Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for September 26, 2013

So THAT’S what Guido looks like!

How did Guido get through Immigration if he didn’t have his passport? And since when does one store their valuables in checked baggage? Is Guido trying to scam anyone?

Guido looks far more realistic than a comic character. Kind iof like Gregory Peck.

You don’t get through the gate into the US (or out , for that matter), without your passport. Oops!

If you will check on Sept 10, he was layed over in Newark. This means that he had already showed his passport upon entering the US. I live in Germany and my Family is on the west coast. I only need to show it once, when I first enter the country. However, you should ALWAYS keep your passport on you for security purposes.

Surely there is some kind of scam coming. None of this story line has really added up so far.

Sung to the tune of “Figaro”:

Guido looks about as old as Slim. And, yes, there is a scam coming here really soon.

Ah, at last we see his face, and he isn’t creepy after all. Scam in the future or not, I’m looking forward to the rest of the story.

Well Guido, I hope you learned your lesson. Always keep your passport near you at all times! Whenever I go on a trip, I always check and double check to see if my passport is there. I also recommend a money belt or a carry around your neck pouch, in which you can store your passport, currency, credit cards, and any other info.

OK, Jim, who is this really? Faces drawn like that are usually real-life people he knows.

Why would the airline need to provide food and lodging when he can so conveniently sponge on Slim?
