Yes, it's his ibm sister. Rob's Mom is there also. She goes for three months every winter. Basically she spends the time with her two young grandkids (from the sister). Marlise says it's really cute because the kids have absolutely perfect Australian accents.!!
I also fail to understand the illegal immigration policy in any way shape or form. It make NO sense for Country and is in fact, harmful to your country and your own citizens. Even Canada threw out some illegals this week. But our immigration does the same thing as yours. These people get in and start collecting more than the average worker makes in a month!! It makes me crazy.
Honestly that's rediculous. That means I could move to the United States and work for a couple years or so and then start collecting SS? In effect, I could probably collect from both countries. The Europeans do that live here. Every year, all our German clients that emmigrated here at 20 years old and hardly worked in Germany at all, come in and swear that they are still alive and have it notarized and they keep collecting their German pension. Of course they worked most of their life here so they collect that also.
Gun control doesn't work nic. They have been trying to get Canadians to register their guns for about 4 years now and it is a proven fact that about maybe 1/3 of Canadians have even bothered.
British Columbia right in MY area (Okanagan Valley) makes award winning wines also. In fact, my BIL makes about the best wine there is. French wine - forget it!!!!! I even gave up my French perfume. (Organza by Givenchy).
Spain makes wonderful wine also.
sweet dreams Sharkey.
I guess I should goodnight to myself also.
Just jumping in here at this late hour - I think that what you are referring to (people just off the boat collectin SocSec) is actually SSI - Supplemental Security Income. It isn't based on what you've paid in, and isn't a retirement check - it's welfare. Period. The program is administered by the Social Security Administration, so most people assume that it is the same thing as Soc Sec. I'm not saying I agree with it, I don't. I think it stinks. It just isn't Social Securuty, and doesn't come out of the same pot of money. Not that that makes any difference.
And that's probably the third that live in Montreal, Toronto and Van Couver.
Sure it does....the pot that other people earn.
That's just weird!
I think I'll "hold it." : )
Morning sl!!! Hope you have a good day at work....TOMORROW'S FRIDAY....yippee!!
Good hint on Mr.BlowDryer - thanks...though I might need a blowtorch.
That's crazy, nully....really...it is. I wish I was still in touch with the Muslims I once knew, to know what their reactions were to this....but it's been years. So I honestly don't know; but I can't imagine the ones I knew would be like that, at all....
It may not "work," but our Constitution days we have the Right to bear arms...our elected leaders are bound by sworn oath to uphold ALL the Constitution, not selective parts. That's my problem.
Spanish wine....right now, for me, I wouldn't buy it....they've become like mini france with what they're doing, IMHO....mostly, I'll just keep drinking from the beautiful State of Colorado brewery.....Coors Lite, lol! : )
