good to know

if youve been living in canada for last 10 years, you should have your citizenship by now..which would make you a canadian/australian. Im pretty sure you don't get bothered too much by customs when going to and from the US. Some people here(fatlever) think it takes 1 hour to clear customs lol. Only time it ever takes that long is on christmas eve, new years, probably thanksgiving, easter, and other holidays.

You are wrong.

Again.

I'm a permanent resident.

Haven't sat my Canadian citizenship exam yet - even though I well and truly have the time accumulated.

I travel on my Australian passport - which by the way bares no relevance on how long it takes to clear security. Unless you have Nexus you line up like everyone else. And nexus has no impact on customs.

You should probably stop now before you make an even bigger fool of yourself.

nope don't really care one way or another if i make a fool out of myself....though if you weren't a mod, id rip you a new one

You could try - but let's be honest, you've discredited yourself on this board so much over the past month with your outlandish and wildly inaccurate posts that nothing you post holds any weight at all.

Maybe you should kick back, smoke your "legalized Canadian pot" and cool your jets.

I think you and bigbob are saying the same thing - most of time spent is in the line. Clearing the customs is a piece of cake for US and Canadian passport holders. and for NBA players (and other VIPs) they go to their own special line since Immigration Officers don't want fans causing a fuss if the players lined up like everyone else. I wouldn't be surprised if an immigration officer boards their charter to process them whilst on board, and then they get on a bus which takes them straight to a hotel.

No, we're not talking about the same thing.

You are absolutely correct - once you make it to the customs officer they ask you some questions, take your pic, take your prints, check you documents, stamp your passport and through you go. But it's MAKING it to the customs officer. Lining up at security, lining up at customs that takes loads and loads of time. There is no "secret" VIP line that bypasses all of that.

They don't swing very fast, do they? Gibbons are they way to go for arboreal transport. You might need to hook up a few together to carry an adult human though.

Yeah they are slow, but at least they have longer wingspans and better hands than Spencer Hawes

Very true, and with those short legs they'll have a low center of gravity so it'll be hard to move them off the block. An Orangutan might be CHarlotte's best big man. Hansbrough would probably fight with it to display alpha male dominance though.

Sometimes orangutans don't have to fight to be the dominant one. All they have to do is just showing their rivals how tough they are and that's the reason why i think Tyler has a chance to be an alpha male, haha.

I broke down some trends in the past 11 games in the "Hornets Slump" thread. Very clear Clifford needs to change up his starters - mainly PJ and Marvin. Time to start the best 5 guys. He can't keep saving Lin, Lamb and Frank for the 2nd unit when the 1st unit isnt working (hasnt worked since Jefferson went out). That 1st unit was designed to work with Jefferson in mind. Clifford made no adjustments to the lineup other than inserting Cody for Al. But Marvin, PJ, and Cody don't function well together. Start Kemba, Lin (or Lamb), Batum, Frank and Cody. Then either Lamb (or Lin) worst as 6th man with Marvin and Hawes.

Wow, you just exactly put my thoughts into words, has been thought about this for a while now. Totally agree with this. We just don't have the luxury and depth to run two separate team now.

Gonna lock this thread now, feel free to carry this discussion over to the new game thread.
