Sunday morning, checked my watch. It was 9:43. 'Bout 20 people ahead of me. At my turn, the guy said the same thing: "Stand behind the yellow line, take off your glasses, I'm going to take your picture." Fine, but there wasn't a yellow line. I just did what everyone else did and stood where everyone else did, where the tile ended and the cement floor began . The officer then told to give him my card, which I did. He then asked me the trick question: "Where are you coming from." Duh, at the Mexico US border, I'm probably coming from Mexico. My response was "Spent the night in Juárez ". A lie, I actually spent 2 nights. I had nothing to declare, fought with an abuelita at the Xray machine because she thought my backpack full of dirty clothes and used condoms was hers, went to South Santa Fe St. And 4th, started the car and it was 9:55.
