One of my friends just got back from a trip to Canada recently and told me a great story about his uncle who had a tough time getting back into the country because he misplaced his passport.
The powers that be had their doubts about the authenticity of his claims as an American citizen, and was denied entry. Unable to successfully repeat the Star Spangled Banner problems soon arose as to the true nature of his national origin. Sadly, the poor sod did eventually make it in after being brought before the American Consulate some time later.
Hopefully, they found another method to use that was a little more effective, like asking him to sing the opening theme for, “King of the Hill”.
Are you an American? Find out for yourself, if you were ever doubting that fact, and start with, "O say, can you see". The complete version is linked to the title if you get lost.
Hmmm. Wouldn't it have been better to just ask for a social security number, or something like that?
