Perhaps seeing this "Father" will make up for it ?

I can live with that.

Bless your heart, MsAnn, but without a sincere promise on your part to avoid future occasions of sin, absolution must be denied.

Well judging by the title of the thread, I thought for sure this was one of Adam Smith's posts....imagine my surprise.

I'm guessing you're not Catholic.

On a related note, the official unemployment rate for the latest trimester rose to 8.6% on an anualized basis. The.previous quarter had a rate of 7.4%. Year-on-year through the end of August 2015 saw a net hob loss of 970,000 jobs. Official figures show 8.622 million un-ployer. The average monthly salary before taxes and SSI contribution deductions was R $1881. An increase of only 2% over 2014. And way below the official inflation rate of 9.4%. Last week a tank of cooking gas went up for R$53 to R$63. On a personal note, reflecting on Brasil s economic crisis, Thiago is serioisly afraid that he is going to get fired. No matter how good of an employee he is. New hires for his position are being paid 30 percent less than he is earning. These figures undoubtedly do not include the severe financial dislocations when BoyToy posters male temporary trips to São Paulo, Porto Alegre and Rio de Janeiro.

Nice article. I know from personal experience how many expats were arriving abd applying for visas these past 5 1/2 years. I had my own issues with the Federal Police here while finally getting my permanent residency after over 5 years of trips to Galeão. I heard many different languages being spoken. During the last year and a half things finally sped up with the number of investigations by the PF declining. And not just me. I have a friend here from Fullerton CA who has waited.over four years since getting married for his permanent residency. Totally unscientific observation, but thé fleet of oil service ships and tankers moored in Guanabara Bay has never been larger since I first arrived in 2003. And the construction of the refinery in Itaborai has been halted. Once the works in progress for the Olympics end, it probably will only get worse as the city, state and federal governments try to come to grips with payment on the debt by tightening their belts and.putting even more people out of work.

I have friends that have traveled there and say they love it. But, they also like using online dating apps and twinks. So, I guess according to your report, they were in the right place. Thank you for the great report. It is on my to do list.

I wish Lucky would post here again. I miss his cranky old self.
