Damn it,he could have made it interesting.
The one thing you can say about the TSA is they don’t make much of any exceptions.

I watched them make multiple exceptions late one evening. The terminal was pretty much closed, except for the flight that I was waiting for. The TSA guys that were there were only making sure no one got to the gates. Sure enough, a cleaning crew had no problem going right past them with their carts and everything. No screening at all. It reminded me of the early days, when flight crews got a free pass (until the disgruntled worker in California took out a plane with a carry-on gun).
No exceptions, of course, unless you are a young, Arab male. I went through TSA security last week in Charlotte as I was making my way home from Brazil. I watched in amazement as an elderly white woman in a wheel chair and a 4 year old, blue eyed, blond boy who was traveling with her were pulled aside and searched. Meanwhile, 3 males of obvious middle eastern descent (speaking Arabic in line) passed right through unquestioned. Happens almost every time I go through TSA (illusion of) security......
