They had us go thru the body one as well as the metal one. Now tsa is matching boarding passes with id before we board!"<br /><br />I texted her back: "Told ya."<br /><br />I suppose TSA is on the lookout for someone who might commandeer a jet after liftout from IND and fly it back around to crash it at the Speedway. Wonder how many knives in the bottom of cellphone pockets TSA missed today.Fuzzy Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802539927743643041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-5548114158927545682009-05-22T11:26:42.901-04:002009-05-22T11:26:42.901-04:00I'm kinda hard-nosed about "them": The Big They. ...I'm kinda hard-nosed about "them": The Big They. I decided in 1979 that I would no longer generate wealth to be taxed and mis-spent on waste. I dropped out--and did quite well, actually. <br /><br />Given my attitude, I'd not stay with a job that necessitated commercial flights. I refuse to be treated as though I'm a potential terrorist. There are a gazillion ways to make a living without being abused.<br /><br />I flew to Germany in 2000 to go to my son's wedding. That's it. I won't tolerate the indignity of such garbage.<br /><br />Before TSA, remember when the airport security at Phoneix took away Joe Foss's Medal of Honor? The given reason was that it had sharp points. I knew right then that we were "freaking doomed", as the Mogambo Guru expresses it.<br /><br />As far as I'm concerned, the TSA can take its Practicing Proctologists and let them use their noses in lieu of the TV camera--on somebody else besides me.<br /><br />ArtAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-14751300860429550722009-05-22T11:06:23.523-04:002009-05-22T11:06:23.523-04:00I knew a guy who walked through with two expended ...I knew a guy who walked through with two expended shotgun shells in his jacket pocket and no one noticed.BobGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405172215849046373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-36573463592403076142009-05-22T09:37:52.134-04:002009-05-22T09:37:52.134-04:00Hogans Heroes?

I'd say more like <I>Midnight Express</I>, chopped up to suit a 90-minute running time on local UHF TV at a time when children might possibly be awake to watch.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04780425923108876647noreply@blogger.com
