Of course you said nothing about the three migrant workers in your trunk, of course....

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. Immediately upon seeing the flashing lights and the officers in the road, I pulled out my wallet and had my "license" ready as I pulled up to the tall, slim and nice-looking young black man in his immaculate uniform. 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." He also chuckled and said as he waved me on, "Oh, you're alright, go ahead."

By the way, that's the sixth time in about 2 months that I encountered such check points somewhere in the area of that processing plant, but I had never seen that officer before.

If you're wondering why I would pull out my military ID at such a check point, it's 'cause that's what I hafta do when entering the local (or any) Air Force or military base - so, force of habit. 'Have had to show my license only very rarely in 62 years of having one. 'Have shown it more in the last 2 months out near that chicken plant than I have in many years.
