Next time you're taking off your shoes and getting virtually nekkid in the airport scanner, you might want to keep this little factoid in mind: You're probably receiving closer scrutiny than some of the people working in the airport.
We brought two cats back from Bolivia (long story) and altho we were required to have paperwork, no one looked at the cats, the paperwork, or the cat carrier coming thru security or customs. Exception - every little kid in the airport had to look at the cats.
Before 9/11, my brother had been hired by Argenbright, the company that did the security for Logan. His main asset was that he is huge. He was being paid minimum wage and was let go for "moving around too much"
So when 9/11 happened he was not at all surprised. Argenbright no longer does security for Logan.
We're still not gonna get a kiss are we?
Next thing you know there will be diet pepsi wielding Muslin women on planes.
Points for the Firefly ref.
I wonder - when a member of congress gets groped by TSA, does he or she giggle?
California libel: We have wingnut state legislators who have done the same thing.

ISWYDT!
Once again, the Onion nails it:
TSA Agents To Now Simply Stand At Checkpoints And Remind Passengers That We All Die Someday
Don't we understand that TSA is pure ceremony?
found 73 people working in the airline industry who should have been flagged for their “terrorism-related category codes” as security risks.
If any of them are airline CEOs that would explain a lot about the US air travel experience.
But if you take Amtrak you'll miss the sweet Denver Reacharound!
