TSA actually stands for Thugs Standing Around. There's now supposed to be an exemption for folks over 75 w/r taking off the shoes to go through security. Whee. Big step in the right direction.

The TSA isn't diabolical, they're not smart enough.

Never had much problem going through security, except for the time my wife tried to bring back a can of coconut soda in her carry-on from Tobago. That got them all excited for a few seconds, but when they saw what it was they just let us go.
Once I got onto a shuttle intending to get to my car in long-term parking and the driver says "I can drop you off, sir." He then made a U-turn, headed away from the lot, and went to the TSA office entrance, waving for me to get off. I was obviously confused, then he pointed to the Under Armor logo on my shirt collar and said "TSA, right?" I said "Uh, no..." and he apologized and took me to my car.
So I guess a lot of TSA guys wear Under Armor.

For what? They stand around in an air conditioned terminal all day.
The wife has a titanium reinforced femur from a riding accident. On Xrays it looks vaguely pistol shaped. She thought that was going to be the problem, but Noooooooooo!!!!
The screws just above her knee had sharp points. That got them all excited.
