IRAN:Family Builds Faux Border Post in Basement, Issues Passports

In an effort to calm the kids and control the chaos, one Tehran family constructed a pretend border checkpoint in their basement. They issued hand-drawn passports, established customs rules ("no gum, no complaining"), and declared sovereignty over the laundry room. "It gives us purpose," said the father, stamping documents with a potato. Relatives must pass basic trivia about family history to gain entry. "I got deported for forgetting Aunt Mina�s cat�s name," said a cousin. The mother now charges duty on snacks. International recognition remains pending. SOURCE: http://bohiney.com/random/
