  1. Ford was tremendous. I bought an Escort and couldn't be happier! America finally has their auto act together. And the vet deals are good. Added to great financing by usaa I'm loving my wheels
  2. The never ending story: Took off for the Chinese consulate at 12. I landed on the highway just in time for it to be closed for Biden's arriving motorcade. Then Obama's motorcade coming from his basketball game did me in. I was 10 minutes too late. Headed back to the consulate Tomo. Gander insists I pay him back for forcing him to ride fir 4 hours. I keep promising morning sausage but he keeps throwing me his ball. My furry child.

  3. Hmmm Have to return to the consulate tomorrow. The new rules are strange: insurance info, work info, letter of invitation... Two young guys ahead of me got by with a fake itinerary and bogus hotel reservation but l will do it by the book... Jeez...

  4. Headed to the Chinese Consulate in the morning. Putting in for a new visa ( old one ran out of gas)... Despite all the recent madness I would love to be there for Chinese New Year! Cross your fingers..

  5. I remember in the middle of A Color Purple holding on to a sob during one of the many emotional moments. It slipped out a few minutes later in quieter part of the movie. The packed house laughed. It wasn't a mocking laugh. It was a collective expression of relief that they were not alone. Tonight the whole theater was united in feelings at A Late Quartet. To say it was passionate would be euphemistic. It is about love of self, love of music and the life that happens while we are making great...

  6. I forgot I had a free ticket to Katie Perry in Mikwaukee today until I saw her on TV. Still wondering what that outfit looked like up close. Didn't leave much to the imagination on the Tube.

  7. My Chinese friend texts and asks how I am and I say I'm pooped. My friends apologizes for bothering me and tells me to have a good poop and please text later.I say I'm not going to the bathroom and my friend tells me to eat more prunes. I'm losing my Chinglish, I fear..

  8. They postponed the service dog flash mob until next week. Josh and I went anyway. The owner came up to us and said I and the dogs could stay but Josh had to leave as he had a history of rudeness. Not so. The boss was looking for a legal out to get rid of us. We left without incident. The Pub on Penn in the Capitol Hill area ain't vet or mutt friendly. Had killer pizza and watched neighborhood folks in costume come and go. Gander drew in a really nice lady in her 30's who developed seizure...

  9. Some days with Gander are tougher than others. He draws people out so quickly the emotions you see manifest are startling. We don't go out ever without encountering someone mourning the loss of a family pet or meeting seniors who long for a companion to comfort them now that their spouse is gone. Today it was an 82 year old widow who was palpably lonely. And a elderly gentleman who once owned over 20 rescue dogs. Gander leaned and listened...

  10. Just sent my VA l100% award etter. I was scheduled for discharge next December. This will wrap it up a year early. $70,000 because of accrued interest. I applied years ago and they kept holding on to the letters and not processing for so long I kept getting requests to see a Doc again. They were rewarded for collections then so they dallied on discharges. I finally gave up. A $20,000 loan became 70,000 with accrued interest. It's finally over in 3-4 weeks.
  11. I like that: class of 2010... I don't know. It did sound like a new initiative. But, ya, check is in the mail.
  12. Just was told by a VARO employee that there is a huge push to clear 2010 claims before the end of the year. Good news for old claims, but...
  13. No. I just got a service dog. It's been amazing. I have a ton of physical issues. My lungs are horribly scarred from the pollution in China so I need frequent CT scans to rule out cancer. Thank you!! When all is better I will stay on the radar. What a relief!!!
  14. Change #999 but a good change! The final sign off authority sent it back to the VARO rater. They awarded P&T. I couldn't be happier. Unless of course I was we'll... Thank you Hadit!
  15. 640 days. DAV says decided but in notification phase for 30 days so far. Ebennies says estimated completion date is feb 2013.
  16. John What does that entail? Who would you be meeting with at that time?
  17. I checked this morning (Sat) and already got a notice that my files could not be accessed. And the letter generator is down too.
  18. I'm now past a month in notification phase and mine is an expedited case.
  19. Broncovet You said in another post you only received partial back pay for something. How does that happen?
