Hope the minimum wage rent-a-cops at airport terminals are sure to check grandma from Iowa real good. But be sure not to upset middle eastern males by asking them to submit to searches.

I agree with your cynicism but the security at OIA make a very decent living. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember the ads after 9/11 offering hourly wages ranging from $18.00 to $30.00 per hour. While that's not going to make your rich, the benefits and pensions are quite attractive around these parts. Let's just hope they do their jobs.

OIA is expecting heavy Delius do to the elevated security. No shampoo, toothpaste, mouthwash, etc. Their going to make you prove the content of baby formula. All shoes will be inspected. (Except of course middle eastern men in their 20's /s) This should be interesting on the evening news.

Don't forget the intrepid TSA:

They damn well better check grandma from Minnesota. I've been there and it's overflowing with Somalis (many of the cab drivers, store clerks etc).
And they inter-marry. That pretty young blond could easily be a convert.

Check everyone. Just be efficient.

Some good friends of mine with 7 month old twin boys were scheduled to fly back to Indianpolis today. They have been over there for 2 months while he was taking a class.

That's what I asked, "No grandma's? No little kids 5 years old, no Christians or Jews, as some of the suspects?"

Not to worry, the ACLU is protecting them and their liberal supporters. Wasn't it just a couple of weeks ago they let the guy on the plane with the hollowed out shoe heel?

Man allowed to board plane with apparent bomb components

Snip: One has to wonder why the man hollowed out his shoes and allegedly lied about his computer. A battery taped to his clock was rather odd, but, was not illegal. Was the man probing airport security, a confused traveler, or was he perhaps a hard headed individual with a bad attitude?
