I did not appreciate the full body scan in Tulsa, but it really ticked me off that they patted me down because I had a pocket comb and a handkerchief. I just seems like a waste that they could avoid if they weren't scared of profiling bad guys.

My 90 year old father in law had a real confrontation with them on the way to his Bomb Group reunion in Texas. He had some maalox and some other liquids in his carry on and argued with them about giving it up. His son, who was with him, finally got it resolved. It was absurd.

What I found out is that the more you fuss the more they finger your toothbrush. I did learn to shut up, but it's really hard. Especially when you see Muslims going through the expedited line and Muslims doing the inspection.

God what a boring job. I couldn't do it for five minutes.
