Oh yes, Cath? Although I have never used an migrant agent, let
alone a "Registered Migration Agent" I don't doubt that most can
supply genuinely useful information... for a fee, of course.

But _ALL_ "Registered Migration Agents"? They are humans
engaging in business, after all.

Are you claiming that no Registered Migration Agent ever gives
incompetent or bad advice?

Do you believe that all businessmen are honest, all politicians
honest, all doctors competent, and so on?

Do you also believe in the "Easter Bunny", "The Tooth Fairy" and
"Santa Claus"?

Have you ever heard of the "Tooth Fairy"? No, he or she is not
a gay dentist.:-)

It really isn't that difficult to become a "Registered Migration
Agent" you know, or should know.

And here you are implying that all are competent and honest?

Just where does an intending migrant find these saintly
"Registered Migration Agents" ?

If you do publish a list of those "perfectly saintly"
individuals, are you willing to post a bond for everyone on your
list? Providing, say, up to $100,000 or so for every customer
who can prove that they were misled?

When I was a Protestant Child, I thought that all Roman Catholic
Priests were saintlike paragons of virtue.

Sadly, these days, those of us who follow the news find that not
all of them are.

Do you have any idea how much various Catholic dioceses have
paid out in damages for sexual molestation by their priests?

Care to come up with a total amount?

For a start, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_C...ex_abuse_cases

For a start you can follow this up with:
http://topics.nytimes.com/top/refere... &match=exact

or

http://tinyurl.com/2dovcf

Sure, only a small percentage of R.C. priests offend. But aren't
you glad you didn't post a bond to guarantee their behavior?

Are you trying to convince readers of this group that all
"Registered Migration Agents" are superior to "All Priests"?

Looking forward to your reply, and am sure others are as well.

Perhaps you are the one who should "Grow up"? :-)

Out of curiosity, does this stand for "Cathy"? If so, am sure
that many of us will be happy to tell you where to find the "y"
key on your keyboard.

Actually, I do enjoy responding to your posts. Enlivens a rather
slow group, and our interchange might amuse some members.

Potential immigrants to Australia should have a sense of humour,
wouldn't you agree?

I am NOT talking about *you* FFS.

Yes there are agents who do give advice for free.
IF you had bothered reading this ng in detail rather than
concerntrating on what you can reply to/with, you would have seen
their postings.

Ah, another abbreviation, but I can guess at it.

If my guess is right, I'm damn glad that I didn't use a
"migration agent", registered or not, especially you.

But this would have been unlikely, would it not? When I
migrated to Australia, possibly you would have been in grade
school, or "primary school", if not in "diapers", or "nappies" as
they are called here in Oz. :-)

>Yes there are agents who do give advice for free.

Haven't been on the group long, of course, and even if I had,
I would have been suspicious of any ostensibly "free" offers. :-)

>>But _ALL_ "Registered Migration Agents"? They are humans

>
>So FW!

Are you incapable of using understandable English, or at least
American or N.Z. dialects? If so, I would suggest more study.:-)

Or if you do know languages and dialects, perhaps you should
learn to use touch typing on a keyboard. Again, in case you
missed it the first time around, I would suggest that you invest
in a simple typing program. Such as "Typequick".

See:
http://www.typequick.com/education/overview.html

They even mention that they cater to people from New
Zealand.

Naturally, I cannot guarantee that the instructions won't
involve words longer than five letters, but am confident that
you can get help on these. :-)

Can easily find 39 definitions for this, plus another 90, all on
one website. See
http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-quer...=wtf&Find=Find

....I obviously cannot guarantee that you will understand all of

in Texas. Have you asked your husband?

Perhaps you didn't "say" it directly, but in my estimation you at
least "implied" it.:-)

If you are any sort of an "agent", for any company, don't you
think that you should at least admit it?

Were you to appear at my premises, the first thing I would do is
demand an identification card. If you didn't have one, or if it
didn't have your photo on it, would tell you to piss off before
I called the cops.

Unfortunately, my suburb doesn't ban door-to-door sales, or
require that door-to-door sales people to produce
"rock solid" identification.

If the cannot, or will not, produce this, I consider the
criminals who may be "casing" the place.

Oops, "casing" is more than a five letter word, and slang at
that, so you possibly wouldn't understand it without help.

Not either, just careful. Can you offer any possible reason why
I should reveal any information about myself?

Would it make you any happier if I identified myself as "xxxxx
xxxxxxxx" in "xxxxxxx" and gave my email address, postal address
and professional qualifications?

If so, why? When you were in N.Z. did you meet someone for the
first time and reveal your full name, address, phone number,
email contact, names of kids [if any] their names, ages,
descriptions, and the names, descriptions of any pets, not to
mention and the favourite foods of kids and pets?

