The worse that happened to me was in Genoa, Italy. It was one or two months after the European Passport allowed free passage between all European countries. We were 80 getting out of the place, 77 europeans that went through customs directly just by waving their passport.
The remaining 3 (one canadian and two americains) faced SIX custom agents. They still had the same number of agents employed prior to the european passthrough! They were bored and we were easy preys for them... Our luggages were searched in minute details (over 90 minutes to check 6 valises!). In Italy, I so look like I belong there, I get asked directions by Italians constantly. But when border guards (Uzi's and Shepherds) see the initials I stupidly ordered for my bag, then they're suspicions are piqued, 'cause there is no "K" in Italian.

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

I was afraid Peter and I would get pulled aside on our drive back into the USA, but we were able to refrain - barely - from discussions of marijuana, explosives, and the women that were tied up in our trunk. At least while we were in front of the border patrol agent. I hope you let those ladies out the trunk once you crossed.

Ya know, after this weekend, that reads entireley differently, now that I can actually visualize you both wearing the innocent faces of 6 year-olds.

And for those that did not attend, here is the cocktail recipe for a BobKay: one shot Denis Leary plus one shot Dennis Franz plus splash of Liza Minnelli. Stir with the cigarette you keep behind your ear. 
Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.
