Once, a number of years ago, I was taking an anatomy class, and I went home for the holidays. I had a human skull (a real one) to study, and I brought it with me. Not wanting to lose it or have it damaged, I carried it on the plane, without thinking of what it would look like when I went through security.

As the innocent-looking box went through the X-ray, they obviously triggered some sort of alarm. Suddenly, there were police officers standing next to me, looking very nervous indeed.

I realized (a bit late, I know) what I'd done, and announced "no, it's OK; I'm a medical student, and that's a skull to study."

As I opened the box, they all backed away, wide-eyed, and I could see they thought there was going to be a human head in the box. But once they could see it was an old skull, they all crowded back around, and thought it was neat.

I wouldn't want to make the same mistake now...

ROFLMAO! Someone alert Greta von Susteren!

[BenLurkin]

Is she looking for a replacement head?

[SIDENET]

I'm not one bit surprised. It is 2006 and these people are still dancing around dead chickens.

Hey, what's wrong with that?

stops dancing...puts down chicken...

Carrion luggage?

Hey, everybody is entitled to one carrion.

"If it wasn't USDA inspected, you can't bring in meat from foreign countries. It doesn't matter if you plan to eat it yourself."

Yup. I tried to get some chewable Heart-Gard for my doggies from Australia (cheaper)and they said they could only sell the pill. The chewable type contained beef and they could not ship/import it to the US.

[SGCOS]

Only one?

[kdot]

HAHA! You beat me to it. I was going to ask if there was a bag of dried beans with it!

[farlander]

I think she was more of an amateur variety.

She was a bipolar schizophrenic and needed the ability to simultaneously keep her chin up while hanging her head in shame.

[farlander]

Not sure, but ever-present special coverage on good looking disappeared young women are getting a bit... stale.

I see an emerging market here if Ms. Severe and her voodoo cult could hook up with the goods produced by the 'toon Mohammad head choppers cult... ;)
