Mood: annoyed
Music: Trance Tuesday #022 - track 1-Tranceportal.org
I ran across the following on the TSA's Website:

TSA Week at a Glance (November 10, 2008 - November 16, 2008)
* 11 passengers were arrested due to suspicious behavior or fraudulent travel documents
* 35 firearms found at checkpoints
* 2 artfully concealed prohibited items found at checkpoints
* 12 incidents that involved a checkpoint closure, terminal evacuation or sterile area breach

As a service to you, I'm going to translate that into English:
* 11 passengers were arrested due to suspicious behavior or fraudulent travel documents

2 people questioned why they had to take off their shoes at the scanners
1 person made idle jokes in the long lines
3 people smudged food their boarding passes
1 paraplegic refused to get out of their wheelchair
4 people spoke english with a middle-eastern accent

* 35 firearms found at checkpoints

35 idiots forgot to unpack their guns

* 2 artfully concealed prohibited items found at checkpoints

2 people forgot a pair of tweezers at the bottom of their purse

* 12 incidents that involved a checkpoint closure, terminal evacuation or sterile area breach
