I guess the whole pabopaloza is not ending well for some people. Funny how people can spend a truckload of money on gambling, but cannot take the pee out of a country in a humorous way. Confused I guess the secret is having the ability to stay under the radar. So the poor pabos it's like~ we're not going to deport you, but you're not welcome to stay. Don't let the door hit your rear on the way out. I guess some people just can't take a joke.

while I do feel a bit sorry for them, it just goes to show the wisdom of the idea that one should never walk into the lion's den to tell him his breath stinks.

I wish I had gone to the show. I'd heard about it for had forgotten, as I don't often go to places where it would have been advertised. After all this mess was there any video made so that others can see for themselves how overblown this became?

I heard there was, and it will be on Youtube after it's all over with. Just read that in a post somewhere.

Harpeau, what is your news? You hear something we didn't?

Well, from what I've heard, it seems that many of the performers' VISA's need to be renewed and Immigration simply isn't renewing them. I guess one or two were lucky enough to have an F VISA and do not to have it renewed for a while. Thus a decision might come down that may let them continue on down the road. It's highly uncertain at this point. That's what I've heard. If this inaccurate info, do let me know, OK?

I really feel for the troup and wish them godspeed. Around here, the nail that sticks up always gets hammered down.

Not renewing F-visas... never heard of that one, other than in fake marriages. Not impossible, though.

F2 has to be renewed, F5 doesnt.

What would an F visa holder be charged with? Its within our rigghts to do any employment we want and doing public performances wouldnt be a visa violation as it would for an E2.

Seems simple enough. If ya wanna do satire on the RoK, ya gotta git yerself a K-spouse... and maybe a K-house. And some half-K-kids wouldn't hurt either.

F-5 -- the Satire visa.

There's always a workaround.
