it what you want. thats whats going to happen.

My only question is this: if she agrees to continue on and move to the US, are you going to limit contact between her and her sister?

never. i would never come between her & her sister. but, her sister isn't going to run my life. i've gone above & beyond to try & get along...its not happening. so...

i can't live w/ a third party trying to controll my personal life. i'm 36 year old man. if she wants to stay together we'll stay together if not....not. i can't handle the stress of the immigration process w/ a demanding unwanted coach on the sideline.

never mind i know what needs to be done. thanks.

i'm in a really bad way here. i need some advice on what to do. i'm currently going through the k-1 process w/ a woman i am very much in love with. now here's the problem. her sister, who introduced us is causing us (me) a lot of problems. she wants to try to call the shots on this relationship. every step of the way she's pushing for things to be done her way....do it like this..no i said do it like this..NO! I SAID DO IT LIKE THIS!!! it is causing me to have second thoughts about the k-1.(if its like this now..whats it going to be like once Jenn. is here?) i have talked to her (the sister) & asked her to back off. then i told her to back off. its not working. she keeps coming on stronger each time. those that know me know...i'm not going to get pushed too far before i snap & flip the fukc out!! last night i called to talk to her about a couple things & SOS she starts yelling & demanding things be done to suit her. well, i flipped the fukc out! started yelling & screaming right back. i talked to her husband today to try & get some help..but he's scared of her.." i don't want to get involved, it will just cause us problems" PUZZY!!! the sister is no big deal for me. i can just tell her off & not care what she thinks, says or does. but what about Jenn? i don't feel right about bringing her here & me not having a relationship w/ her sis. we are like water & oil...we're just not going to get along. i have talked to Jenn about this in the past & she says " don't worry about her (the sister), its about us" but, i just don't feel right about bringing her here to a hostile enviroment (relationship between me & her sister). what do i do?

i read this this morning, then wrote on a piece of paper who'd be pi$$y about it & who'd be "true so true" or laugh about it.

i was right!!! i gotta quit camping out on VJ.

The number of days actually decreased from a week ago. Since I haven't see many approvals, so I wonder what caused the drop.

I noticed the days from noa1 to noa2 in VSC is now 108. Can anyone tell me what the rational is there for such change? Thanks.

we all tried to beat the fee increase...so we increased the wait time.

i've been watching ours. it increases & decreases...but when it increases it keeps getting farther & farther. its just an estimate i wouldn't get my hopes up.

I know, but I was being quoted and someone would have been bound to have put two and two together and make 5!

this isn't your first day is it?

OMG! can someone tell me how balut is pronounced? so i don't agree to trying it w/o knowing what i'm agreeing to.

As PH stated earlier - a person might believe that we trying to do something that simply can't be done. In such a situation - you cut your losses. Not too hard to understand.

with whats going on now. sunni/shite power struggle its not too far to reach seeing an all out war in the middle east if we leave. granted we went in before having an exit stategy & we're in a no win sitsuation now. w/o international help cleaning up the mess we are in, IMO: we leave now we all lose.

And none of it is wanting us to lose in Iraq. It's a different strategy for winning and is most assuringly patriotic.

Where do you stand on the "costly quagmire" bit?

quagmire...he's my fav on family guy.

we have big brother software at work. it blocks the link. who's speach was it?

ssshhhh! don't tell'em we know how he feels anyway.

Every months we thought this is the month we get out of AP so we did not plan another visit.

Hoping to get a second appointment date soon and I am definitely planning to be there.

WOW! i was feeling sad about 9 months. stay strong Obama...its all worth it in the end.

we haven't been together since feb.10...9 MONTHS. we were going to wait until the visa was issued....but w/ the backlog increase coz of the fee increase. i'm going back to the Phils end of nov. she doesn't know i'm coming, her b-day is dec.3 & i get to be there! her bro & sis have been huge helps keeping it a secret/suprise, while setting up my ride from the airport, room (small resort in her village), & planning her party (she doesn't know about that either)

Pacquiao wins with unanimous decision

/ Associated Press

Posted: 8 hours ago

Though Marco Antonio Barrera kept his feet, Manny Pacquiao kept his supremacy.

Pacquiao beat Barrera for the second time Saturday night, winning a gritty unanimous decision nearly four years after the Philippines' favorite son became a boxing superstar with an upset victory over Barrera.

Neither fighter generated many fireworks until a strong finish in their 130-pound bout at Mandalay Bay. But not even an illegal 11th-round blow by Barrera could stop the lightning-quick Pacquiao (45-3-2, 34 KOs), who showed his world-class reflexes haven't slowed in his sixth straight victory.

