So I take it you like getting strip searched and maybe if your extra lucky they might throw in a free cavity search.

Hmm, perhaps you're not familiar w/the concept of sarcasm? I've had some really minor, NON-terrorist-related stuff confiscated by over-zealous TSA agents (Like a metal nail file <3" long), so I tend to travel light and lay it all out for them. Haven't had anything more than a wand search. One would hope that some might have a sense of humor about such a bag, esp since it's obvious that none of the contraband items are actually being seen on xray...

My experience has shown me that most security personnel don't have much of a sense of humor about that kind of stuff. I always play by the rules, yet I get random searched every blessed time I go through security, even when I'm traveling with my child.

That bag is funny! I was travelling for work recently, and a lady had to take off her FLIP FLOPS and have them scanned!

Apparently she could have been hiding knives in the soles!

well of course you got stopped. i bet its aganist the law to stop people that fit the terroist profile, so they pick people like you, old ladies in wheelchairs(yes i saw that once)

fastnoc, i never planned to travel with the laptop, and this was before 9/11
by about year, After that, lol yea, i got asked lots of questions, until my new job finally was able to get me a new ibm
