Re: get the TSA back

I asked a TSA agent who was checking boarding passes and IDs if a person
has multiple personalities do they need a separate ID for each? He
responded by asking me if a person with multiple personality disorder
threatens suicide is it a hostage situation? Some of them do have a
sense of humor :)

I don't mind most of the security stuff, even if it is for show,  but
they actually effectively lessened my security. I'm really tired of them
stealing things like luggage straps.

TSA=Take Something Away

Cheers,

Randy

Just enough to get them scratching their heads.


It's great to joke about, but not to practice as a joke. As I said 
earlier, bad idea.

Don't mess with:
1. People trying to do their jobs.
2. People who are on alert for criminals and terrorists.
3. People who have the power to arrest you.
4. People who have guns to do their job.
and:
5. People who are forces to check you completely with the mere mention 
of a joke, as it might not be a joke.

I've considered carrying a bag of dildoes when I fly. I imagine a
conversation something like this;

TSA: What's this?!?

Me: A bunch of dildoes.

TSA: Why are you carrying a bunch of dildoes?

Me: It makes me feel safe.

TSA: How does a bunch of dildoes make you feel safe?

Me: I've been asking the same thing since they created the TSA.


Funny.  Good one there.  I had a buddy of mine that said he was going
to
start putting a dildo in his pants for full body scanners, that way,
when
they did the scan, and there were two...  uh...
