clearvision Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 He was at the court house trying to get a copy of his birth certificate... I assume he did not have a driver's license or other ID. Did he just go to the airport and expect to get thru security? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he just go to the airport and expect to get thru security? I have no idea, but my guess is that he has been out of society long enough that things like this come as a surprise. I really hope he has the courage and perseverance to stick to it despite these relatively little setbacks. I hope he has a good mentor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
