one of the first things i did was set up "fake mainstream front" business cards and all.

Been doing that for years even though the business was totally fake, i give out cards to friends and family, got hundreds printed in case...... however, never been hassled by customs. and if so, id give them my card and pull up my totally mainstream site lol

but As an American, i have to wonder, what kind of nazi shit is that asking what you do for a living to board a plane? LOL
