- I’m getting more responsible everyday… as long as I can keep track of everything I have to do!
- Didn’t go to work since I NEEDED to get some (home)work done. Hopefully, Marcy’s okay with that.
- I don’t feel intimidated by missing a class the way I used to. Which means I’m more likely to GO to the next class.
- Paid the first part (of three) of chapter dues (not including the partial scholarship I received from Grand Council, which covers a little over 15% of the total cost).
- Racist, sexist, and homophobic propaganda can be so ridiculous it’s funny.

Border Tunnel Prevention Act of 2006
09/21/2006, 109th Congress, 2nd Session
(U.S.) House (of Representatives) Roll Call No. 469
Passed: 422-0, 10 not voting
The House passed H.R. 4830, to amend chapter 27 of title 18, United States Code, to prohibit the unauthorized construction, financing, or reckless permitting (on one’s land) the construction or use of a tunnel or subterranean passageway between the United States and another country, by a yea-and-nay vote of 422 yeas with none voting “nay”, Roll No. 469.
Or, more simply: “The passage of this bill makes it a crime to construct an unauthorized tunnel across a U.S. international border.”
W.T.F. An “unauthorized tunnel“?!?! WHY do we need Congress to waste time on something like THIS? Are they complete DELIQUENTS?
