I was going through security today at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. My shoes (aparently) set off the metal detector so I was asked to remove them and put them through the x-ray. I did as told and went through the x-ray just fine. But when it was time to put my shoes back on I had a big problem: I couldn't remember how to tie my shoes. I tried to tie them unsuccessfully 3 times before giving up and walking to a chair with my laces flopping around. I imagine I must have looked ridiculous.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
