What happens when you send a philosopher to Congress. Morons like Barbara Boxer are shown to be morons.

You may recall that I signed up for it, instead of TSA Pre-check, because it included expedited customs (though I don’t travel that much internationally), and only costs $15 more. I’ve been provisionally approved after only two or three weeks, but I can’t get an interview until JUNE 27th. So a) I have to make sure I’m in town that day and b) I have to continue to hope for random TSA Pre-check until then.
