No, but I did once get hassled for entering Canada with almost no cash. They grilled me and my wife for 45 minutes about what we were going to do in case our car breaks down, or some other random crappy event takes place.

fuck this shit. really?
do they like ask you all kinds of questions, where you from, where you going, how much money you got, whats on your ipod, i want to see your confidential documents on your laptop etc.?
all you see when you travel from Holland into Belgium is slightly different houses. there is not even a sign that says "you are now entering Belgium. please have your shit ready to be declared to some customs official fuck".

Nah, China did. And it sure kept the mongolians the fuck out, with all their horses and axes. It even became a national wonder.
What will this one be called? The Great Toronto-Maple-Leafs wall? Or the Great Chihuahua Wall?
If you cannot see through this post my real belief on the subject (since its the internet, and sarcasm does not travel well) I believe this shit is utter crap. Wall, wtf? Its the fucking 21st century. Everywhere has the same issues with illegal immigration and whatnot.
Shit lately has been really really retarded, and its getting more retarded by the minute.
It almost seems as the people in power are in a competition to out-retard each other.
And the general population seems only concerned about what to wear to the disco on Friday night, and also about who will be eliminated in the next episode of American idol. Couldn't be bothered to give a fuck about what the fuck is going on around them, other than those two crucial, life-altering issues on Friday and on American Idol.

I look like a terrorist/drug addict and all I had to do was tell em the address I was going to. No hassles. Coming back into the US was even easier, surprisingly.

You are an FTR station-pwn'ing badass motherf**ker. You have no pansyass, girly-girl, crybaby fears. Pwn the f**king stations like you know you ought to. And win some damn money, dammit.
