Take good care of your passport, or else you might not be allowed to travel.
Denver family stranded after passport denied because of crease
A Denver family was supposed to be in Belize this week enjoying a beach getaway with their loved ones.
Instead, they’re in a hotel room in Dallas, TX because an American Airlines official there claimed they had a mutilated passport.
...
Little Kye’s passport has a crease on the back cover, which Gosnell says came from him accidentally sitting on the passport.
His passport was questioned, but not denied. It was Kyle Gosnell’s that was the real problem. It has a small crease on the back cover, and is overall weathered and worn.
While some travelers may consider that a badge of honor, of sorts, the government doesn’t.
Ray Priest, owner of International Passport Visas in Denver, said your passport isn’t actually yours at all; it belongs to the US government.
“To have a passport is privilege, it’s not entitled to you by citizenship,” Priest said. He said the issue may be with a microchip embedded in the back of all new passports. “They have no reason in the world to let you travel if it’s been damaged,” Priest said. “It’s like cutting your photo out or something if that chip doesn’t work.”
I went and quizzed the Polish geologist on paczki pronunciation. He proclaimed donuts as close enough. Steph, please come visit and set him straight, also bring pohn checky.
Has anyone here seen the Broadway show Traces? I missed it when it came through Denver but thought it looked interesting. Come to find out, a high school friend who graduated and joined the circus is one of the director/choreographers.
So in real life, when you pay someone to date an obstacle of sorts in your life, what actually happens? Apart from either you or them falling in love with said obstacle? You know, apart from the
obvious
stuff?
Why was I just talking about dicks at work again??? In way too much detail!! Oy.
Do people do things like that in real life?
I'm having a flashback to a krav maga instructor saying, " when someone head butts you in real life..." and thinking, "people don't head butt me in real life." Of course, that was before I had children.
My cleaning lady just called to tell me there was no water in the house but there was more than there should have been on the floor of the garage, so now I get to go home early.
YAY?
Oh, no! I hope it's something easy to remedy.
I think I've found someone to take my bees and I don't even have to deliver them anywhere. Whew! Also, new glasses. Banner day for me.
I'm glad you found someone for the bees!
