Airline Security
Tonight, I am taking a red-eye to see my brother in a different state. Because I have some expensive wine to bring to him, I decided to check with the Transportation Security Administration to see which items are still prohibited in carry-on luggage. It turns out that if I were to have orthopedic gel inserts for my shoes, I would have to put them in checked luggage. Yet, I can still carry a lighter onto a plane.
No Jello-Pudding cups, but I can bring fire.
On the upside, on the "permitted" list are: gel-filled bras, corkscrews, and toy transformer robots. Now that sounds like quite a party!

Thanks for providing the news I can use! I just got off a plane, and I was seriously wondering what they were doing about gel-filled bras. Well, if I were a terrorist, that's where I'd be stashing the explosives, fer sure.
Hmm... They allow weird things on planes. I've never had my knitting needles taken from me, even though I could do some damage with those if I really wanted to. But they took away my little tiny scissors that I use to cut thread with. :-/
