Charlie is a fictional Chinese guy played by a white guy. Full of stereotypes. Earl Derr Biggers actually created the character based in part on an actual Hawaiian policeman. Full of stereotypes for sure. And it didn't stop with Asians. Remember his sidekick Birmingham Brown? Funny as hell, but probably wouldn't pass the PC smell test today. I did use to love watching those old Chan movies along with Basil Rathbone's Sherlock Holmes on Sunday afternoons when I was a kid. Don't forget Shirley Temple. And Mickey Rooney as Andy Hardy. Tarzan too.

May want to get a few of those 5ga. paint buckets from OSH for a long term storage solution. Rice, beans, dried noodles........ Maybe a handgun to protect your food supply from the neighbors in case they were too stupid to stock up.

Never heard of a "Temp" work permit. The EAD can be considered "temp" as it is only good for a year.

Go China Go. Maybe the US press will start reporting about the important things in China. Like Roger. Screw the CNN propaganda machine. How about a story on America's trailer park community.

Yep....... I ask my wife, "you got your green card?" It's hard to adjust, check the mailbox, check the email. I don't have to do that everyday now. What to do now? It's like coming home after the army; be cool and try to adjust. The fight is over until you apply for USC (if wanted ) Time to enjoy.

Let the bastard die. She'll get her $$$$

The GC. No Big Deal after 4 years.

Time for a GC party.

We had issues with our SS card. "They" said it was mailed but we never received it (2 times). I put my wife's name on the mail box and it was delivered.

Did you check your mailbox lately? Have your camera ready when you hand her the envelope.

Ten year GC is proof; a legal doc. Run this by a lawyer befor doing an InfoPass.

My wife is starting to read your posts. I'm in for an education.

Wife just informed me if you are over 65 you don't have to pay to ride the bus.

Do you know if it is possible for a USC to become a member of the CPC? Perhaps it may be of some advantage if you are of retirement age. Discounts, insurance etc.

Did wifey have any cardboard boxes also?

Perhaps a tasteful photo of Ski could be posted somewhere as a tribute.

Well Pete they sure are following the Chairman's lead because they've got diligence and frugality down cold... I have to wait until the trash is full before taking it out so as not to waste the trash bag.

As Grandpa Mao said: "We must see to it that all our cadres and all our people constantly bear in mind that ours is a big socialist country but an economically backward and poor one, and that this is a very great contradiction. To make China rich and strong needs several decades of intense effort, which will include, among other things, the effort to practise strict economy and combat waste, i.e., the policy of building up our country through diligence and frugality." On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People (February 27, 1957), 1st pocket ed., p. 71.

Don't worry. Just US propaganda. Anybody visit LA during the Rodney King riots? Duh.......

Hi Mari..... Nice to see you again. Don't be a stranger......

Today we discussed the word "Dork" and it's meaning. It was interseting.

My time spent at CFL has been a pleasure. Good luck to all.

Done....

Today is a happy day as we received our GC. I would like to thank all at CFL. I would like to thank the mods for putting up with my posts. Best of luck to all. Thank You for so much. pkf
