As far as being able to enter other countries goes, is that a life-long thing, or is there anything you can ever do to convince the country that you've turned around? Generally it's for life. It depends on the nature of the crime and the length of your imprisonment. An 18 year sentence for armed robbery and kidnapping is a big deal. You certainly wouldn't be able to obtain a work visa pretty much ever, especially in Japan with that on your record. It's all right for you to say you've turned over a new leaf but it's pretty understandable why a country won't take that risk just so you can work there as a foreign national. He might be able to visit countries with such restrictions on visas with a visa wavier, however. That would only allow him to visit for up to 90 days, not work.

If you live your life to the fullest, surely it will seem short, because time flies when you're having fun.
Best way to make your life feel long? Have it be as miserable and uneventful as possible. The days will just crawl by!

While it's mostly BS, the existence of such products and their relation to physical and/or mental health should not be a surprise to any but the most sheltered of individuals.

can you post the entire coding of your infobox? I have my own wiki and i'll try to compare it to some of the infoboxes i'm using. I didn't make any of them myself though. Yeah, I do a lot of frankensteining myself. I figure it's like a jigsaw, just trying to fit the pieces together. So any help would be, um, helpful. {| class="roundy" align="right" style="background: #FFFFFF; width: 24em; max-width: 30%; margin-left: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; border: 3px solid #000000;" |- | align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #F5F5F5;" |- | align="center" | <big><big>'''{{{name}}}'''</big></big><br><span lang="ja">'''{{{japanese_name}}}'''</span> ''{{{romaji_name}}}'' |} |- | align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;}" |- align="center" | {{#if: {{{image|}}}|[[File:{{{name|}}}.png|{{{size|x280px}}}]]<br><small>''{{{caption|Art by Fumi Ishikawa}}}''<br>{{{star}}}</small> |} |- | align="center" {{#ifeq: {{{forme|1}}}|1||colspan="4" }}| {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" | '''Gender''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;" | {{{gender}}} |} |} | align="center" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" | '''Race''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;" | {{{race}}} |} |} | align="center" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" | '''Born''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;" | {{{birth_date}}} |} |} |- | align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" | '''Age''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF; " | {{{age}}} |} |} |- | align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" | '''From''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF; " | {{{from}}} |} |} |- {{#if: {{{family}}}| align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" |'''Family''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;" | {{{family}}} |} |} |-}} | align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="collapsible roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- class="expandable" align="center" | '''Voice''' |- align="center" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;" |{{{va}}} {{{footnotes|}}} |} |} |}

You think that's bad? Imagine dreaming that Wade Barrett was really Spider-Man in disguise. Don't ask me how I managed to conjure up that dream. Speaking of other strange Wade Barrett-related dreams, I had one recently where Wade started talking in an American accent, and then grew to building-size for some reason. It may seem nonsensical to you two, but it's all part of the bigger pitchuh.

I need some help and being a crotchety old shut in, this is where I choose to go. I'm trying to use the #if function around a section of my infobox, below so that if the field is not in use, it does not appear in the infobox, saving space.
|- {{#if: {{{family}}}| align="center" colspan="4" | {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;" |- align="center" |'''Family''' {| class="roundy" align="center" width="100%" style="background: #1c3855;" |- align="center" | class="roundy" style="background: #1c3855; border: 1px solid #000000;" | {{{family|}}} |} |} |-}}
But no matter where I insert the code, the result is the same: broken box in which an empty family feed returns an { and a filled family feed returns align="center" colspan="4"
Anyone who can help with get a thousand lap dances or their choice of salad dressing.

Maury doesn't trust whitey but he's in tune with the brothers.
If you look closely, when Maury shakes a white guy's hand, he'll wipe his hand on his pants afterwards.

Spin is lying, most of the time. So, yeah, I've lied. There are exaggerations on my C.V. and jobs at family-owned businesses I may not have done much at.
Hey, if you get a job interview, 90% of that is going to be bullshit spewing both ways from you and the interviewer, anything else is just a drop in the bucket.

Bryan, Young is okay, Big Zeke, Jomo, Santino, Khali, Yoshi, Beth, Masters, Christian, Edge, Finlay, Kaval, Kofi, MVP (sometimes).
I'll admit I probably like more heels overall though.
As for people I don't care for being good faces... Cena, Big Show and Mark Henry (when he's booked right) are all great natural faces.

I loved it at the time, and still enjoy the earlier seasons, but I think it hasn't aged all that well, to be honest. That said, it's still a classic.

I think Cole's explanation smoothed things over even if Lawler's rage boiled over for that brief second. They'll be pals next week.
"I didn't mean it!" is the get out of jail free card.

Let's see somebody do The Human Centipede. Heel mastermind befriends face trio then tricks/forces them into forming a stable against their will. The trio struggle and refuse as best they can to cooperate and get beat down for it. Angry, the heel tries to find new lackeys but those who approach him don't trust him and want to break the stable apart. The trio try to break free but the heel beats down two of them, putting one on the shelf and one getting the taped ribs treatment. The heel and the faces he approached but was rebuffed by take him down but everyone is pretty beat. The taped up lackey is caught up in the fracas and is also shelved, leaving one lost, traumatised face remaining.

but they also result in giving the guys who were counted out or double dq'ed an unearned second chance. Only if you consider overtime an unearned chance for both teams in a football game, or whatever.

I was really looking forward to a Zeke vs. Sheamus match. Not exactly sure what the reasoning was for making it a double countout. WWE isn't willing to pull the trigger on Big Zeke yet. Right now he's considered just under the upper midcarders that made up the rest of the bracket.

I'm trying to figure out why they did it tonight? Did they think it would build up the final match better if Sheamus only fought once and JoMo fought twice and was hurt? Either way Zeke got screwed. He should be king right now. Well maybe not but still. Because Sheamus is a heel and so must have an unfair advantage to allow him to triumph over the face John Morrison. I don't like it (the bye) but it's not rocket science.

As it benefited a heel, I guess you're supposed to hate it... but, yeah, kayfabe wise, it makes no sense. There are so many options that don't end with "give the other guy a bye."
