2005. Last time I flew.

I don’t leave the country. I own a very comfortable vehicle. I’m not in a hurry. I can open a window if I fart. I can fart loudly.

Speed is good but not necessary.

I'm seriously thinking about driving for my next business trip.

One airport I travel through is a smaller one and one TSA gubment employee there thinks it is up to him to save the world.

And in that part of the country 90% of the people flying are as white as the background of this website.

2005? I last flew in 2004; came off deployment & had to fly to where my car was stored, the irony. Unaccompanied male, one way flight: the TSA goon threatened to have me strip searched after I said absolutely nothing.

If I can’t drive there in two days, no reason to go. Wife & I drove from the deep South to Canada in a comfortable two day trip.

But you just can’t make this stuff up: U.S. border police scanned our passports and ordered us to pull over to have our car searched. Took 1 1/2 hours. This was in the age of Obama; we are both deployed vets, retired warrant officers & we both have our CCW’s. No one can convince me we weren’t politically singled out.
