Blocks of cheese with wires sticking out
NBC News obtained a TSA unclassified bulletin about possible airplane/airport dry runs by terrorists probing homeland security.
What caught my eye were the photos of some of the suspicious devices taken by airport authorities:
The report states that “individuals involved in these incidents were of varying gender.”
Oookay. Is that all they can tell us, though? Did any other traits “vary?” Shouldn’t we know a little more about the people giving shady explanations for toting around blocks of cheese with wires sticking out or taped to a cell-phone charger?
Every vigilant traveler–every once and future John Doe–should take a look at the TSA warning. And if you see something cheesy, say something. At the very least, you’ll offend a cheddar-lover. At best, you could save thousands of lives. Quite worth the risk, I think.
Speaking of John Does, it appears–take with a grain of salt–that the John Doe protection amendment will become law. But there is still no final language of the amendment.
Be on the lookout…

And speaking of dry runs, remember this?

70 year old gray hair ladies should not be checked by TSA?. Taken to its logical conclusion, somehow not checking old ladies in a wheel chair will make us more safe traveling. Someone stated that someone with half a brain can take any weapon anytime into an aircraft. Easy to post here, I dare you to try it at the checkpoint. Someone posted screeners can miss cheese in checked baggage. I don’t think so, WE see EVERYTHING that is inside and outside checked luggage. By the way, two women downed two Russian airliners, they could have been 70 year old ladies, with gray hair. Perhaps the nay sayers posting in this board have a better way to make air travel. If you do, get in touch with the airlines of DHS so that you help us.
Oh, I forgot, I work for TSA.
Have a nice flight!!

P.S. Please, forgive me any mispellings.
I propose new legislation that jails anyone in posession of a fake bomb attempting to board a plane. It’s obvious what they are up to.
I also think suspicious and provocative behavior like that of the flying imams should be scrutinized and punished as terrorism. They did, after all, terrorize a plane full of Americans.
