The fellow at customs stopped him cold ~ handed his passport back unstamped and told him that now that he was a US citizen he needed to put a $20 bill in there ~ that $10 just wasn't enough.
I lived in the Philippines for several months and never discovered the real price of a postage stamp. My air freight business went bankrupt because we refused to pay bribes to foreign officials. But then again, I’m from the Bible belt and I don’t check my beliefs and ethics at the door when I leave church.
