Canada Customs: Where do you live?
Roger: Bellingham.
Canada Customs: What’s the purpose of your visit?
Roger: I sing in Vancouver Men’s Chorus…
(Usually my response continues “… and we rehearse on Wednesdays.” But this was a Saturday.)
Roger: … and I’m going up for the Tenor Section potluck.
Canada Customs: (Incredulously) You’re a Tenor?
(I use my “butch voice” with authority figures, even nice Canadian ones.)
Roger: We have First Tenors, Second Tenors, Baritones, and Basses. I’m a Second Tenor.
Canada Customs: Did you bring anything?
Roger: Treats from Trader Joe’s.
Canada Customs: Are you carrying any firearms?
(Apparently my “butch voice” is extra butch.)
