I think that "SILLY OR NECESSARY" is a good summary of the Hanle y experience, generally.

Necessary in Hanle y's case, of course! As for these scissors -- I think it of it this way, if it takes are boxcutters...

Probably some dude was like "pfu! Crimminy! I can't take THESE on board! I'll just chuck em." Then some janitor who likes to sniff used tampons discovered it and wanted to get famous.

Last week at the New Orleans airport ("Louis Armstrong Internation Airport" it was recently renamed, further turning this city into a damn theme park) someone found a package in a restroom wrapped in newspapers bearing "TERROR WARNING"-type headlines--the airport was shut down and the bomb squad was brought in. The dogs reacted strongly to the package and the whole bomb-defusing thang went down, but when it was blasted with water it was revealed that the package contained a container of gumbo. I dunno if I should feel, like, grateful that travellers' safety is taken so seriously (nope) or kind of incredulous that they have SUCH CRAPPY DOGS.

gumbo = smells delicious => dogs = only human?

Pardon moi, for bringing a flash dash of sanity to the room;>

It must be a damn slow news day, if CNN considers this worth talking about. My next flight out, what do I do? Wear a robe to the airport to keep airport security from frisking me?

Sadly, our tax dollars pay for the guns and sniffer dogs used to raid that bathroom.
