Staying awake is hard and I would prefer not to.

Timelies all!
Happy birthday Sox!
Good luck, Scrappy!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Hmmm...
Dear Thomas Scola,We want to make sure you are aware of new TSA security screening procedures that will impact your future flight.
The following items must be removed from carry-on bags and placed into separate bins for X-ray screening:
- Electronics larger than a cell phone
- Liquids – please note that the 3-1-1 rule still applies
- Food and snacks, including any type of food or drink in powdered form
So I take it that a canister of lose tea counts, right?
How much do you want to bet that my mechanical film cameras are going to get flagged, even though they don't contain any electronics?

What? Why no food or snacks?

Depending on the airport, I've been asked to take any food out of my bag and put it in a bin. It hasn't been consistent, though.
Also, hi everyone. I've been working for 12 hours and I would very much like to stop now.

TSA agents don't have access to affordable vending machines on the job? Damned if I know...

Thrive to spite them
Supposedly food has been looking like something suspicious on xrays and so now they want to take it out of the bags. At least that is the justification.
I will say when I worked at the Tallahassee Airport we were evacuated and flights delayed because of a "suspicious" bag. It turned out to be a whole cured ham next to something else that made it look like a possible bomb.

Update: I've been working for 13 hours and I would like to stop anytime now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
13 is so much worse than 12, too. Like you're into a whole new measurement system.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy birthday, Sox!
Job ~ma, Scrappy!
Go get 'em, ltc!
shrift, I hope you're not still working!
The TSA sucks.
My repaired laptop is finally back in my hands! It's been a week without it. I was strangely glad to get back to work today.
