Are none of your clients immigrants of some sort?

I have one WWII warbride.

illegals can't invest. and i don't run into that many legal immigrants in a position where they would need my services.

Quick update. I emailed them and apparently what they meant was that entrants needed to have an SS#. So she is allowed to enter even though the rules say entrants must be US citizens. Now wait, who can't get ss#s? oh yes, that's right -illegals. Yet another situation where the two are lumped together for convenience. Now the question is, should I alert all legal residents that they can enter and dilute her chance of winning but prove a point....? :lol:

do what you want with the contest, but try this first. Go back and reread the rules to the contest. When you see US citizen don't read it as exclusionary or insulting. Realize that it is a positive - you are included with us.

Only in this instance, hon, and only because I spoke out. we are not US citizens (yet). It is exclusionary (is that a word?). Many situations make that very clear. Like voting and jury duty. here it was just an "lumping all together" type oversight and fortunately those in charge were big enough/responsible enough to realise that. But more often than not it's jobsworths enforcing these rules. I feel black.

the rules: (see #5) http://www.recycleannarbor.org/pdfs/...ry_form_08.pdf

(they are changing the wording in future to omit this rule, as a result of my email)

Maybe you should have moved to Australia instead. Apparently it fucking rocks...

Reminds me of my white friends from South Africa who tried to get a scholarship for African Americans and were told they were not qualified when no where does it mention black skin.

It does rock. :) It's getting to be a bit of a problem to find a house to live in though, so don't come if you aren't cashed up. ;)

Earthquakes?

not for a while now, but there have been a couple.

I would love to have a go at it. First I have to get rid of these kids.
