There is nothing to fear but...

realizing that the people you went to school with are now in control of the U.S.A.

I always think whenever I get on a plane that the people who are fueling the plane, fixing the engines and basically running the world now are the same goofy fuckers that walked around highschool with their flys down and toilet paper hanging off their feet. You may have seen these before but they are hilarious, and scary at the same time. These are reported Air Force 'Squawks'. These are the things that get reported and the solutions to the problems. Reading these just makes me wonder what might be going on in other places.
