Add one to your list for dual nationals. NEVER enter the the States on one passport and leave on the other. That is, if you ever plan to return without a lot of trouble.

And to this day, my husband is forbidden to tell US immgrations that he's married to a USian, otherwise they'll haul him up for trying to duck into the country (yeah right. as if) sans visa.

You mean like when they swipe it at checkin for the leaving flight or what? Because all I know is that I enter my respective country on its respective passport. I wasn't aware that they were tracking exits since we don't have any visas or any nonsense to deal with now. Thanks for the heads up.

That's pretty much how I explained it at the immigration interview.

Just sayin'. Meh, of the first magnitude
I have heard nothing about this.

See, if they had united, conservative media like we have over here, this wouldn't be a problem.

Assuming he thinks, and believing rumors that he does... anything... my answer is ????

The only thing sadder than the Repub party of recent years is, alas, the Dems.

research:
talking points memo
his other site: muckraker at the top of tpm
counterpunch
dailykos
truthout

all for just a START of learning what is currently going on and NOT reported by our "liberal media."

Media? I emphatically think NOT.

My dad, my bro, gazillion others fought wars to liberate folks and our country is behaving this way? Out-fucking-rageous.

The dems are bought, sold or blackmailed by the NSA. What a dilemma.

Edit: read the comments for speculations

I've been drawing like woman stuck on couch with only numb tv programs and a cell phone to entertain her-
I'm almost done with Eat, Monster 1-
Just few more designs and I can begin the inking- Which I am beginning to think, will not take as much time as when I was more active- The drawings haven't-
Went to the doctor for my procrit shot and found out I've lost an questionable amount of weight- How?- I can't really cook, and when my brother dose, I just don't eat much-

It's a bad recording-

Thanks to Symmetry and Pauline for your superuseful advice!

You know, for the cohabitation visa, David and I have to get "witnesses" to testify on our behalf the validity of our relationship. That's going to be....interesting.

"So, how do you know this couple?"

"Well, there was this thing in London...Have you ever heard of the WGB?"

Hmm.

It's better for your health to have it on a tooth... all the more so if you happen to meet Mrs GL.
