Breast milk in a bottle is what I am talking about. If they are going to prevent nursing mothers from nursing because of the "liquid" we will have bigger issues.

Lol, at first I had images of having to show off my secret "skill." :eek: :p

I don't it's secret anymore... :p


Can you imagine? Any woman with a chest would be subject to search.

Well I had thought about posting it in the idiosynchrasies thread....


Security guards everywhere are beginning to tingle.

Dear Boss:

I hereby resign from Jaguar Cars. I have decided to pursue a career with the TSA in airport security. I feel that I am singularly qualified for this duty and have been chosen by a higher power to pursue this great purpose. Thank you for a good 6 years. I have learned a great deal in my time here.

I will remain for two weeks to wrap up current projects and assist with the transfer of my budget and duties.

Yours Truly.

Erik

Wha, wha, get over yourself.

I responded to your call for "tempering" from the people who are there. Everything I've seen from the people who are there paint a far worse picture than the administration is spewing. And, more to the point, paint a picture that matches up almost blow-for-blow with what the pre-war intelligence said would happen - sectarian violence, ecalating towards full scale civil war, aided by foreing insurgency. This isn't what the Congressional detractors said, it's what Bush's military advisors predicted, and they were dead on right.

So yeah, I'm pretty okay with the media pointing that reality out, because all I can hope is that one of these days we'll learn from the fact that this make 6 for 6 over the past century or so where a US lead regime change, not instigated by local revolution, results in even bloodier civil war.

Why am I not surprised at all by this post?

Interviewer (or your boss) But Erik, it's any woman with a chest. Are you able to be non-discriminatory when preforming searches?

Wow! That seems uncalled for! In addition to not making sense. Get over myself? Huh? Where exactly in my post was I proclaiming my greatness?:rolleyes: I was simply asserting what I believed to be obvious, but you are free to refute it.

That aside, it seems clear that our eyes and ears on the scene seem to have terribly different views of the same situation. Since none of us are there, I suppose it is difficult for any of us to say for sure what is going on, but I still have to believe accounts relayed to me from those on the scene that are angry with our media's lack of recognition for their successes and misportrayal of the actuality of the events. And I suppose yours would be happy with the medias portrayal and consider it to be good work. There are no successes. All is failure.

Again, we're not there, so we don't know. Oh well. So, its clearly not ok for the administration to spew their BS spin, without some sort of checks and balances. Fine. I agree. But it's ok for the media to spew their BS without any checks, so long as you happen to agree with their viewpoint? Hmmm, I can't say I agree with that philosophy.

:decap: That smiley is freakin awesome.

So I was just about to shut down when I heard (on nbc) that the airlines are charging passengers whose bags are over the weight limit due to packing their carry on stuff. Now that is fvcked up.

Can't we all just get along and meet somewhere in the middle with the common ground of boobies, tacos and all things shiny?
