don't brag if you live in a state that only has hurricanes as they have tornados in them......record was Hurricane Buelah (1967) spawned 141 according to one study

Canadato tell or not to tell ?
i'd say yes, tell her. but provide evidence too. i don't know what canadian immigration requires, if anything like usa immigration, but maybe after she's been left she'll appreciate evidence that shows visa fraud so she's not financially on the hook for this scammer.

I made the error of putting my i.m. info in my profile along with my email addies. one member of this board but a different country/forum contacted me on both msn and yahoo. seemed harmless enough until he started asking personal stuff and requesting pics of me......didnt feel right so I blocked him. I also got a few emails from some random person asking me to help him find a wife and his list of preferences regarding such an acquisition. i mailed back saying i wasnt in the biz of matchmaking and vj isnt a dating site. every now and then he mails me to apologize for not keeping in contact LMAO and checking the progress of my search for him. I just delete em. friggin freaks everywhere I tell ya. i guess at the end of the day its just instant messenger and email and its not like theyre stopping by to visit in person .....thank gawd. oh well such is life.....its good for a laugh i spose.

on yim you can set it to block people not on your list. other im types may or may not have the same feature.
that's the reason why i have mine listed like i do - anyone writing to those listed may get you someone on the other end but it ain't me biggrin.gif

I didn't have a clue what Black Friday meant at all, or why it's called Black Friday. I don't think I have what it takes to venture into the fray, though. (The name, alone, makes me think of death. blink.gif ) I went to the Boxing Day sales at Square One once. Actually, I spent 2 hours trapped in a line of cars trying to get to Square One, then another 2 hours trying to get away from Square One. We never did go inside the mall. Too hard on the nerves.

supposedly black friday means the businesses start operating in the black.

We are living together until I started working, his family told my son and I for 2 years that we could come and live here while we found a home that was in a good school district and everything.

I have talked to my husband, I have talked to my mother back home.

My husbands brother told my son he "had a knife and could stab him" on Sunday. This is when it all really began. There's so much more. I stand by my son more than I stand by my husband. I have to keep my son in our room until my husbands brother leaves the house. Last night my son heard the entire fight. This morning he's telling me it's all his fault. I don't like seeing him blame himself for everything.

I didn't realize that it was going to be like this here.

We're looking at our options, either me coming back down later or him coming up to live in Canada.

We'll be alright.

I told him that, I told him that all my son would have to do is go to school and repeat what was said to him, and I could lose my son. It's not a small issue. My son has recently told me that my husbands brother has hit him, pushed him etc.

There's availability at that apartment for December. Looks like I am moving and I won't have to leave my husband.

Thank you guys so much. You have all really made me not feel so alone. I have been able to vent and get my stuff in order and get my mind back on track.

I wish I could hug each and every one of you. You really are a helpful community.

oh he did eh? does that 23 year old know what hot water he'd be in if anyone in authority heard this?
i do hope you get that apartment dayum soon. all of you need to be away from this toxic situation.

In my opinion thats how outbursts happen, just like the one that happened last night.

I think we honestly need a mediator. As long as his mother is refusing to admit there's an issue with all parties involved, things will never change. She's acting as a mediator but she is bias. It won't work.

QUOTE (Delicia @ Nov 17 2007, 01:34 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Let's pretend you went to Sears and bought a new refrigerator and you spend $1700. The fridge never arrived and you never used it. You waited and waited and waited months and you kept checking on the status of the delivery and was informed that it was still on backorder, but it should arrive any day, but still, it never arrived. Finally, you said screw it, went somewhere else and got a fridge and then called Sears and told them to forget it, just send the refund. Sears responds by saying that refund will come sometime in the next year.

Would you be mad?

how did you pay for this fridge? by any chance a credit card?

Yes, it was paid via credit card...

you should contact the credit card company and see if you can dispute this. they (the merchant) have a required time to refund under - i nailed a store in the usa over that as they did not refund me within 30 days.

CanadaOnline Conversion
QUOTE (Stacey33 @ Oct 17 2007, 11:18 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I don't think I have had any problems with conversions. I know once Mel and a few friends were trying to figure out something in milliliters- one of his friends found the answer poking around the net on his blackberry. I wasn't really paying attention to what they were doing at the time but I later said- "why didn't you just ask me?"

With converting Celsius to Fahrenheit my father taught me a simple trick- take the number in Celsius, times by 2 and add 30.

So if it is 25C then it would be 80F. I don't know how precise this method is, but if it at least gives me a rough idea, then it is good enough for me.

it's good for a ballpark figure. although the method i learned was x2 add 32.

CanadaHas anyone tried 'fogout' for their windows
QUOTE (trailmix @ Sep 22 2007, 02:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Well in case anyone has ever thought of trying it, they came by this morning and did the front window, looks grand so far.

Basically they drill a hole in the window and put in a tiny vent (this was a big window so 4 holes and 4 vents). They say it can take up to 12 weeks for the window to be completely dry.

Anyway the nice thing is they have a 10 year guarantee and if it doesn't work for whatever reason you can either have your money refunded or they will put whatever you paid towards a new window.

Cost for 56" by 68" window - $ 418.70 (including G.S.T.)

sounds weird to me but every time i've found my windows fogging up, it means i need to clean the inside of them. i have seen something in euope that works to prevent fog too, some cloth treated with some chemical. maybe some of our vj germans can tell us more. good.gif

CanadaNOA2 approved! What is next?

About a week after receiving your NOA2, you can call the NVC to get your case number. Wait about another week then e-mail the Vancouver consulate (Vancouverk@state.gov) with your case number in the subject line. Tell them you are ready to receive packet 3 and they will e-mail it to you. Follow all the instructions (you seem to have all the documents ready anyway), then FAX or scan/e-mail them the forms they need. Once you do that, they will e-mail you packet 4. Once you pay the fee online and set up your interview date you can then e-mail Dr. Cheema in Surrey/Delta. Tell them you have your interview date, give them your case number and they will arrange your appointment. You can only e-mail Dr. Cheema. If you don't hear from them within a day e-mail them again.

Dr. Cheema is now the Dr. you will need to see for your medical exam. Once you are finished your exam you will be able to pick up the results the following day after 4pm.

The interview process at the consulate is very easy, the longest part is the waiting. The actual interview process is a breeze.

Any questions? You can message me.
