I’m looking at it from the perspective of how profiling could be used to prevent these security breaches…

It’s a wonder she didn’t blow up the plane with the flatulence and matches. f her farts were wet would they be considered a liquid explosive. Easier to smuggle some beans that acetone…….

At least she took responsibility and lite a match.
That’s sort of polite.

Should I have laughed as hard as I did at this? And I’m not even sure which party was funny.

Reminds me of the passage in Vonnegut’s Galapagos (sp?) novel, where humankind evolves into seal/walrus-like creatures, but some things don’t change. Three of them lie on a beach, sunning themselves. One passes gas and they all chuckle.

I love Vonnegut. Could we convince him to be a guest blogger here?

Hunh. I prefer the Glare at the Person in the Next Seat While Gasping and Waving my Hands Near my Nose approach, myself.
