It has become almost a joke with me when I go to the airport. I will usually tell the person behind me that I will be pulled out and my bags will be gone through. About 8 out of 10 times I am right. Short, chunky, white middle-aged woman. The TSA people are nice enough, but it is ridiculous. And, it isn’t always at Milwaukee! I’ve flown out of Milwaukee, Seattle, Dallas, Amarillo, Atlanta, Charlotte, Savannah, Burlington,VT, San Francisco and Chicago. The only one I have not been tagged at was in Amarillo. lol I forgot about my nail clippers being in my purse once. Had those puppies confiscated, but not my fountain pen. Go figure.
