I bought a powerball ticket this morning. But I couldn't remember if it were powerball or something else. Der.
I am not allowed to access the powerball website at work because it's been flagged as gambling. So true.
Feeling less tragic today but still overwhelmed.
That's true, but it has also been covered a whole lot in the news in the past decade or whatever it's been. I myself always have to think, oh right, that's changed, but it's not new information to be outraged about.
I can never get over how outraged people get in the airport security line when their full-size shampoo bottles get taken away.

Yes, or their giant bottles of water.
We now have 10-year passports, instead of five. five more years to fill more pages. OTOH, I'm stuck with my passport picture for that long. Though this one's not the worst. That was two passports ago.
As a Certified Passport Acceptance Agent, I can tell you that people think ALL SORTS of crazy things about passports. My favorite is the people who think the person applying for the passport doesn't need to be present. No, you cannot just apply for a passport for your spouse because he's so busy, or for your teenager because she hates to get up early.

I sympathize. I was the Social Security office, and one woman spent twenty minutes yelling at the clerk that she didn't need to have her daughter's birth certificate because it should be enough that she knew when her daughter was born.
Man, my passport expired years ago!
Have y'all seen that residents of New York, New Hampshire, Louisiana and Minnesota may require passports (or similar) soon just to fly domestic?
Wow. That's disturbing.
I don't know about the other states, but for Louisiana declining to upgrade the security standards was openly and explicitly "na na you can't make me" to the Feds.
But no matter where you live, don't wait until they drop the hammer on those states to get you passport application in, would be my advice. I can't imagine what the processing time will be if they really go there.
