Herman by Jim Unger for January 28, 2020

Twenty years ago, after I escaped from prison.

It’s only good for ten years.

I recently took a job with a new company. They took my picture for a photo ID. I told them I’d give them $10 is they could make it look as ugly as the one on my drivers license.

Yesterday. I didn’t get a chance to shave this morning.

Sorry. I’ll take off my glasses.

I’m more worried WHATS in the case…

Is that Si Robinson?

From ages 4-7 I lived in Germany. I traveled on my mother’s passport. That was the early 70s. When I gave birth to my daughter in Germany in ’89 they required us to get her a passport within 30 days of her birth. The picture in her passport was taken at 2 weeks of age. When we flew back stateside she was 15 months old. Needless to say she looked nothing like her passport. We could have brought any Caucasian child with us. Her eyes were no longer the blue of birth and she actually looked like a kid as opposed to a shriveled old person. So silly.

Is it printed on papyrus?

He appears to be a survivor. I wonder what island and how long he was on it?

“Shortly before I joined the Taliban.”

I’ve been on a deserted island cliche since that picture was taken.

Just before I went in line for the TSA security check.
