I know, right? Knitting needles I can understand wanting to travel with, but in what universe are they less potentially dangerous than YOGURT???

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And how is KY "essential"???

I mean, I know why people take it places, but "essential"???

Depends on how long the yogurt has gone unrefrigerated, i'd say...

and there should be more women.

Isn't the ratio something like 107 men to every 100 women? It's not the huge comic book store-esque mismatch that popular entertainment seems to think.

What if you have a prescription for yoghurt, for thrush? Can you take it on then? And eat it, if you want a snack?

When we went to England (the day after the bombing plot bust up) I had forgotten that my keychain with my little Swiss Army knife was attached to it and in my purse. The xray guys didn't say anything, and the cute National Guard guy missed it. Of course, they did find the lipstick that I thought I'd lost in one of the plethora of pockets in my travel purse.

On-topic, via BoingBoing -- Veritas Airlines, where the pre-flight announcements tell you the bald truth:

Your life-jacket can be found under your seat, but please do not remove it now. In fact, do not bother to look for it at all. In the event of a landing on water, an unprecedented miracle will have occurred, because in the history of aviation the number of wide-bodied aircraft that have made successful landings on water is zero. This aircraft is equipped with inflatable slides that detach to form life rafts, not that it makes any difference. Please remove high-heeled shoes before using the slides. We might as well add that space helmets and anti-gravity belts should also be removed, since even to mention the use of the slides as rafts is to enter the realm of science fiction.

They will let you keep your chapstick, so long as it is a solid stick type. No need to have the chapped lips upon arrival.

I suppose if you had a prescription for yoghurt, you could take up to 4 oz.

(TSA wouldn't let my DH's PB&J on board last weekend.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was going to say, I was pretty sure chapstick was OK.

And I'm (sadly) not going to Vegas, just Worcester. Where I won't even have a chance to see Buffistas, since I'm sure I'll be attached to my boss the whole weekend.

My aunt had her lipstick confiscated when she flew last week -- it's not explicitly on the official list of items, but some agents aren't allowing it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yeah, I was unclear. I am also travelling this weekend - and I am going to Vegas with Lee & Emily. Hence the needing of the makeup and lotion and sundry. I gave up & decided to check luggage, so I'll be the mule for them.
