I expect at some point the seats on an airplane will have built in ankle and wrist cuffs. Only job the stew will have is locking your ass into the seat and not letting you out until at the terminal on arrival. Greatest new invention will be urine absorbing seat cushions.

It will be interesting to see what new rules the TSA comes up with to punish the traveling public this time.

The only flight I've taken in years was up to Sacramento last Easter to take care of my daughter's animals while she and my grandsons went to Hawaii over Easter vacation.

The TSA guy in LA took my laptop out of the bag and went behind a screen. He was gone for twenty minutes. He then repacked the computer in the bag rather than let me do it. When I finally unpacked it up at Tahoe, I discovered he had dropped it on the right corner and broke the hinge. It took $450 and 6 weeks to get it fixed because my techie couldn't find the frame that goes around the screen - a necessary part to attach the hinge to.
