I remember on my J1 visa I worked in retail - a Jeans shop.

There’d be a few Middle Eastern customers signing credit card slips. I’d examine their Arabic signature and compare it against the card. I never once saw one that didn’t match.

As an aside I had reason once to examine an Iranian lad’s passport. There on the second page of his passport was his wife’s passport.

Paramedic told me she read it on the ESRI website.

People from Kilrush are the most dysfunctional group I’ve ever dealt with. There’s never a simple transaction with them, every time there’s some form of drama/outrage. And I deal with people from Moyross, Southill, Weston, Shannon, Tipp Town, Roscrea & Rathkeale on a daily basis - none of them top Kilrush.

I know a guard who moved down to there after being stationed in Finglas, and he thinks Kilrush is miles more fucked up

First finglas, then kilrush. Did he kick CJH out at last orders?

In the notes app of an i phone you can take a scan a document. Works way better than trying to take a picture of it and cropping/zooming on it

Field Marshall Rommel committed suicide by swallowing a cyanide capsule. The Nazis came to suspect that he had known of the plot to assassinate Hitler in 1944. Two representatives of the Fuehrer called to his house and gave him a choice. Stand trial and face certain conviction in which case his family would be taken to a concentration camp or save embarrassment for everyone swallow a cyanide capsule and he would be given a hero’s burial and his family would get the full army pension. The cause of death would be given as brain haemorrhage. He chose the latter option.

The Nazis were unspeakably evil.

Not really. It would have been very damaging for morale if they had of executed Rommel as he was a very popular war hero.
