I saw a great line from Seinfeld the other night ... when George asked Jerry why he set off the airport scanner when he had no metal objects on him he replied "I must have iron-rich blood".

I can top your steel-toe boots. My dad always delighted in passing through the metal detectors even back in the 70s and 80s (he passed through the big metal detector in the sky in 84).
