As you can see this certificate doesn't look very official. Listing the country as Yugoslavia isn't saying all that much, nor is there an arrival day and boat listed which is commonly recorded on all ship manifests.

Steven Gerbic in Seattle, Washington posted this when the local newspaper asked how the weather was in the area. "It's snowing so badly here I can barely see the house across the street. It just has to be George Bush's fault. Just wait until Howard Dean is elected President. It will be nothing but sunny, blue skies in Hooterville!" posted January 6, 2004 9:59am.
