No Smiling Allowed


The good old days of passport photographs, in which you where allowed to smile, are long gone – due to the restrictions that where introduced following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Normally I am a very laid back, pretty much always happy kind of person. BUT – I really don’t like being told what to do or what not to do, so when the passport photographer told me “Sir, no smiling is allowed”, I think I got slightly pissed off.
I think if I decide to give up my career in IT, I could always go into some sorts of crime related career – I already have the perfect mugshot.

  • Mig u can cheat a human eye but not a camera. Why do i have a feeling, you are actually going to some secret training. And why do u visit me in Bangladesh?

  • I don’t know why , but I used to have a copy of that passport photo in my wallet 😀

  • heh heh heh I fear you are going to get picked out for further inspection at any security check point. Nobody is going to believe it is your passport when they see that criminal in the passport 🙂
