Canadian Border Crossing?

Oh, yeah, I got one of those new-fangled "Enhanced Drivers License" ID card thingy. The one with the RFID chip in it. Got it the middle of May, it's already stopped working.

How long did it take in the microwave to kill that thing?

You have to love those customs folk. I grew up at the foot of the Blue Water Bridge and lived next door to one. The guy was a real life, Class A jerk but would have been the same if he was an auto mechanic or barber. I've had my car literally torn apart (Canadian side - and you have to put it back together yourself), had an agent protect our country by unpacking my new guitar and proceeding to play every song he know (US side), had an agent taste my pHysohex skin soap (Canadian side - in the days of blemishes), and had them confiscate a half drunk bottle of Coke.

Hey, it's a boring job. Gotta do something to pass the time.

I don't know but I've been told that it is not a good idea to have NRA stickers on your vehicle when crossing into one of our neighbors. Seems neither has much use for us gun totin rednecks. We might give their subjects ideas.

No microwave, but about the time it stopped doing the RFID thing I had been working a trauma code in the ED, and probably didn't get out of the room in time before a set of x-rays was taken. It was in it's little silver foil protective pouch.......yeah, the tin foil hat for my license
