This past year, I've begun travelling a lot more for work-related reasons, and whenever co-workers would attempt to check in via the web, I'd always get an error message stating that I would need to check in physically at the airport.
I wrote this off as another case of the airlines not knowing their assholes from their faces, and would sit in the check-in line with people incapable of using the Internet while my travelmates would immediately go through to security.
Yesterday, however, a CSR with Alaska handed me this.
I read through it and realized that I had been flagged. I later met up with my travelmates and joked that I was a trrrst.
After calling the number on the paper, and listening to the manditory recordings, the recording instructed me to go to the TSA website and download a Passenger Identification Verification form.

I wouldn't have had a problem with submitting a quick form detailing my information, but this is fucking retarded.
I have to submit notarized copies of at least three of the following documents via the mail?
Passport
Visa
Birth Certificate
Naturalization Certificate
Voter Registration Card
Driver's License
Goverment Identity Card
Military Identity Card
How does this make things any safer?
Can I just give them a blood sample and allow them to install a camera in my house and get it over with?
Anyways, if you're having trouble checking onto flights via the web, hopefully, this'll help out.
The Texas and American flags fly over the Agricultural Heritage Center & Museum in Boerne, Texas October 1, 2005.
The flags for this bunting were easy to cut out with a wavy edge using CraftGeek Trim It 9 blade trimmer.
The art of flag throwing dates back to medieval guilds (principally in Italy). A guild's banner or flag was considered a symbol of purity, and as such it was not allowed to touch the ground.
. In acrobatical flag throwing, the thrower uses both hands to move the flag in a sitting, laying, or kneeling posture.The tradition of flag throwing is thought to have arisen from medieval battle, the ensign carrier being one of the most important soldiers on the field of battle, carrier of the symbol of the army, expected to defend the flag with his life and rally the troops to its colours. In the event of his being overcome, he would throw the flag to a comrade and so began the practice of hurling the banner high in the sky to land safely in the hands of another.
Carly wanted a flag cake for her birthday, but she wanted cupcakes so we tried to make a cupcake cake... but forgot to count how many cupcakes we needed for design and focused on how many we needed for feeding people.
I took the leftover batter and baked a small cake for my husband... turned out we needed it for cupcakes!! oops. A bit of improvising and it turned out cool. Nice compliment when 5 year olds say they are the best cupcakes they've ever had! ha ha
A number of flags on one of the stands at Royal Troon Golf Club following the recent British Open that was recently played. All are being brought down and deconstruction should be completed by the end of August!
I only wish the flags were all flying in the same direction for our Weekend Theme!!