Perhaps acceptable in the U.S., not so here.

Many Australians resent such intrusiveness, but I admit I don't
know much about N.Z. culture and mores.

As mentioned in earlier posts, am retired. I once thought of
writing a book, even an autobiography.

However, since I got on the net and encountered people such as
yourself, who cannot even manage to read a reasonable usenet
post, I have more or less abandonded the idea.

Not that people such as yourself would be likely to understand it
anyway, as it would be a real struggle for me to reduce it to
five letter words.

It may be news to you, but some words have more than five
letters. Especially in scientific and medical terminology.:-)

Have you considered a "colonocularectomy"? Ask your family
doctor about it.

It is sometimes called an "analocularectomy". Ask him if he
thinks that you might need one.

Personally, I don't usually make a diagnosis over the net, but
you may need or even want one.

Cheers,
Kangaroo26

I never have professed to be a Migration Agent so where you came up

LMAO. It's ****YOU**** who is incapable of understanding "Mr I've

I think this is your first venture into any sort of ngs'; obviously no

How on earth you could estimate something I never spoke of, suggested
or implied with to begin with, is way beyond comprehension!

I never once mentioned the Catholic Church, child abuse, payments et
al. You did that. And I stayed well clear of it because it has
nothing to do with this ng which you have failed to see.

Your the one with some fantasy about Catholic priests and sex abuse.
If not, why would you even bring it up in an immigration ng to begin
with?
Maybe you are a pedophile in real life???
Does your wife know about your tendencies?
Turned on by what the dicky priests have been up to are you?

>If you are any sort of an "agent", for any company, don't you
>think that you should at least admit it?

For those that have been around this ng for as many years and more
than I have, they will vouch that I am not an agent for any company.
So you can stop any form of implied accusations right here and now.

Well why don't you fluck away and do so?
I am sure it won't be the Times Best Seller of the Year!
Why don't you join up with the local senior citizens club or likewise?
Or go mentor at a school?

As proven in the rec.travel ng, you are a ***newbie*** to USENET.
And even though you profess to have been around 'the net' for about 10
years, it's obvious your range has been limited as there are many
accepted abbreviations. And I know many many more that are used in
my specialised field but not in Usenet. Just think about what
fields use abbs i.e. stock exchange for example.

And what a pathetic excuse to use saying your experience on Usenet is
a reason for 'more or less abandonded the idea'. That's got to be
the best worst excuse I've heard in decades.

Stop blaming others, in this case, me, for your short-falls in life.

>Not that people such as yourself would be likely to understand it

Your reckoning is way off line.

>It may be news to you, but some words have more than five
>letters. Especially in scientific and medical terminology.:-)

Yep I did science at Uni [chemistry, geology amongst other subjects].
And yep, I also did nursing training, have been a paramedic. See I
am much more than just a pretty face ya know.
And oh, they were before my 3rd and 4th career moves!
What did you say your speciality was again?
Cheif B.S. artist perhaps?

>Have you considered a "colonocularectomy"? Ask your family

>It is sometimes called an "analocularectomy". Ask him if he

LMAO. Giving out free medical advice again?
It is noted [by your posting to the rec.travel ng] that I am not the
only person you have told they ought to visit a psychologist or
psychiatrist. Maybe it is *you* who should do so!

>Personally, I don't usually make a diagnosis over the net, but
>you may need or even want one.

So you profess to be some medical expert now?
I doubt it. YOu are just a very lonely old man who thinks they are
doing wonders but in fact, are doing J.S.
Ever heard of verbal diarrhoea? Maybe you should look it up sometime.

BTW as you are so fond of looking up things, have you taken the time
to look up the Usenet pages?

Personally, I seldom use them, simply on the basis that not all
readers will know their meaning. I can type at what I consider
an adequate rate, so why should I use possibly confusing
abbreviations? Even though many readers may understand some of
them. If I were to give someone a cake recipe, I would use
the common name "table sugar" rather than "sucrose" or
"C12H22O11." :-)

>I think this is your first venture into any sort of ngs';

Think what you wish, but I assure you that you are in error. Why
should I lie to you or others? I am a Christian, and the Bible
states that Satan is the father of lies. See John 8:44, KJV.

For non-Christian, or non-religious readers, lying is still
unadvisable as it requires one to use a lot of memory and
expend a lot of effort to remember just what lies one has told to
which people.

This is not to say that it used to be possible to maintain them
for decades. For an example what was the cargo of RMS
Lusitania?

quote:
"Beginning in April 1915, in every newspaper in New York,
directly next to Cunard's advertisement for Lusitania, was a
warning from the German Imperial Government, reading:

"NOTICE! TRAVELLERS intending to embark on the Atlantic
voyage are reminded that a state of war exists between Germany
and her allies and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of
war includes the waters adjacent to the British Isles, that in
accordance with formal notice given by the Imperial German
government, vessels flying the flag of Great Britain, or of any
of her allies, are liable to destruction in those water and that
travelers sailing in the war zone on ships of Great Britain or
her allies do so at their own risk."

