It was pretty clear from the context that I was mocking the federal 
bureacracy. If you want to read more into it...

Are you paying for the airfare?

I do? I've always considered myself the "home field" troll of la.general.
We have our racist trolls, police hating trolls, jew hating trolls, 
immigration trolls, scientology trolls, gun control trolls, and then you have 
me.. Troll of Many Topics... popping in from time to time to fan the flames.

If I was getting paid for my opinions or intended to run for Mayor (A Vote 
for Elric is a vote for Anarchy) I'd hire an editor.

Why? I've pissed you off a few times. I annoyed you with my rant about the 
LAFD lack of response during the King Riots, and my support for the sale of 
illegal fireworks in LA. 

If the PIO for the FAA hung on here, he'd be ragging me also. So would the PR 
flack for the LAX Security Guard Union.

I'm in fine company... Jerry Falwell, Bill Mahler, Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Laura. 
There is big money to be made in spouting out poorly conceived nonsense. 
Maybe I can get my own show...
