  1. I am looking to be cryogenically frozen and then re-animated once this process is over. It's pretty expensive but I will save money by not buying gas for my car while I am sleeping.
  2. If you want a 100% guarantee that I will never buy your product, put that ad on my television watching, youtube watching or internet browsing.
  3. I have worked in the grocery business for the last 32 years. Until this last year, we had a standard to meet of having 30 'out-of-stocks' per day for the grocery department, the ENTIRE grocery department. NOW we 150 out of stocks per aisle, it is unprecedented in my 3 decades in grocery. It's not just baby formula, it's about 10% of all of the products that we carry that we are having a hard time getting in these days. We have a store brand cereal on my aisle that had the box shrink from 15.2 ounces to 12.7 ounces and the price stayed at $2.99. If the prices aren't skyrocketing, the package size is shrinking by 10-20% without you noticing. As for baby formula, it has always been one of the highest theft items in the store. It is a high dollar item that thieves steal and the re-sell them at swap meets and on the internet. My guess is a lot of the theft of those items is now occurring in the manufacturing and distribution process and doesn't even make it to the store in the first place. A case of 6 cans of baby formula is easily worth $100-$150. It's difficult for me to believe this is not all by design. My advice to everyone is that if something is on sale, you'll use it and it has a long shelf life, buy extra and stock up.
  4. Here is what I have noticed with my fiance's family, coworkers and friends (not saying this applies to all Filipinos). It seems a lot of them vote for the person who is from their area/province, regardless of the policies of that person. I actually went on the websites of Marcos and Leni so I could educate myself on them and noticed there is little to no information about their positions on the issues.
  5. I went through Narita on my last trip to the Philippines 2 years ago. I checked my luggage in Phoenix and didn't see it again until I picked it up in Manila. Your luggage will be transferred to the right plane by the airlines. As always, take things that are of the most value with you in your carry on. Narita is a very nice, clean airport, easy to navigate.
  6. Lesson #1: Patience, the journey is long and frustrating. Lesson #2: There is a lot of good advice from very knowledgeable people on here. It may not be the advice you want to hear at times, but that doesn't mean it's wrong.
  7. Since she is talking about going to a battered womans shelter, that would implicate you as the one doing the abuse. I would not spend a single minute with her alone again.
  8. Here is the thing, at NO point is this situation going to improve. You will have a hundreds moments where you will look back on and say "I should have ended this relationship right then". Start the legal process of ending this relationship NOW so this won't be just another of the hundreds of moments you wish you did something sooner. She is miserable, you are miserable, it's only going to affect your health if you keep this thing going.
