All your butts are belong to us?

Make your time[er]...

I'm not putting that magnet near my computer! I don't know where it's been!

[WestCoastGal]

I see you found this one.

Even the bomb sniffing dog wouldn't sniff that.

Even this thread will become hysterically funny, this guy had to be up to something.

Look,

You're only allowed SO many carry ons....

Gotta have a "BACK UP" for your laptop, cell charger, and game boy.....!!!

[RegulatorCountry]

LOL, we're getting a little slow on the uptake. Nearly 100 replies before somebody went there.

John Glenn also got the nickname "Magnet A$$" in the Korean War due to his plane getting so many holes in it.

"He didn't bother to conceal his shaped charge IED, though."

Boy! Is that an understatement!

"His prior job was holding notes to the refrigerator."

He used to do a job an American did not want to do... holding food coupons on the refrigerator.

Alternative Reply:

"Is that a compass in your pocket, or are you just happy to be flying over the North Pole"....???

[Kellis91789]

That was my first thought as well.

[DeFault User]

They probably did a wand search and the guy started screaming:

Palomino! Palomino!

[Grizzled Bear]

Would that really happen?

That depends on which direction the magnetic field "pulls" it. We could hope for a scene out of "Alien."

[silentreignofheroes]

Well maybe we have an idea in this case,,,

Magnets can also teach facts of Life,,ever try to put two North poles together,,nature does'nt allow it..

"Magnet Therapy for the relief of pain"

And all this time, I've been swallowing the Advil, not stuffing it. No wonder it didn't work...

"TWA 800 was said to have been tested on previous flights to refine the seat location for the bomb to achieve criticality."

I'd think the first class lavatories would do the trick, on everything but the largest commercial passenger jets, so long as it's powerful enough to pierce the fuselage. Of course, suspicious activity would be more likely to be observed and disrupted, that close to the cockpit door.

[JB in Whitefish]

Well, THAT had to be a shocking discovery....!!!
