My vote would be for a hotel. Not expensive, cash (Php) is fine, and it allows your fiancée to leave the baby in the care of Nanay or Tatay and not have to be drug (sic) around early in the morning. What's a few $$ for the comfort and ease of staying in a hotel fairly close to the embassy? It's what I plan to do for my asawa; I figure the pancit bihon and caldereta that she will soon be cooking for me in the US will MORE than make up for the money I spend on a hotel for her!

Congrats on nearing the end of your VJ, hope the remainder is smooth sailing for you guys.

dragged, not drug!

speaking of dancing women...

Reckon they got a keg of moonshine in them! :rofl:

OK heres the story: My sister went to SM to checked my moms plane ticket,she met a woman there who is a green card holder and she is a lawyer at Ateneo. She told my sister that when my mom arrive in the United States my mom needs to apply the SSN and the government will give her 600 dollars. I know it sounds ridicolous but thats what the woman told them and they believe her. In the first place when my mom arrive here the Green Card and SSN will be mail it to you right. So how can that be true?

That could have been true before the Clinton administration changed the welfare laws of the land. Before 1996, Supplementary Security Income ("SSI") of approximately $600 was available to low income people over 65 who had an SSN, even if they just got off a slow boat from the PI.

Now, only US citizens and certain legal permanent residents can avail of these welfare benefits. Your momma will get hers after taking the oath of citizenship and pledge her allegiance to the flag of the U.S. of A.

Bubba, there ain't no poi in them Jolibees!

Stop feedin' this troll. He lets his mouth overload his tail!

I ordered the PPV. That is the only for sure way to see it...sometimes the online streams are too slow. Just hope it is worth the $55

Naw, it ain't worth the PPV because Pacquiao will be out in three!

Hello all my friend here. i wanted to know if i could bring a dried fish /banana catsup in USA/ i got visa and now ready to fly... looking forward if i could bring that staff. i will appreciated all ur answer thank u ..

Don't get your feathers ruffled with the dried fish. I reckon you'd be in high cotton with them fried chicken, watermelon and collard greens!

I think it's because Tahoma's been an army of one answering questions.. :rofl:

Reckon should be funnier if more wimps and male nurses join Tahoma's army. Go hog wild now!

I have a few Filipina nurses working for me. If you have any specific questions I can ask them for you.

When I took my NCLEX I just got practice test books and went over questions and rationale for answers over and over again.

Dang, Bubba, your man card must be withdrawn! Betcha are at the pride celebration in San Francisco right now, ain't you?

Shouldn't Kobe be in jail?

He should be in a slammer in Colorado now and for another 20 years!

Anyhow, I don't follow black sports. And, right now, I'm wishing that Phil wins at Pebble Beach and overtakes the Cheetah (Woods) as the number one golfer in the world.

Well I might consider but that will be years from now, I would need to hit the GOLDEN number with the TEAMSTERS first so I can retire.

Teamsters, eh? Me didn't reckon that casino janitors and dishwashers can join the union!

Charlie, shift to lower gear with your wife and go full throttle with others, a la Tiger. Go hog wild now, Bubba!

Who'd you rather ......... ?

That thought has crossed my mind many times....

And I reckon your old buddies, Roy & Yazi, have abandoned ship!

TCO ain’t just the only one missing from VJ. I’ve noticed that some of the brainy, witty, and open minded posters have let their interest go astray. But, that's how it is; to me, the PI forum has been dead for quite a while now. And, we have the party pooper mods to blame on its demise. RIP.

Pepe, Muñequita Linda, Eros, Mariel Esteban, Rocky, etc., I ain’t heard from you in a #######’s age!

Reckon the mods ain't got nothing better to do!

I know there are some who don't send anything.

I'll bet the plantation that there ain't nobody that don't send no money to the PI. Anybody who says zero dollars is a born liar!

wow, this is actually the first time i've ever seen someone so jazzed up over a nurse's salary. i mean, it's decent, but i wouldn't write home bout it.....

What have you been smokin', boy? You're such a biggity a$$hole and a worry-wart. How about you, boy? You're probably cleaning johns or pickin' cotton with your clodhoppers for a livin'. Don't you carry on or they might lynch you at the smokehouse!
