Re: Humor Emergency

Nancy,
Never express a sense of humour when crossing the Canada /US border. I Grew 
up in Niagara Falls Canada and we used to shop and go drinking across the 
border, We do this now only when necessary. Always be cool confident have 
all your bills and documentation ready. Never wear sunglasses. This past 
year the US refused the entry of a dangerous landed immigrant(resident) to 
Canada of 23 years. She even had a valid New Zealand Passport. My wife could 
not under any circumstances be mistaken for anything other than a born again 
Christian WASP. I on ther hand have never had a problem crossing the border 
even now. I once crossed the border in my younger years on the top of a 
Volkswagon Beetle. Yes one of the original Beetles. Obviously alcohol was 
involved. You could not do that now. Party on Dudes!
