Well I don't think you need to start shopping for the best air fares quite yet. ![]() And for the record, I'd like to point out that the poll is now 15-14 in favor of my position (remember ny's errant "yes" vote). |

A little boy went to a teacher and told her that he'd found a dead cat. She asked how he knew it was dead. He replied, "I pissed in his ear and he didn't move." The teacher exclaimed, "You WHAT???" The boy said, "Yeah... I leaned down and said, 'Pssst!' in his ear and he didn't move."

There's a much more broadly based security initiative underway in Europe that includes monitoring of passengers' onboard behavior and auto-pilot control of planes to prevent diversions/hijackings. Is any intrusion on privacy too much where safety and security is concerned? Read here for more details and tell us what you think: Security of Aircraft in the Future European Environment Big Al |

I don't care if they see my privates. I'm more concerned if they can see my sergeants! Yes, yes... I know.... I'm going....

It doesnt really bother me but I could imagine those who would be upset. I have a simple solution. Just have two lines. Muslims go through that xray machine and everyone else does the regular ones. (Is that bad) I can just feel the anger in the ACLU members!! |

Based on your avatar, I thought you'd say something like... "It's really quite simple, you people form a line right here, and you people form a line right here, and you other people form a line right here - FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!"

Has anybody developed a reliable test for Mohammedism on which to determine who goes in which line? |

Not sure but given sufficient R&D funding, I'm sure that Larry and a few of us here could develop one pretty fast. |

I don't need any research money. I already know how to keep them in line..... 1. Upholster all airliners in pigskin. On the walls, on the ceiling, on the seats, everywhere. Just cocoon them in pigskin. 2. All airliner meals will be the same - bacon lettuce and tomato sandwiches and beer. For those who don't like bacon, ham sandwiches may be offered as a substitute. 3. Everyone will be given a cute little teddy bear as they board the plane, made of course, out of pigskin. 4. Soak a Koran in pigs blood and staple it upside down over the entrance to the plane. (That one can be optional).... You'll completely eliminate the muslim line, and the rest of us can go back to being normal people just trying to get from point A to point B. Personally, I think we should load them all up and send them back to where they came from. |

If you offer kosher meals then Jews could get on board as well. |
