This week I had to go to the Philadelphia social security office to officially change my last name. I was expecting a DMV-esque pit of government bureaucracy and human despair, but I was not expecting George Takei.
That's right, George Takei and Patty Duke have teamed up to encourage seniors to boldly go to socialsecurity.gov and conquer the final frontier: the internet. There was actually a giant poster of them in the office that I wish I got a picture of, but I didn't have my camera with me so these handouts will have to suffice. Don't be too disappointed, though, you can still watch a bunch of sweet PSAs they made by boldly going to the
social security website.
