While we were at the counter, we noticed a couple shuffle in and look around. They looked like they'd be lost at a Burger King, let alone the post office. The clerk looked up, noticed them and asked if they were there to apply for a passport. The man was. The clerk told them to pick up an application and then asked if the guy had proof of US citizenship. "I have a driver's license," the man said.
"No," said the clerk, "I'll need a birth certificate."
"A birth certificate?" the man asked.
"Oh no, he cain't git a birth certificate," the woman who was with the man blurted out, obviously distressed.
"Why not?" asked the clerk.
"'Cause he's from Arkansas." came the answer.
Do they not have birth certificates in Arkansas?
