Upon reentering the USA in Las Vegas the immigration officer asked me a # of questions & then wrote # 201 in big black sharpie on the top of my customs form. Upon handing the form to the customs officer, he looked at it & then directed me to the secondary inspection area. Anyone know what the # 201 designation refers to? I'm wondering what in the heck prompted this-what I did or said. It was a time consuming hassle waiting behind a bunch of tourists who had the # 401 on their forms-apparently a secondary currency inspection. I was grilled with a bunch more questions about my trip, my associates & my arrest history. My bags were scanned & I was sent on my way.

Wasn't 201 the old room number of SinCity's room at Zona2 when Jimmy had it.......

Weird, immigration describes 201 as such...

"§201(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act ("INA") defines "immediate relatives" to include:

spouses,
minor Ch*ldren (under the age of twenty-one), and
parents of U.S. citizens (if the citizens are at least 21 years old).
This category is clearly reserved for immediate relatives of U.S. citizens, not permanent residents. There is no limit to the number of immediate relative visas that may be issued in this category in any given year."

Maybe if you married a Tica, they figure you're dumb enough to try something stupid, or desperate to get money to pay for her and her three K*ds by three different dads you now own...

I can't remember if # 201 was the # of my room but Jimmy did give me the nameplate off the door before he left & I proudly display it in my office at home in sincity
