Well I guess it happens to everyone, and it was just our time.
My mom decided to be a real sweet heart and send me and rusty a package filled with all sorts of snacks and reminders of home, but to our surprise, we didn't get a package but we got all this paperwork along with a warning of customs violation!
We're not in trouble or anything, and it's not really that big of a deal but as we can see in this bright and clearly marked flier, Beef Jerky is not allowed to
be shipped into japan.

Apparently from what I could gather from it, some sort of outbreak happen awhile ago with pigs and all packaged meat from america or canada has been labeled unsafe unless intentionally inspected by a customs officer. But because we just want our package, we decided to fill out the paper work to get it back to us.
We really just wanted our
care package, so we our only option
was to consent to incineration
of non-permitted articles
(the thought of which made pastor Tommy cry out because he wanted to snag a piece!).
Alas, we shall not have our beef jerky, but within a few days (hopefully!) we will receive the safe, un-life-threatening package!
