Don’t say exploded, or you’ll probably end up on the same list as my other friends.

You know, I’ve really lost my humor about the US turning to a surveillance state. The gov’t is clearly going to grab for everything it can, and the population obviously doesn’t give a shit. A part of me wants to just roll with the ‘people get the gov’t they deserve’ boat. I have the resources and ability to make sure that I’m never vulnerable to this surveillance, so why should I care, right? Except not.

Absolutely not.

I am in the same boat as your father, when it comes to confirming the original birth certificate, as you know, but my sister’s the one who’s going to have the most fun since hers was issued from on eof the big bad three.
Argh, between this and the national id to maintain my Brit citizenship/passport in two years, I am just THRILLED to bits.
And, oh look, NJ isn’t rejecting it, yet. What a surprise.
(Between this and the TSA posts from you and sasha earlier this week, my head has exploded into itty, bitty pieces).
