Eric&Yuhui Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Port Of Entry.... i.e U.S airport/seaport when one clears U.S immigration Link to comment
johnnybill45 Posted December 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Thanks. It looked like an arrival thing - and I was thinking Place of Entry. I guess in the "old days" you always arrive by boat (as in FOB - Fresh off the boat), so Port makes sense. john Link to comment
keelec Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Edgar Allen Poe, a famous American Author. Edgar Allan Poe And all my days are trances, And all my nightly dreams, Are where thy dark eye glances, And where thy footstep gleams — In what ethereal dances, By what eternal streams. Edgar Allan Poe The object, Truth, or the satisfaction of the intellect, and the object, Passion, or the excitement of the heart, are, although attainable, to a certain extent, in poetry, far more readily attainable in prose. ---------------------------- Oh,Perhaps in this context Eric is right (Port of Entry) Link to comment
johnnybill45 Posted December 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Edgar A. Poe was a freak with the commas, wasn't he? Link to comment
keelec Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 I must admit that I haven't read much of his writings, but I see that he does have somewhat convoluted sentences with many dependencies....... And, perhaps, he, scattered, a few, extra commas, in, too!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
