(A tutorial on how to freak Customs' Officers out....but ONLY if you have alot of extra time...)

• A genuine hangman's noose.
• Large amounts of Monopoly money.
• Realistic drawings of Margaret Thatcher, in the nude. (Change as appropriate, depending on the country you visit).
• Several pounds of white flour in sachets placed inside your shoes. (Claim that it is flour, but look very nervous).
• A thick folder with the title "How to Fool Customs Officers" in large letters. Make sure all the pages are blank.
• A book by the title "How to Start a Trotskyst Revolution." (For added effect, speak with a thick foreign accent and wear a three-day growth of beard).
• Half a dozen, very real-looking, but completely fake, hand grenades (together with the above book, for additional impact).
• A large number of used condoms, tied in pink and blue ribbons.
• A half-eaten pastrami sandwich, wrapped in a Playboy centerfold.
• A dozen bottles of vodka, filled with water.
