“…knit(?) them a penis cozy.”

Most women I’ve known come pre-equipped with such a device.

Poor Doc Zoon…

Oh sure, but I get stopped with knitting needles! The worst thing I can do with those is knit them a penis cozy.

Too funny with the harp. Gotta remember to bring one on my flight in a couple weeks and, no, that's not what prompted the abuse at the 3:35 mark.

I typically travel with a harmonica in my briefcase and it often confuses the heck out of the TSA folks running the scanner.

I’m just happy it only took the toothpaste companies 8 years to make a 3oz. tube.

I frequently tell people that I’m a jackass. Not sure what that means I’m hiding.

True story. Flying back from Denver in 2002 I left my wallet in the car of a “lady friend” who had taken me to the airport and forgot to take my razors and what not out of my carry on and still somehow managed to get on the plane. To this day I’m completely amazed that I managed to get on a plane with razors and without ID. It was a younger (probably mid 20s) girl at the check in and she said “you don’t strike me as a threat to anyone”.

On a related note the really good thing for me in the year or so following 9/11 when it came to flying was I tended to get bumped up to first class by the cockpit almost every flight. They would always tell me “if you are willing to accept the responsibility we would like to move you up by the cockpit in case anyone tries to force their way in.” Kind of a nice benefit.

Maybe he called it “Washington,” because of the city code – WAS or DCA. I’ve heard people call BWI “Marshall,” but I don’t think it’ll stick either. You should’ve asked the lady if she also joined in with the “common” people booing and hissing Pres. Bush when he walked out to “Hail To The Chief.” Or if she was one of the “common” people who trashed the Mall, costing the city millions of dollars to clean it up.

That reminds me of when I had a job interview in Memphis. The manager at one point leaned back in his chair and said “I may be just a simple old country boy…” and I instantly knew he was neither: He was a shark.

People who have to point out their own characteristics are hiding something.

Yeah, we’re the ones who do what we’re told and march lock-step with orders from our masters. Hmmm, not completely lock-step, but I highly doubt President Obama meant that kind of above (and that Master). Next time I fly into DC, will have to make sure I say Reagan Airport as much as possible.
