2. Dick Durbin's gonna wag HIS finger at you...
Ever notice how quickly the Powers That Be quashed all mention of opposition to the TSA screenings after Thanksgiving?

3. Actually I'm not sure it was quashed. Most people that went through it seemed to not think it was a
big deal. There were problems and some of them were downright nasty but it seems for the most part it went okay.

4. I think that was a good time to let it out...
I would rather sit next to someone that finished farting at the security station rather than waiting to do so on the plane.

5. You made ME laugh...
.
.
.
.
.
...and remember an old joke that I first heard a buddy in Europe claim was
a first-person experience.
.
.
He said he had gotten on a relatively crowded bus while inebriated and quickly
became quietly, expansively and unpleasantly gaseous.
.
.
He turned to the older woman sitting next to him and glaring at him in disgust
and said, "That's right. Look at me like that and they'll think that I did it!!!"
.
.
.
.
.
When I finally heard that as an old joke, I was a little disappointed that it
probably didn't really happen to and with my buddy.
.
.
.
But, then again... I didn't REALLY get arrested at the TSA Checkpoint either.

6. old joke or not, they are still funny
Anyone that doesn't like humor is doomed to die these days by the end of high school, with all the crap in the world.

We all need to laugh:toast:

7. I wouldn't be surprised if you were charged for something like that.
What kind of charges do you think will be filed?
