This really isn't all that funny. I don't think they are as concerned with surgical implants as they are with artifical enhancements, like gel filled push-up bras.

In the last scare there was talk about baby bottles containing explosive liquid, so it's not that far a stretch that they would put an explosive gel in a female terrorist's bra. The bra could be easily removed and the gel used once the female is in the plane.

Go down to the lingerie department and feel some of those push up bras, they hold a mighty lot of gel and it could be easily removed and replaced with whatever gel they needed for their purposes.

It's no stretch at all (pun intended) for me to imagine that one could find a bent volunteer willing to have explosive implants surgically inserted. Why not? If you were already willing to die, would you care where the explosion came from?

What, we're supposed to not laugh at something so clearly risible? This is a hoot.

Of course somebody can sneak gel onto a plane. Hell, they can do it easier that fake boobs, with a gel-filled baggie shoved up their butthole -- more room, harder to detect, and if they're going to blow it up it hardly matters which part of the body explodes first, does it?

So what's next, body cavity searches on every passenger?

Since there's no constitutional right to fly as a passenger on an airplane, why don't we all just forget flying and go back to trains and buses? /sarc

Me, I prefer to laugh about it. I'm flying cross country this Saturday -- I NEED to laugh tonight.

My 79-year-old mother had two mastectomies, and she wears a bra with gel-filled cups. No more trips to Florida for her, I guess.
