The Green Card Vanishes

Four hours before her scheduled 9am flight to Hong Kong on Tuesday, Minnow's Green Card remained in hiding.

Given how she routinely paired the $1,000 card (black market price) with her passport in a dorky neck pouch, and given her quarterly international travel, this disappearance remains more gripping and mysterious than Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes."

Instead of embarking on a 16-hour direct flight to the land of kung-fu films Minnow finally resigned to staying in Gotham for Thanksgiving. Worse, a replacement of this Green Devil takes weeks to months.

For the uninitiated: this means no traveling outside of the US.

Everything happens for a reason, especially something so unprecedented... (too distressed to analyze that now)

Minnow feels like a useless idiot.

Because she is one.
