let's not be trying to play matchmaker with your relatives in this thread, vj isn't a dating service. keep replies constructive towards the topic.



Why not Charles....????

There are some good PLUMBERS out of work here..... devil.gif devil.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif


Maybe gotta back up the mod. good.gif

Purely hypothetical.... Maybe that's BS and I saw the post? Maybe the offending post was full of comments that were nothing but rude, downright trash. Maybe it would take a total moron to read Jasman's post and think a reply dissing him and dissing Claudeth would be appropriate... Just maybe the emoticons used did not even seem to suggest said individual had any intent toward joking; maybe it simply suggested moron. Poor Filipina SO! Hopefully she finds VJ and maybe gets a clue. Oh, did I call the offending poster a moron? Maybe that's an understatement. Even a plumber would know better.... jest.gif


This is totally funny..... rofl.gif

Why are you people picking on me for ...... crying.gif

I even darn HIGHLIGHTED the part that my humor was about.....

lLet's not be trying to play matchmaker with your relatives in this thread, vj isn't a dating service.

The humor part was meant that
"if someone want to match me with someone else" go right ahead since I am out of work .....if you understand what it is underling meaning of it....

I have no idea what was removed because I cannot see anymore.....but i can tell you IT WAS NOT my post....
Charles is doing his job as MOD.... he can remove anything as he wishes, including mine if he thinks that may be something inappropriate....

It no wonder why most of us are not POSTING anymore.....you all ready to jump on someone like a pack of wolves....


While other members post IDIOTIC comments, IDIOTIC pictures and MORONIC nonsense....be fair and pick on the other members too... for GOD sake.

What am I saying?.....

LIFE is not FAIR...why this forum should be any different..... rofl.gif rofl.gif



oops8rh.gif My bad. For all eternity - let it be known - it absolutely was not a post by eros_EX_Plumber that was moderated! Well, not in this thread at least! Seriously! Really it wasn't... The intended joke was that even plumbers know better than to post such an offending post. How offending was it? Well, so offending even a plumber would know better! Its like deja vu all over again... rofl.gif rofl.gif

a smaller water heater would probably work wonders with that.


Maybe a bucket and scoop is a viable solution? unsure.gif

I am simply amazed how Jasman's tongue-in-cheek anecdote actually energized this ailing discussion board. Lots of responses were generated, the preponderance of which surprisingly took the story seriously. Albeit Jasman was just joking around. star_smile.gif

Well, Jasman's piece is a good example of what is needed to revitalize and enliven this forum. We need more threads like this, with some humor and a little sarcasm! good.gif

My sweet little Claudeth is a wonderful, giving woman but is also the most irresponsible person I have ever met in my life. I never seen anyone melt a bar of soap before but she does it. She can plug up the shower drain quickly and just loves to take 30 or 45 minute showers twice a day. She leaves the lights on constantly and the refrigator open all the time. She will fill her plate full of food and eat about 1/4 of it and the rest goes in the trash.

I am totally at my wits end. I have been dealing with this for 4 1/2 years but have made no progress in teaching her conservation. I love her very much and would never dream of getting rid of her but have been thinking of sending her to the Philippines for a visit.

Has anyone else had this problem? I have heard comments off and on but nothing consistant with what my little consumer does.

she needs to understand that just because she can do something, that does not mean she should. perhaps you should point out that this wastefullness on her part costs money, which curtails her shopping....

PhilippinesUncertain, the use of letter n with tilde (ñ) on documents.
Thanks - we appreciate the help.
Iris&NormanMalePhilippines2009-08-29 22:17:00
PhilippinesUncertain, the use of letter n with tilde (ñ) on documents.
Have enjoyed the helpful and sometimes humorous threads here in the Philippines forum… Thanks. We are confused and somewhat in disagreement how to proceed and I have been directed to seek advice... Anyone experienced with the tilde mark as used in the Philippines is welcome to assist. Just like Spanish, as an accent over the letter (n) to add the (y) sound. The (ñ). And I am referring to Philippine style English here not Tagalog or Visayan etc and certainly not Spanish... Have tried searching the forums and elsewhere.

Fiancée’s middle name has a letter ñ.... Well sort of... She had always used it that way on TOR and ID cards... Just got authenticated copy of Birth Certificate - no tilde included on her middle name, however, a tilde was included on her mother's maiden last name on the same document.... So - now it is time for a passport application and the options abound on how to proceed, with or without the tilde (n or ñ). The confusion started before filing I-129F; we (ok, I) did not include a tilde as we‘re talking English here… Just a Roman character with an accent mark was my conclusion. Not on old BC copy = don't use at all. Awww the good old days filling out the I-129F, hours researching the use of NA, na, N/A, n/a, None, NONE, none etc….

So, Iris has been informed she should submit an affidavit with her Philippine passport application explaining that the person named with and without the tilde is same person, thus documenting her middle name has the tilde, just like mom’s maiden last…. She wants the tilde! Right now! Seriously. She could possibly be as stubborn as I… I am sure I'd feel the same way. The BC is wrong! She loves me. I love her. So far away… Anyways, I much prefer all documents to match: NBI, CENOMAR, Passport, BC, Visa App (DS -156K) and of course the already submitted I-129F which I labored over for 100's of hours… Opinions? So - will it matter if no tilde was on the I-129F (and supporting documents) then all of a sudden (meaning many long months later) there is a tilde on other documents? Seems modification to BC is not so unusual in the Philippines based on other threads. Change BC or just use affidavit to secure passport? Secure IDs without tilde based upon flawed BC to obtain flawed passport? Seems maybe more prudent to pursue correction of the birth certificate first... Will the Philippines actually print the name with the tilde ñ on the passport if used (first-hand knowledge appreciated)? Ideas? Friends... Nice suggestions? Thanks.

We initially met on Blossoms. I went to Iligan and she came down from CDO on a bus which was really courageous on her part because she gets very car sick riding on buses. It was also my birthday when we first met and I immediately fell in love with her. She went back to CDO that afternoon and a few days later we went to CDO and stayed in the Pryce Plaza hotel there. She met us there and we ended up going to Camiguin together and later to Dumaguete. She was so precious and still is. It took me most of my life to find my soulmate and I found her in the Philippines.

yes that's what my fiance told me too... he didnt even know that he will found his soulmate here in phil hehehhe whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif


Yep - on Blossoms for us too. I finally decided to truly seek a lady like I always wanted to meet, this meant that I would search internationally as I was not meeting women of interest in the USA in person or online.... I joined Blossoms. On third login she sent me an offer to chat after seeing my picture. Wow she was sure lucky! Oh - really it was me that was so very lucky. She's sweet smart beautiful and virtuous. Just like I had always desired.... We chatted regularly and developed a progressive friendship right away. Two months latter we were together in person. Several months latter we were in love. And our love continues to grow. So far away!
