And P-C thought that he had it bad:
CHICAGO - Cook County prosecutors say a 29-year-old man traveling with his mother desperately didn't want her to know he'd packed a sexual aid for their trip to Turkey. So he told security it was a bomb, officials said.
Madin Azad Amin was stopped by officials on Aug. 16 after guards found an object in his baggage that resembled a grenade, prosecutors said.
When officers asked him to identify it, Amin said it was a bomb, said
He later told officials he'd lied about the item because his mother was nearby and he didn't want her to hear that it was part of a penis pump, Scaduto said.
He's been charged with felony disorderly conduct, said Andrew Conklin, a spokesman with the Cook County state's attorney's office.
Amin faces up to three years in prison if convicted.
Sara peels all of the wrappers off her crayons. I won't let her anywhere near a marker of any kind. One of her cutest pairs of pajamas has permanent black Sharpie all over them -- she found one stray marker in her brother's room and went to town.
The contract for my new book arrived this morning! That's a nice start to the day.
Vortex - OMG. Yes, a bomb is much better than a penis pump.
He'd rather bang on the keyboard of my computer.
Yup. Em's the same way. Joe brought her into my work a couple of weeks ago, I sat her down at the typewriter and she had a blast. She sat up very straight and put her fingers on almost the right keys and started typing away.It was hysterical.
Suzi, we bought the markers specifically for the F2F. If only I had known what her opinion would be.
I have to go to the Cambridge apartment tonight to take care of a bunch of stuff. I'm scared. I'm expecting to find everything stacked in the middle of the rooms, because the landlord has been painting. Ugh. So dreading these next few days as I finish stuff up.
Edit: won't you all be glad when this is all done so I stop bitching about it?
Good luck, vw.
I'm off to my hair appointment with a new hairdresser. Hopefully the color comes out the way I want it to.
I'm so sad. I'm expecting packages, so I keep checking for the mail to be here. WHY ISN'T IT HERE YET???
I'm set up in the bedroom with my laptop today. It's weirding the cats out. The strange men with buzz saws aren't here yet.
Fifty? I'll stul if I have to. Slut. Whatever.
