Sea Chicken

None of those 31 million can find a way to get into the USA?
Division Bell

Let me ask my India-born niece.
Division Bell
8/13/19 7:30pm
Ok, how did she immigrate here?
carlstud

Division Bell

But, a blessing for slappy.
Preppy
8/13/19 5:40pm
Yup, he's not lucky all at.
Bert609
8/13/19 5:41pm
very synonymous I guess. What would you attribute to a blessing?
Preppy
8/13/19 5:52pm
Heheh. I was just being a dork. Slappy said "fortunate!" I said, "nope hard work!" You said "blessing!"
Bert609

Yes! They both worked extremely hard to get citizenship.
