sleepless in Houston&CQ

I'm going to guess that the real keys are longer than the contractor's keys ?? and that when you put the real keys in, it breaks a seal that had been holding additional pins in place? Maybe a plastic tip equivalent to the tip of the real key, which gets pushed out of the way by the real key. No Indiana Jones required! http://www.sternfannetwork.com/forum/images/smilies/Animations/rainbow-switch.gif Good guess Randy but no cigar... Having actually looked at the 2 keys now after I got home I have ascertained that the construction key has 2 slots cut in the sides, perpendicular to the key, and the final keys have none. They both work with a series of 7 tiny holes on each side drilled partly through to varying depths... unlike any keys I have seen in the US... Roggie we had the same in our Condo in Chongqing and once you use the new key the old key "construction key/s" don't work anymore but we only got 4 keys... guess your special being a Mod and all?? same as our new home in the states "the construction key/s" don't open the doors once the new is used. Don't worry be happy!!!!

Yeap with what Randy said It work something like that

Dougie I don't want to be the first one to cast a stone, but...... can someone hand me a BIG Rock? Dougie it's hell having a wife smarter than we are....huh? When are you going to learn they have 5000 years history? Remember these two tiny words "Yes honey"..... that works 99% of the time The other 1% your own your own Merry Christmas Dougie and family

Yea thats her!! I seem to recall her hubby loves cigars dang I ain't so old after all.... just a tiny bit slow

Roggie I have one question for you, Who was this person that said you was SANE?? I'm almost 99.9% sure the only person that is SANE is that lady that comes from Little Rock.... darn I forget her name? Its hell to get old and forget names Do you mean the one from Park Ridge, Illinois??? Don't recall, but if-in I'm not mistaken she is living in up state NY now. I seem to recall something bout "white water" must be a river boat ride......"not sure"

This didn't come up at our interview, sorry can't answer

Yeap, almost everything you need is at your finger tips. Oh and wlecome to CFL, Good luck and best wishes

Other, and No Its good to see that you still have a few of your lights on

AMEN to that.............................. I hope my new daughter soon understands the family not the I concept? She is a very nice, bright, and polite young lady, at least that is the side she has shown me so far! Between my children and my ex's I have had to raise 7 kids, Chinese daughter will be number 8, I think I can handle her. B) 8? as in 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8? wow!! I'm holdin up 4 fingers on each hand that eight correct? I guess livin up north them cold nights makes yawl wanna do more than cuddle to keep warm....huh? wish yawl the best of luck

Thanks but as you know my lovely wife passed the written part of the test with flying colors.... "like I had any doubts" We have bout 30 more days before she go's and take the driving part of the TEST. I hope those folks in CutnShoot are ready for a Chinese woman driving the highways and byways. They don't take kindly to someone running over there mailbox or hitting those big old oak trees. You never know when these folks in CutnShoot, Cornrow may have a tree hugger tied to one of them trees or even one of them Goats/Sheeps grazing near it!

David thats strange cuz, Emma has found some nice cloths at Kohls, Foleys and Old Navy and even at Ross.... It may take her HOURS before she finds that one "top, jeans, pants or dress, etc" but before she leaves that store I promise you she has looked at every thing once, twice, three times. And has asked me 10 times what I thing about something.... yeap she asking me like I know bout colors and most times her questions or a loaded questions. No matter what I say its the wrong answer Its all good cuz she still loves me.... why I ain't sure? Me I can be in out in a matter of a few minutes... ok 30 minutes tops

Is this unfair? Texican Lee No Sir thats not unfair..... not for me any who Thanks to my UT helmet I have protecton..... whats in your wallet? When my lovely wife "Emma" uses this thingin I'm sure I had it comin..... as I recall its called "the power of love" She loves to use it when I step out of line "which ain't very often" oh, its so nice to be innocent and NEVER do anything wrong.....

Damn Roggie you still talking bout this damn dam? guess it beats talking bout them damn Goats..... huh? but really that Goat thingie was so, so so, almost important

When did she leave china? We have had electric or gas water heater at home in China at least for 10 years. Emma

I do care about my husband's healthy. Because he is the person I want to share my life with.I've noticed that many American people don't live healthy. they eat junk foods,don't eat vegetables and fruits,don't do exercises at all. I'm trying hard to make Bobby living healthy,feed him fresh foods on time(but he complains chinese foods doesn't last long,not good for his American tummy) ,walk him everyday(he complains about this also. He says he is too old to walk so fast) I wish him long live. I'm scared of being alone. Bobby's wife Emma

Bills have to have a new born on date 2000 and up No dirty money, no rips, no grease, no writing on the bills, etc. I always go to my bank a few days before im to leave and tell the teller in going to China and need 5k in bills. Most time I came back the next day and walk away with new crisp bills. I always take cash because cash is king in China. And any money left over I always tell my wife to keep..... except a few a few bills for my pocket money, on my return to the states. I need money to get my Truck out of park and ride Even with the new bills there will always be a few that they will kick back, just go to a differnt place/bank or return later to a different Chinese teller or have you better half trade it in for you. Just be carefull and don't walk down any dark alleys with that type of cash in your pocket. Do the same as you would do in the states, In the states you wouldn't be waving that much cash in a 7-11 or you wouldn't be walking down any dark alleys. Use comment since and you would have any problems have a safe and a happy trip Bobby....

Yeap the key word was YET but don't worry Eric I will ask my better half to to teach your better half this dirty little word. We'er always willing to help a fellow Texican out Bobby....

Congrats to Mama Bear

Opps guess we missed this thread Mike, I sent you a PM.... as my wfe is from ChongQing later Bobby/Emma....

O but you can go thru that line with her or should I say it wasn't a problem when we went thru San Fran back in Dec. "Just walk up there like you own the place had them both passports and the big brown sealed envelope and smile real pretty" but really most of these folks or very nice and helpful.... if they make you go back to the other side/line so be it Congrats and welcome to the USA!!! Bobby....
