Entry tags:

S.N.A.F.U.

US citizens refused entry into the country unless they submit to interrogation.

Glad Becca and I got our trip done before:
#1: Air safety went bananas following the UK business.
#2: The Kurds started setting off bombs in Istanbul.
#3: The US stopped letting citizens with Pakistani relatives back into the country.




Those darn Canadians and their Christian zealots!

Okay, I don't think I'm allowed to leave the country anymore. It'll just a long wait in the INS office at LAX, waiting for DHS to remember that my father is Pakistani and deny me entry, and send me back 'home.'

Um, I haven't been to Vegas this year ... time for a vacay!

Like I needed more reasons to hate religious zealots. Growing up around them wasn't bad enough. Now they are destroying important historical sites. Fucking idiots.

Sorry, I'm a bit grouchy. I didn't sleep well and I almost got run over by a guy in a van who ran a stop sign. Jerk.
