U.S. border guards....are always professional

The closest I ever came to the pokey involved one of them over thirty years ago. I crossed at a remote and lonely station riding a BMW that'd occasionally get a stuck float in the carb that'd drizzle gas. Happened at Customs, so I pushed the bike a few feet to get off the tarmac while I fixed the damned thing. A snotty agent screamed at me to get right on back.

Had a quicker temper in those days. Guess I was lucky to be separated by a few yards; gave me time to reconsider first intent.
