Re: Dancing with the Stars - Finale

Re: Movie.

Have you seen 'Crossing Over' with Harrison Ford? He plays an immigration agent (and pulls it off, still sexy even in the ICE jacket). Ray Liotta is the corrupt adjudication officer. I thought it was...

Re: New Mexico girls show the world how soccer should be played

Have I misunderstood your post, or are you saying that because these girls were Mormon then you 'enjoy' the fact that they were victimized?

Re: Things you should do before you emigrate ?

Also, put your address book on mailing labels. Then just click and print for change of address and Christmas. This has saved me hours of time over the years.

Re: How often do you go back to visit UK relatives?
