Threatening Toothpaste
The source for this true story is "Deep Throat" and if the FEDS come knockin I will not reveal their identity. On Friday Deep Throat went through an airport security check with a tube of toothpaste undetected in it's carry-on luggage. The luggage went through the x-ray and was never opened or questioned in any way. Now the POINT of this tale is NOT "Yeah, I broke the stupid-ass rules". NO, the POINT of the story is that the Federal Avaition and Anti Terrorist restrictions and rules aren't going to work unless enforced. Either carry through with your mind numbing list of items that can be carried on an airplane or GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE.

Funny, yet insightful. but mostly I laughed!
Thanks. I LIVE for recognition and praise.
funnily enough i've just got back from travelling through edinburgh, malta and schippol airports in both directions (with easyjet and air malta). edinburgh has taken on all the same baggage rules as america (eg bag size, no liquids, no make-up etc..) but neither of the other two have (though i noticed easyjet have taken on the handluggage size limitation - on air malta some passangers had hand luggage bigger than me) which means of course than edinburgh is rigouressly enforcing what leaves it but... er.. not what enters it.
erm... great!
I vote the latter.
