  1. I'll be posting from my phone. I actually leave on Friday, mid-day, which is pretty heavy travel. I'll be coming back through Philly. BTW, here's those scandelous photos that we taken.
  2. But if there was, people would call it "profiling". Again, why can't we have NEXUS for domestic travel???????????????
  3. I'm with you...I've had some crappy relationships with boys, but they all led me to the man I have now. They helped me know what I didn't want. I do regret never completing my degree, but all things considered, I've still got an incredible job - I've just had to claw my way to the top instead of starting at it. I guess if I really had to have a "do-over" on something, it would be buying my last car.
  4. The real problem is that the vast majority (80% in a CBS poll) don't care. They'll happily walk through the scanners. But the other 20% of you are going to go out of your way to make this as unpleasurable for the rest of us as humanly possible. And not a one of your are frequent flyers. You're the guys that forget to take the sunglasses off your heads. I apply the 80/20 (http://www.the8020principle.com/) rule to every area of my life. Here's what we know...20% of you are going to make 80% of us miserable in security...of that 80%, 20% of those travelers bring in 80% of the revenue to the a
  5. Damn it, we really need to get the :poke: smiley.
  6. So they wear a badge for 8 hours of exposure and I should be worried about my 20 seconds? Someone call the hospitals and let them know all their employees are going to DIE
  7. What doesn't he want? He got a pottery wheel, a bunch of games for DS and Wii, gosh, I don't even remember...some nerf stuff, lazer tag, these bug things, legos, beyblades, a skateboard...bunch of stuff. Thank God it's all done but the stocking stuffers. $600 this year. Madness. The older one will get books and goofy gifts and the approval to spend some money on his card for clothes. He already has a gas card.
  8. I'm not going to argue with you, but you might want to call Cobb have them turn down their sensors. While you're at it, call sanford stadium and macon arena. Those are 3 recents that I can think of where my heels went off.
  9. What is a "child"? I met a porn star at the airport a couple weeks ago that was 16 when she had her first video on youporn.
  10. I work for a UK based company - it was very entertaining to hear that take on it! After 8 years, and allowing him to dump her every time he wanted a piece of strange, she's earned it.
  11. Do any of you that know so much know why we have to remove our shoes? Do you understand that nearly every heel and every boot have metal in the heel and there is no way to wand and differentiate between the nail in the heel of a shoe and the metal of a bomb...or a boxcutter in a sock for that matter. Since both have been done, we decided to start checking shoes. We learned from our mistakes (or actually, lack of imagination). I agree that a large part of the government is illogical, or redundant or not necessary, but the TSA actually serves some purpose, unlike, say, the czars...and I
  12. what did they claim was the identifying information? are you insinuating that they take a clear picture of the face of the person going through the scanner? Do you really think that a bunch of $10/hr TSA agents would be able to pull off one of the biggest conspiracies since 911?
  13. I actually thought about this a little more...and I think I've been to vocal in my support of TSA. I would never let a cop search my car or give me a breath test or enter my home. I guess because TSA doesn't have such a reputation of voilence and rights violation, so I don't see them as a threat...except to those that think that any TSA actually wants to look at you naked. So, my reasons for skipping joyfully through the scanners are selfish... 1. I'm usually going on a fabulous vacation 2. If the airlines actually took on this burden I wouldn't be able to go on said fabulous vacations
  14. Can you find me a face in any of those 100 images? Or any link to any identity? If you come across my picture...let me know. I'll put it on Facebook. And if the airlines took on the cost of security, we wouldn't have the problem at all...because they would all be out of business. October 2010: The following is a by the numbers look at success of the TSA’s front line agents in October 2010, having stopped 98 guns from passing through security checkpoints, identified and prevented 15 “artfully concealed” items forbidden from passing through security checkpoints and blocked 63 would-be p
  15. Our founding fathers never said that we have the right not to be scanned by advanced metal detecting machines. What's the rights violation? Illegal search? In Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 347 (1967), the Supreme Court ruled that a search occurs only when 1) a person expects privacy in the thing searched and 2) society believes that expectation is reasonable. My nakedness is seen in private - by someone that I'm never going to see again. And society has felt that security screening has been "reasonable" since I began flying.
  16. No...not really. I am wondering, though, where the webcam is. I can't seem to get the video.
  17. http://wewontfly.com/opt-out-day/ Passengers are rallying to peacefully "opt out" of security screening on the day before Thanksgiving. I want it to be known that I will be passing through the North security check point for a mid-day flight. With child in tow. On my way to spend a week with my insane family. If anyone pulls this crap and delays me getting through security - I promise you I will make the news. I'm tempted to get a shirt made that says, "Opt Out Day? Get Out of my Way!"
  18. Especially when it involves an engagement.
  19. I wouldn't want to end up with something too far up there, I'm sure you know what I mean.
  20. I LOVE Veuve Clicquot champagne. It's not expensive ($40, way less than most) but it so delicious. This month, it's a Maxim pick, it's all over Real Housewives and I bet now it's a matter of time before the price increases. I'm going to drink tons of it this weekend...just in case.
  21. Well, the usual suspects went there already...I have a blue rabbit, too. But I'll spare you the pics.
