Unbooked

[freetrav]

I'm not going to Houston.

Today, when I got home, I found messages indicating that the three cricket matches had been "postponed" (read: cancelled). So, I verified this, and proceded to cancel all of my arrangements, and arranged to get refunds where appropriate.

The reason that the event was cancelled? Because the US government is dragging their feet on issuing visas to the Pakistani players that were to participate.

It's easier for ILLEGALS to get into this country than it is LEGALS. Am I the only one that sees something wrong with that?

What a bunch of BS. I bet you odds its more they are Pakistani and thus cricket playing terrorists than anything else. I do tend to be a bit biased tho.

Well, you remember what Krikkit did LAST time around, right? ;)

Watch out for the Golden Bail!

Yeah, I already expressed some frustration in comments on the post dmmaus' journal. It really sucks.

That really does suck. I know how much you were looking forward to going. Nope it is very wrong that people who want to get in legally have trouble but illegals just walk right in

No, you aren't.

*HUGS*

I'm sorry you won't get to go. :(
