I like to use my Bail Enforcement Agent (BEA) card that I ordered from Soldier of Fortune Magazine and my CHL badge....

By that description do you simply mean a passport, which I guess may now be described with the additional word book? (and if that's so, the additional word book seems rather redundant...)

Of course, I now see the word "bar" after dive. As a kid, a low life bar was just called a dive...and we knew what it was without elaboration. Are we so slow we need further explanation? Yes, I'm being cranky...

The other one that bugs me (for us diver types) is BCD. When I was a hard core diver, the initials for this device was an easy BC for Buoyancy Compensator, now it's stand for Buoyancy Compensator DEVICE. Whoa, that additional letter is REALLY necessary for complete understanding. Yeah, sure...
Passport book...as opposed to passport card...they make them now. They're both passports, hence the qualifier book. :rules:

If a business has a legitimate need for ID, I usually show my passport card. :mrgreen:
Gotta get me one of them.... It's like Federal super-duper, I'm a citizen, and the US of A says I am, and like lots of ID numbers...but no address.... :cool: :cool:

Have a passport book, but for the Wal-Mart and 7-11 "police", it just doesn't pull the weight of a Passport Card, or Consular Matricular de Mexico, or Massachusetts Liquor ID.
