Here's a bit of extreme lunacy from the TSA that I found posted at Stupid Security.
Speaking to 280 fellow soldiers before they boarded a chartered DC-10 at the start of their marathon flight from Savannah to Kuwait City earlier this week, King was thunderous, blunt and well armed with an M-16 rifle slung over his shoulder.I just don't know what to say on this one. Every sarcastic remark that leaps to mind just falls short of the derision that this deserves."Interfering with a flight crew is a serious crime,"” he told them. "“Don'’t be stupid. Don't be a moron. Don'’t even joke about going to Havana. That'’s not where we're headed today."
King, who in civilian life is the Doraville police chief, rolled his eyes at the FAA regulation that requires soldiers, — all of whom were armed with an arsenal of assault rifles, shotguns and pistols — to surrender pocket knives, nose hair scissors and cigarette lighters.
"If you have any of those things,"” he said, almost apologetically, "“put them in this box now."

There are some things that parody themselves. There's really no where to go with this one. Thanks for sharing it though. How do they differentiate between pocket knives and military knives? Worse, what if they've got military issue pocket knives. I used to have one.
