Very timely submission (you beat me to the punch by a few minutes). It is a two way street though - the US government applies the same draconian measures to Canadians entering the USA.

"Do you have a criminal record?"
"No, Is it still required? "

Sent your joke on to some Aussie friends, and they're laughing so hard they still haven't come up for air -- thanks for the good laugh to start the day.

I've set a few records, played a lot of records, but so far have avoided the "criminal" records...
