I am guessing they were looking for people whose shades fall somewhere between you two. Same thing happened to us in South Texas once, but the LE were La Migra. --R On 11/8/13 6:30 PM, WILTON wrote: > Coupla days ago, I was en route to my rental house, when I encountered a NC Highway Patrol license check point just down a hill and around a curve from a chicken processing plant.

As I reached toward him with the card, and as he was reaching for it, I realized that I was handing him my military ID card instead of my license. I suddenly laughed as I was pulling it back to retrieve the right card and said, "Oh, I pulled out the wrong card."
