I thought the Republicans were supposed to be calling the shots these days.

Oh crap! Just when Red McCombs was set to dump the Vikings, now this! Evidently, some of the players are finding more creative ways to spend their bucks!

an NFL player had been detained at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport after authorities found the state-of-the-art prosthetic in his luggage

By what authority did the airport police detain him?

This is the dangerous direction we are moving with all this security paranoia.

The device is legal. It is not a danger to aircraft, yet some busybody decided they have been appointed school yard discipline mother for the whole nation.

I'm going to save this article.

received national attention last week when it was learned that an NFL player had been detained at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport after authorities found the state-of-the-art prosthetic in his luggage (with a packet of dehydrated urine).

If the devices are not already illegal, why was he detained?

Then there are moments spent discussing the Whizzinator.

So al Qaeda is using these to kill people? Or do the puritans reckon it's better to die sober than live buzzed?

Gotta read the whole article -- it's a laugh every paragraph:

"How will we stop the flow?" he asks plaintively. A small cluster of spectators -- seizing on the unintended double-entendre -- giggle audibly in the back of the room.

Bwa! Maybe we need to start fighting these useless congresscritters by mocking them.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

But, but, we GOTTA outlaw this! It's not enough to put Sudafed and Cough Medicine behind the counter next to the tobacco products!
