Thankfully it was not a Kinder Surprise

But then again you can find a reasonable agent. When studying computer engineering in Massachussetts I found that waiting to sign out tools to do the labs was a pain. So after the next visit home I brought my own. Big mistake! Stopped at a lonely border crossing and searched, the man said I could not bring tools into the USA. He wouldn't accept the above explanation but after a long conversation he noticed several ham radio antennas on my car and prompted me to say that the tools were to keep my equipment in working order, then he let me through!
