Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
ita - that is good news.
I've been hanging out in front of the computer most of the afternoon - knitting and browsing. And my gray cat Ivan has been spending much of that time napping in between the keyboard and the monitor. He chats in his sleep. So, I have one cat that snores and another that talks. Of course, now he is sitting up right in front of me, preventing me from seeing what I am typing.
I'm at the DMV at 4 pm on a Friday. Thois can't end wel.
Wait. Does toothpaste count as a liquid?
Well, the basic rule is no liquids, gels, or aerosols. But if you read the fine print by category on the TSA website, there's a whole bunch of things that also qualify for the < 3oz. rule.
The liquid rule is so stupid. I always sneak lighters, but I found out that on my way to New Orleans I accidentally snuck an 8 oz bottle of perfume (Prada, so I'd have been hella pissed if I had to throw it away) through in my laptop bag.
Stay well~ma for you, ita.
Oh wow Cash I'm so sorry to hear that. One of those "couldn't wait until 9:30am on Saturday" things?
Lighters are ok now. Not that it stopped me when they weren't.
The liquid rule is so stupid.
Totally. Especially since enforcement is completely random depending on the airport.
I had a number of stocking stuffers that I "shouldn't" have had, but no way was I going to check my luggage just for that. And it must have been obvious on the xray machine that I had jars in my bags. But no one said anything.
I suppose "liquid mascara" means DiorShow, huh? And I bet gel or liquid eye liner will have to be put in the stupid quart bag.
Any kind of liquidy or gel make up has to go in the quart bag.
Toothpaste, lipgloss, mascara, etc.
The rules do suck, but the TSA person enforcing it doesn't have a choice. It's their job and they can get in serious trouble (or even lose their job) if they don't.
Also remember if you do try to sneak something through that is over the limit and get caught it will be thrown out if your baggage has already been checked. So make sure you are willing to risk throwing out something.

grrrr. Well, it's a good thing I was planning on going to the wacky Japanese dollar store tomorrow so I could stock up on small plastic containers. Do all the containers have to be 3oz. exactly, or can they be smaller than that?
