thank You Snowy

I have a question for the members I just renewed my passport here in the US Manila Embassy just waiting for it to be returned to me , I was told by my imergration office here told me after I get my new passport I have to go to the Philippine Embassy take my new and old passport so they can stamp my new passport with a stamp showing when I last entered the Philippines they told me no appointment just walk in and get my new passport stamped should not take long just have to show the stamp from the old passport when I reentered the Philippines has anyone done this and do you remember the cost I would be very great full for any information

The only dealings I had with PAL was a flight from Manila to Kalibo the time to depart was set back 4 times on the hour so I was 4 hours late to arrive in Kalibo that was the first and last time I flew on Pal I use Cebu Pacific they have been great so far I have had delays but that is normal here in the Philippines

What I do is make my own what I do is make jello out of the cranberry juice subtract 1/2 cup of the lquid to make it a litter thicker

Hi there just my added 2 cents worth of advise i use direct deposit into my checking account for my SS check and my bank does not charge me which is great and now here is something interesting my bank told me to use my ATM card to get my money out there reason was I was the one taking the money out of my account , I was told when you start having your money moved around from one place to another you are asking for trouble just a matter of time before something goes wrong, and you are at there mercy before it is cleared for you to use , I had my whole SS check taken out of my account by a 3 rd bank in the mix to the bank transfer to me in Thailand I was very lucky as my bank caught it and stopped the withdraw , from that time I use my ATM that way I control my money and not some other bank like I said just my 2 cents

Yes i was alone I had a very dear friend that had moved to the Philippines a year before we were in the same boat had trouble with the families we got messed up with in Thailand , and my friend talked me into coming to the Philippines best move I ever made I settled in where he was living and have been here almost five years now so far no problems knock on wood

there is an old saying you get what you pay for Filipino people are not well to do and Jollibees is a great place for the kids to go and for a big family it will cost the family some major money McDonalds is out of the question I will say this Jollibee has a quarter pounder that puts McDonalds to shame not only in the price 165 pesos for the burger, fries,and a drink but the burger it self great burger, this is just my opinion every one has one I do not want to start any holly wars here

THIS IS SO TRUE i WENT THRU THE SAME THING THEY JUST WANT TO BE PAID OFF IT IS ALL ABOUT MONEY YES THEY THREATEN YOU AS THEY WANT YOU TO JUMP AND THEY REALLY DO NOT WANT YOU THERE IN THERE COUNTRY

All kids are the same not just in the Philippines

I use Globes Wifi works great no problems so far I have had it for 3 years just up graded so it is faster I live in Kalibo Aklan my cost is 1000 peso a month

I do not mind helping the family but to support them I will not do it I look at it this way they where doing ok and getting by before I showed up I worked for my money my whole life and now I am going to hand it over it to them no way I went thru this in Thailand was an ATM machine for the family , the wife needs to be told that the brother has got to pay rent and food if he is going to stay in the house he has gone to school know he needs to work her choice what see does now is up to her as there are a lot of great ladies here in the Philippines that would love to be with him that"s how I feel

What is being said is so true about the wives my sweetheart has her drivers licence but can not drive she thinks she can because she has her licence I have taken her out driving when we had a multicab it had an auto trans so no shifting the gears took her to a place where there were no traffic she would not go over 10 km , then I bought an mulitcab stick had her drive it around the block never took it out of 1st gear then after 2 weeks told her she had to change gears the first thing she did was crash into are other multicab had have both fix cost 20 thousand peso each to fix after that no more driving now that I bought a Ranger she wants to drive again I told her that she did not how to drive and that the Ranger is much bigger and harder to drive than the other cars does not want to listen it scares the wholly shit out of me as I know if I let her drive the Ranger it is a wreck going to happen so yes I know how everyone feels about this

Dave I have Sold it but this happened to me when I had it I just bought a Ford Ranger what a great Truck and yes you are so right I all ways give him a tip as I am very thank full for what he does for me

Wow what can I say here in Kalibo Aklan I have had a tire just blow up in my carport early one morning if you looked at the tires you would say what's up the tires looked new it was on my Multicab the tire shop told me I should change all the tires because I did not know how old they were ,after that I started asking questions everyone told me that the bran of tires were not that good, mechanic I found a good one that is honest and really knows how to fix cars he works at the Petron station not to far from my place and that is important to have as there are a lot of them out there that just want your money and for you to keep coming back been there I had one from the dealership were I bought my car, the guy cost me some money that I should have never spent

here is a picture of the best hot dogs in America I used these when I was a Chef, Nathan or Hebrew are the ones I used, in the Philippines the best one I found being a Philippine hot dog is the Giant hot dog by Pure Food Tasty Hot Dogs the cost is around 180 peso for 8 dogs the best way is to boil them all hot dogs are on the salty side give these a try you will not be sorry
