13. This is why

I will not fly. Screw the TSA.

They don't come much whiter than me but I will not support an industry that treats my fellow humans so horribly, for no real reason other than racism. I do understand that lots of people have no choice but flight. But over the past 15 years I have traveled back and forth across the country and I have done every trip, IN A CAR. Yep, it took a few days. But, again: I will not fly. Sure saves me a lot of grief.
