That's where my mom and all 5 of her siblings grew up! They still own the original house... but I tend to like Portland better, it's bigger and has more action. Corvallis is small... but they have Woodstocks Pizza!

Good luck John!!!

In my mind I was getting the "playwrite" confused with the "singer".

But thanks anyway.

I really like the rhododendron gardens across the street from Reed College! If you haven't gone, go!

That's great Pete

I know the long distance thing well too. I was away from Mon for a year after meeting her. Hooked up the second time and stayed for a month, but we had to be apart and together for about 4 months at a time for about 2 years after that. Ours wasn't exactly an internet relationship in that we had already met before we hooked up, but the net sure helped us out a lot in that year when we grew closer and ever since then.

As far as visas it can't be anywhere near as difficult as taking a Thai girl to the UK. I've half a mind to stuff her in my backpack when I go back this time for a holiday.

Good luck Brian!

She looks lovely. You don't look so hot, but she looks nice.

I know! I've spent a lot of time in there and intend to spend even more there when I get there!

Congrats and my best to you both mrdespues!

If your disability is depression related at all some states have health care that pays for medication and such but just have to find out. I really doubt the health care here is anywhere as good as Australia. Each state is different as I'm sure you probably know, which doesn't always make it helpful. The system is designed NOT to help people for some reason here. Makes no sense.

You're gonna need an extra visa for those Morris eyebrows you got though!

Well be sure to make a pitstop in NYC while you're at it.

Will you get married here or in Australia?

Good luck Mr Despues! and going by the pics of Oregan above, you lucky man. It looks beautiful.

Is that a threat?

IceTen said:

Can I ask why? Is the legal stuff easier if you get married over here?

IceTen said:

No. I just wanna give him my autograph, since he loves me sooooo much.

It's actually more of a bitch to get married there though, it would seem.

No, my girlfriend doesn't want to leave her family. It's actually more of a bitch to get married there though, it would seem. I hate the U.S. system...but I like a lot about America itself - the people, and of course, my GF and her family. One of us has to make a sacrifice when it comes to family and for the time being, it makes more sense for me to live there. We have plans to come back to Australia at some point, though.

Getting married in MN was easy. We needed to register, had a 5 day waiting period and then we got married. No questions asked or anything, just showed them my passport and filled out a form.
