    Monday eve for me, and yes flying blows. I recall the late 70's and 80's and how much better we were treated as passengers. Back when stewardess' were called stewardess' ;)

    Yeah, flying is the worst. Even though it's uncomfortable, I prefer flying on military cargo planes any day. At least on those flights I don't have to deal with the public.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    My son is friends with a guy who works for TSA. One of his assignments was to take a suitcase full of C-4 and a couple guns through security to "test" some of the other TSA agents. Well needless to say, he got all of it through the scanner without even being flagged. The working TSA agent lost her certification for being able to scan luggage. Doesn't make you feel too safe does it?

    no guns, no crack, no bombs and don't yell any religious chants.

    that should cover the important stuff LOL

    you can't bring liquid over a certain ounce amount unless you buy it AFTER screening. There are a few other ones but nothing that isn't common sense.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    You'd think right? It wasn't a little bit of C-4 either. It was something like 15-20 lbs!!! Plus a gun or two?? WTH? Makes me think whenever I fly.

    Wear socks. They're going to make you take your shoes off and you do not want your feet to make contact with that carpet.

    Just makes me nervous. I'm kind of a worry wart. Told my doctor if the plane goes down I will have a heart attack b4 it crashes and he prescribed Xanax! Went home and looked it up and don't think I will take it. Maybe I just take a sleeping pill. I used to fly a lot for work.

    You won't need Xanax, you'll need fungal cream.... if you don't wear socks! Cannot stress enough the importantance of socks.

    Meh. I fly all the time. Part of the job. Not every trip goes perfect but there is a science to it.

    And yes, it's sad to say, but it's easier to transport a firearm than a bottle of water on a plane.
