Odd things at ORD Saturday night. We came through at a fairly late hour, and things were dead. Mrs. Milepig and I both used kiosks. Mine went right through but here machine started acting up and then said to see an officer. There was NO ONE anywhere near the kiosks, and we sort of milled around for a couple minutes - I was done first and went to see if I could help her, etc. The lanes were competely open and no one ever came over to see what was going on. We could easily have just walked through.

We went to the officer, and got her cleared manually.

The second odd thing was that at customs the person asked to see my passport, and checked that I had a sticker on the back. This is the first time this has happened to me.

I can also verify that the "Do tou have any fruits, vegetables....." message is indeed the one currently on the screens. So, even though I had chocolates I said "no".
