Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist party?

In my last year of high school (1984) my parents went to a PTA meeting and the headmaster greeted my Dad with the words "Ah, you must be Comrade Moses." Dad's reply? "Who the *EXPLETIVE DELETED* is your *EXPLETIVE DELETED* comrade?" 

That was the last PTA meeting my folks went to

You know, I have had to sign papers attesting to the fact I am not and never have been a member of the Communist Party.

I had to do the same thing when I joined up mate. It isn't uncommon.

Yeah, they ask about all sorts of affiliations, though they've by that time investigated you so thoroughly that it's half formality, half control measure, since if they ever did miss something and you lied about it they could prosecute you. (Though they would probably be less about punishing you at that point and more about using you, since facing jail time you might prove malleable.)

One of my positions, albeit briefly and late in things, was handling federal background checks.

Hypothetically, if a retired entrepreneur were to offer a service where after your death you could have your life story written in your blood and bound with your actual skin, would that interest you?

Well, it isn't like I'd have a use for it any more.

That's how I always feel at the BMV when I'm renewing my license and they read this rote pitch to me about putting "organ donor" on my license so they can harvest my parts if I die suddenly. I think well I'm not going to need them anymore, but I also do wonder if I could have arranged to sell them, maybe leave my family a few extra bob.
