Did you get the complimentary jug of maple syrup and a hockey puck? ;)
What makes you think I didn't already have those things?
Maple syrup is like a slightly more awesome version of liquid awesomeness.
As for travelling, I kinda need to get a, ya know, current passport first. My British passport expired during my citizenship application process, but I still needed my 'original application documents' right up to the end, so I couldn't replace it at the time. Heck, might as well get two passports now!
