About 20 years ago, my wife's cousin was headed on a trip North of the border into Canada. The border guard asked if they had any weapons, and her smart-ass Irish cousin replied "What do you need?" That was a ticket to getting the car pulled over and completely stripped down to the bare metal. Not a mistake he's likely to repeat again. But it makes for a hilarious story. Now.
