Security everywhere

[Charles]

Your papers, Herr D-Man.

You were carrying TWO pocketknives? Did they find the razor in your shoe? Only hope they didn't steal one that you were attached to.

I'm of a notion that these zero tolerance security measures are insane. And ineffective. It must be an effort at stopping terrorism, but what kind of idiot terrorist would pull a pocketknife in a crowd at a basketball game? I would advise anyone who tries this to first attach a lanyard, as to make it easier to retrieve his sticker from his, well.

I'm just thankful that this is the land of the free and the home of the brave, unlike some of those countries which are effectively police states.

Which reminds me. Back during the Ricin scare, the local pizza joint called the Chief of Police to investigate a pizza crust box which contained a suspicious white power. They also had a big scare at the courthouse due to a suspicious package left out front, which turned out to be a crumpled paper sack with some garbage in it.
