That sucks Donkey Balls.

I never would need a passport, but I got one anyhow. That will be next on your list I'm sure.

Damn. I believe you could have taken the Mfg itinerary to the US Consulate in Chicago and they would have issued you a passport. I did this with airline tickets a few months ago.

Anyway, go to the website, fill out the paperwork and take it to the Post Office today. Right now it is about two weeks, no rush.

So get an application filled out and sent in asap so you'll be ready for next time.
If nothing else you could use it to take weekend trips to Canada for ice fishing, skiing, habanos, etc ,,,

Well funny how life works. Last night I get asked last minute to go with the boat, then today when I get to work, I'm told to set my toolbag down and go up to the lunchroom. (*&^%$#@! Fucking laid off again.

Damn,,,,I can't even believe what you went through as far as being given a chance to take a trip like that. Canne is unbelievable,,,cruising across the Atlantic is one of those things you always think about doing,,did that once and it was great but on a vessel like that,,,incredible. Now with your job,,,words can't express how bad I feel. Hope things turn around quick for you.

Wade, what a real bummer. I am so sorry. I can't imagine the range of emotions you have gone through in the last couple days! Let us know how we can help.

Bummer about the trip...the boat is looking SWEET though, Wade! You do amazing work.

Personally, I always keep a valid passport in a place I can get to quickly...you never know.
