strangely, ann and dabney have an obsession with visa stamps and their distribution in their passports.

this fixation began last year after standing in line behind a woman in a bangkok hotel whose passport was over an inch thick. she was obviously one of those world travelers who require several addendum pages to accommodate all her stamps. ann and dabney peered over her shoulder in admiration. ever since, their goal has been to fill their passports. in pursuit of this lofty goal, they experiment with a number of techniques to subtly influence stamp placement, even going so far as to dog-ear or bend back pages before handing it over to customs officials, so it "naturally" falls open to a fresh page.

on the left is an example of ideal stamp distribution, in a & d's opinion. on the right, what not to do.
