    Re: TSA

    I have not had any problems flying however you can tell several have attitudes that fit people who get power for the first time. I have a nephew who is a trouble shooter in the medical fielg and flies a lot he was always getting pulled over and searched etc. he finally asked what the deal was they told him it was because he did not have a return flight. His company would send him somewhere and then they might have to send him to another hospital or two before he returned so all his flights were one way and that sets off an alert i guess. Ask them DJD why you are always singled out. I'll bet its your Avatar

    I had a family member who went to New Orleans for a CDC conference and asked her to pick up some of my favorite things and bring them back to me. She did but they were stolen by airport employees who inspected her luggage.

    I think the reason they single out DJD is because they like what they see, so they go back for a second, more extensive look.

    BIG GILLS! What do you think? lol

    I travel a pretty good bit, domestic and international. Been subject to pretty close scrutiny quite a few times.

    I've seen them going through elderly school teacher looking ladies' stuff while others file past.

    I've also personally stood while they wanded me and went through my stuff while a dude with a head dress big enough for 5 pounds of semtex walked right on through.

    They can't profile without violating political correctness statutes, so they use a random system that snares little old ladies and middle aged white guys. Both those groups are of course well known for their terrorist activities.

    Back during the good old days I've been air born countless times within 45 minutes of getting out of my truck in long term parking. Not any more. If I'm going anywhere that takes less than 6 hours driving, I just get a rental car and drive.
