It’s Official: 11

Yes, it’s official now — we’ve moved on to “11″ at US Customs!  Those number “10’s” were getting a bit ratty and someone even doodled the one I had last week.  I said to the Customs Officer, wow, we’re upto “11″ today.  His response, it’s a new month.  What a great idea they have, hand cards to exiting bus passengers with a stamp of the numeric value of the month.  I wonder how high in the chain of command that had to go? 

Tomorrow is election day.  Soon, the picture of the current President will be replaced with the newly elected President Obama.  I can’t wait to see that happen.  I hope that some of the ideas that current administration has instituted will be seriously reviewed. 

But as for US Customs, they have 28 days to print the number “12.”  I certainly hope that it will be printed on green or red 3×5 cards to get us in the holiday season.
