People complain a lot about their passport photos, but ours are some of the best pix we have. At least, black-and-white photographs seem to flatter. Birth certificates are funny documents as well. So many people learn for the first time under what names they were really registered with the authorities when they first see their birth certificates; some even find that their birthdays are not what they thought. A marriage certificate just copied this morning shows that the license was number 322 for that jurisdiction; was that for the year or from the beginning of time?
