Easy enough to stand off to the side and look over their shoulder.
Believe me, I've tried, but the baggage roller thing is so long that you'd need to walk yards at LAX and then back around to see the screens.
Now, if I could travel with someone else in a separate line, maybe we could time it so...but I never fly with other people.
Well, when I was in my angry atheist stage in college, I was part of an atheist group that did stuff you could call "evangelising." Nothing as wacky as this, though.
Yeah, I skipped the angry atheist stage. Grew up Methodist. It's just tough to work up a head of steam over nice northeastern liberal Methodists, you know?
At Schipol in Amsterdam, they opened my bag and went through it carefully and then x-rayed it and then sat down an interviewed me. They were doing that with everyone, but they were such cute, polite, earnest Dutch fellows that I found it adorable rather than irritating.
Hi. Beautiful morning today in the Bay Area after a messy, sloppy and wet early evening.
Maybe so, Robin.
Mom says she looks subversive too.
I realised after I got home that I'd left my dissection kit in my carry-on bag last time I flew home. Didn't even get a look.
My mother was bringing something like this [link] to us as a gift for mr. flea and they made her unwrap the present, open the box and play with it to prove it wasn't harmful. At a table far away from the other people.
I have also had security people unwrap a jar of honey I was carrying it and shine a flashlight into it to make sure nothing was lurking. And this was in Greece!
I find the inconsistency to be the most annoying thing, myself. That and the struggle with coats and shoes and a stroller and carry-ons and a child who is now capable of escaping if she chooses.
Anyone know how to do a reverse phone number lookup on Google? (there's a special command/switch you use with the phone number).
eta: Oh, you just have to enter it in phone-number format - eg: (312) 555-1212.
If you don't figure it out, you can do a reverse lookup on anywho.com.
I googled and figured it out (see edit). But thanks.
