back at last

Naturally, the ban on carry-on luggage was lifted the day AFTER I returned from Poland. We were allowed to carry on only wallets, passports, airline tickets/boarding passes, and prescription medication in original containers. No books or newspapers, no drinks or food, no personal items like chapstick.

I was able to carry on, undetected, some Advil and Tagamet. I would have been willing to toss them if need be, but I just wanted to test the system a little bit. An older woman carrying cough drops put up quite an argument until the army guy basically told her to hush up and carry them on, as if he were doing her a big personal favor.

It's all a big show. They wanded the women and patted down the men, but what would they have detected? Metal? We'd already been through the metal detectors. Meanwhile, the terrorists are thinking of the next clever trick.

Yeah, last time I travelled they weren't allowing liquids on because there had been some plot to use liquid explosives.
