Re: Wholesale Clubs

alas, no wine at BJ's here, being as I live in New York state.

Re: New fall TV shows

The Blacklist is promising, quite liked the first episode.

Watched The Hostage as well, found it a bit tedious by the 2nd episode, not a good sign!

Re: Esta approved, then they said no. Able to Re-apply?

yup, if you are approved, you can use it multiple times within that 2 years. So if you go on holiday more than once during that time, you don't need to re-apply.
