Crossing the line



The border guard said, "How long have you been in Mexico?"
I said, "What month is it?"
"August."
"Since January. Or so."
"Seven months?"
"I guess."
"What were you doing down there?"
I thought for a long time and said, "Baby, I was all over the map down there. Partying, crying , laughing, playing guitar, losing my mind and finding it again."
She thought and said, "Go on through. Welcome to America."

I don't understand why they didn't search that van down to the bolts on the engine mount...

Is that Mary Chapin Carpenter?

are you insinuating that mark looks like a drug dealer of some sort? I don't think so. But he does look like he might be carrying some young 11 year old mexican girls back into the states to be sold to the highest paying white man.

They did search the van coming back from Canada..... Oggy what treasure did they find from Mexico when you crossed the Northern Border back into the USA?