Barrera (63-6) lost a point for a head shot that discombobulated Pacquiao after the referee moved in to separate them in the 11th, but Pacquiao recovered in time to reach the final bell.

"It was a good fight, and it was different from the first fight," Pacquiao said. "He's a good, smart boxer. I'm satisfied with the result. I knew he would have to box me this time around."

Though Barrera again said he'll retire after consecutive losses this year, the result was a moral victory, as evidenced by the Mexican fans who stood and cheered the 33-year-old as he left the ring.

"I definitely lost my head in some of those rounds," Barrera said. "I got too caught up in the action. I probably shouldn't have stayed in those exchanges as long as I did. We boxed well. I feel like I dominated the fight with my left hand, and then I got a head-butt, and that's what threw me off the game plan."

Pacquiao caused the only TKO loss of the Mexican champion's career in their first meeting in late 2003, and Barrera refused to go down this time against one of the sport's knockout artists.

Both fighters raised their arms in celebration at the end, but Barrera's excitement seemed forced. Judge Tom Schreck scored it 115-112 for Pacquiao, while Jerry Roth and Glenn Trowbridge both favored Pacquiao 118-109. The Associated Press also gave it to Pacquiao, 116-111.

Pacquiao predictably dominated the punch stats, landing 256 punches to Barrera's 120. Pacquiao also had more than twice as many power shots, hitting on 54 percent while Barrera had just 34 percent.

With Pacquiao in his prime and Barrera on the downside, Pacquiao was a strong favorite to win the rematch - but their 2003 roles were reversed.

Barrera was the favorite in the fighters' first meeting, but his preparation was beset by distractions ranging from a forest fire near his training camp to the metal plate in his head. Nearly four years later, Barrera prepared furiously for his first fight since losing his WBC 130-pound belt to Juan Manuel Marquez in March.

Pacquiao's focus was trainer Freddie Roach's biggest concern entering the bout, with his fighter seemingly focused on movies, music, politics and charity - everything but boxing - before he finally reported to training camp.

Pacquiao abruptly moved his training camp back home to the Philippines, where he's besieged daily by side projects ranging from movie roles and pop singing to political aspirations.

Pacquiao's fights are national events in the Philippines, with athletic clubs and bars and clubs - and even air force bases - turning into viewing venues for millions of fans. Pacquiao usually gives them something to cheer, and he provided just enough action to stay on top.

Pacquiao did his first real damage late in the second round with a flurry of combinations that forced Barrera to retreat and counterpunch. Barrera got back on the offensive in the middle rounds, staggering Pacquiao several times during their crowd-pleasing exchanges.

Pacquiao opened a cut below Barrera's right eye with a flurry in the 11th, but Barrera staggered Pacquiao with an overhand right after referee Kenny Bayless jumped in to break up the fighters. Bayless deducted a point while Pacquiao stood with his arms on the ropes, but the punch must not have been serious.

Both fighters made $2 million as promoters Oscar De La Hoya and Bob Arum staged an entertaining card in their first joint effort since settling various legal disputes between Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank, including a lengthy wrangle over the right to promote Pacquiao.

musta been hungry illegals

they're just trying to feed their families.

she's hot

It's the soft focus lens that is the magic.

i think instead of rehab..she needs a well deserved bare azz spanking..

i second that. i like the extra lbs. more jiggle when she wiggle!

when i was 17-18 i had one of the worst jobs ever (dirtiest & nastiest anyway). i worked at a truck wash (semi trucks) in the stock yards.....yah keep the visual going. nothing like climbing in the back of a bull hauler w/ a shovel......but wait it gets better. next you get to do a wash out. yep...a super sized car wash wand blowing out what you didn't get w/ the shovel...

Just curious, are there any health risks with working with tobacco, or is it all in the smoking?

dunno about handling tobacco. but a friend of mine's brother has throat cancer from dipping snuff.

Hi & Welcome to VJ!

eta: is Bobby a Steelers or an Eagles fan?

CONGRATS LISA!!

don't worry your driving will get better....keep practicing & make oliver go w/ you.

to start with, not acting like a little b!tch like that old coot.. someone proud of the USA and what it stands for wouldn't tolerate his actions, patriotism is not acting all Rambo because of the incorrect protocol of flag display..

like i said the guy way over reacted. but, you said "I think he's insulting all the true patriots or people that are proud of the USA"

now please define "true patriot". don't call him a b!tch, define it. you said it...what's it mean?
