Screener Sends Himself Through X-Ray
DENVER - A security screener at the Denver airport has been disciplined for sending himself through an X-ray machine.
"I cannot ascribe any sort of motive to why anyone would do this," said Mike Fierberg, spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration.
Fierberg would not release the screener's name or detail the punishment.
"The screener in question did not jeopardize the safety of any passengers or aircraft," he said Monday. "But it was clearly behavior that is not acceptable."

"I cannot ascribe any sort of motive to why anyone would do this," said Mike Fierberg, spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration. Whadda maroon. Fierberg too. Same motive that people photocopy their face, hand or ass. "Because they can." Oh, and a healthy dose of curiosity. I wonder what the scan looked like?