Lusitania sailed from Pier 54 in New York on May 1, 1915, with
1,959 passengers on board, including a typical sprinkling of the
famous and wealthy. The cargo was entered on the manifest as
foodstuffs, metal rods, ingots and boxes of cartridges.
Controversy about the true nature of the cargo continues."

Why, when don't generally use them? See earlier comments.
Everyone is different, after all. If you don't recognise this

Or perhaps you would like to contest this point from a medical,
psychological, or scientific point of view. [As a Rottweiler

Quite possibly. I am fairly "picky" about the definition of

Whatever turns you on.:-) However, if you want to check them,
you might ask each of them for a $1000 cash loan until tomorrow
or next week and see how many are willing to provide it.

If enough of them do, you can invest it for 24 hours and collect
a bit of interest before you repay the loans.

I was replying to your post. Users of this newsgroup have the
freedom to choose whether to read our interchanges or not.

Was it a moderated group, with as the "censor" or "moderator" I
would lose all interest in it.

Fantasy? Perhaps you don't try to keep up with world news?
Using your own phrase of " Catholic priests and sex abuse" I just
Googled this phrase.

Results 1 - 10 of about 1,910,000 for Catholic priests and sex
abuse. (0.22 seconds). Changing the "C" to "c",
Results 1 - 10 of about 1,930,000 for catholic priests and sex

And you arrogant enough to accuse me of having no experience

time by not checking for yourself, using your own words as a
search term? [Here kitty, kitty kitty :-)]

>If not, why would you even bring it up in an immigration ng to begin

As said earlier, simply replying to your posts. Others can read
them or not as they chose. Is the concept of "free choice" so
alien to you?

To quote from your post:

"Maybe you are a pedophile in real life???
Does your wife know about your tendencies?
Turned on by what the dicky priests have been up to are you?"

Hmm, you are getting desperate, are you not? :-)

Still, I don't mind confrontation, where necessary, IMHO. If
our communication is to be a "battle of wits" perhaps it is a
pity that you seem to be only "half-armed".

Are you now admitting that you do really know what "dicky
priests" have been up to? I think this says something about you
to discerning readers.

Why don't you use the actual word that you obviously have in
mind? Still, even people such as yourself should try to keep up
with the times. Familiar with the Macquarie dictionary? Perhaps
the following online info may help you.

http://www.abc.net.au/wordmap/rel_stories/swearing.htm

To quote a bit of it:

"But the 1970s loosened the constraints on our language as well
as our hair. And the rise of women's liberation meant that women
claimed the right to swear just as colourfully and publicly as
men.

A lot of the earlier taboos were to do with sex. While no longer
as sexually wild and free as we were in the days of making love
and not war, we are much more matter-of-fact about it. If parents
are still a bit coy about discussing sex with their children,
there are now books for children at any age to explain its
mysteries, whether the question is from a four-year-old who wants
to know where they came from, or from a teenage girl who wants to
know whether to go on the pill or not.

It's hard to believe that this means that we are in a tabooless
society. But it is the conclusion of various judges and
magistrates that words like `****' are so commonly uttered and so
generally accepted that people cannot be punished by this society
for mouthing them. Times have changed, and as far as taboos are
concerned, the body has given its all."

Haven't you advanced since the 1970's? If so, I could easily
believe it. Please confirm for the sake of other readers, if
any.

I could easily "prove" otherwise, to the satisfaction of most

not, no proof is sufficient."

I'm sure that this will amuse some readers, assuming that anyone

Actually, I don't even know that you have a "pretty face" :-)

Let alone how you may have functioned as a "paramedic". Care to
detail your qualifications?

However, I think that I can safely say that I feel glad that I
have not been one of your "victims", uh "subjects", "patients",
etc.:-)

I can even think of a simple test for your knowledge, in this
case, I could ask you questions based on books from my home
library.

You do know what "books" are, don't you? The things that people
of my age group used as "reference sources" before the Internet
became available?

To grab some from the shelf, are you conversant with the contents
of "The Practical Study of Crystals, Minerals and Rocks" by Cox,
Price, and Harte" ? After all, you have studied geology.

Or perhaps "The Reloading Manual for Rifle and Handgun" by Nick
Harvey?

Or "The Ephemeris of the Moon" from 1800 to 2000 inclusive?

Or the "Kabbalah" by Charles Ponce, published by Garnstone Press?

Obviously you don't understand the humour. A old medical school

memory, "it cures your shitty outlook on life."
