sandintoes, The local regional trauma center used the services of agencies for various hospital personnel, especially RNs and respiratory therapists. These personnel were called "visitors." For some reason many of these visitors came from the Deep South. All of them flew one way and on short notice, which circumstance automatically set them up for the full treatment at airport security. Of course, they packed tweezers, small scissors, etc., until they learned not to do so.

Well one RN with whom I often chatted out in the smoking atrium told me that after being robbed of her tweezers and small scissors, looked over into the bin in which they were tossed, whereupon she turned to the TSA drone and drawled, "Why y'all got 'nuff ovah theyah to build y'all selves a whole 'nother ayahplayan!" - Holly
