<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 1547906, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> Back in the 1970s80s I used to sell all of my clothes when I went to Europe so i could bring more things home. The only trouble I had was in Russia. I sold two pairs of jeans to this guy. When I was leaving the hotel I was stopped by the "officials" who examined my luggage and asked where the two pair of jeans were missing. I became very red faced and said that I had "messed" my jeans with diarrhea and thrown them out. They wanted to know where I threw them and when. I acted all kinds of stupid. I said the one pair at the train station and the other pair some where in the city (Moscow). They made some calls and called me a liar and demanded to know who I sold them two. I just kept playing stupid and finally they let me go. I never ever tried that trick again in Russia.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /></p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
