They stared that whole liquid thing the week before I took my first flight in months. I'm not set to fly anytime soon, giving them plenty of room to freak out about something else - like PANTS. Figures.
Though, since I'd be flying outta a college town, I suppose TSA confiscating pants might not be that bad, considering the 60:40 Female:Male ratio at my college...
Anyway, shockwave.com has some game that surrounds the whole seemingly arbitrary assignment of what's forbidden on flights these days.

Oh, THAT'S what it's about. I had it totally out of context and was like "Wha?"
They should totally try to blow up a plane with fifty cent.

Last weekend, I flew to Los Angeles and I brought deodorent and crap. First time, I got through, no problem. On the way back, because I had some metal in my bag, it was searched and they confiscated the deodorant. I asked them if they could just test it to verify that it wasn't nitroglycerin or something and they said that they could not.
Anyways, my point is, this policy is absolutely ridiculous because suppose a terrorist does have an explosive substance. He can just put it in a water bottle or deodorant stick or whatever and most likely, he will get through. However, even if he does not make it through, there is no deterrent, because he can just try again the next day. There is no penalty for being caught with potential liquid explosives.

God dammit thats Stupid.
One of my Friends went to Egypt. they came back with Lemon and herb Tea. They had it confiscated. then they were Told that it could have Hebasideds that might case the Plant Industry in New Zealand major havoc if there was. so they tore up all the tea Bags, Checked f there were any thing that could cause harm, and then once they were satisfied they gave them back the eviscerated tea Bags and the box. I am not Bullshitting.
they were like, oh yea... WTF? How about some tea, maybe some of our Freshly Ripped apart Tea? So much for a Cup of Tea when We get home.
The only place a terrorist would hide a weapon of mass Destruction would be up his... ... Because no on would check there.
