Well, in my opinion liquids is where its at. You can't beat liquids. They are the ultimate weapon in distracting TSO's and allowing stuff you really should not be taking on board an aircraft from passing through the checkpoint.

So, pass about seven quart sized baggies through the x-ray, each containing one or two legal sized liquids. One or two should hold empty legal sized liquid containers. When asked if "all these bags are yours", state that you personally take aviation security very seriously and that this is one way to make sure liquids that could interact with one another are stored safely. Just for good measure, insist that they swab and analyze a sample of each of your liquids. If they refuse, ask for their supervisor and complain that they are not taking their jobs seriously and that your old man fought in World War who a toss, and he didn't fight Jerry to watch these slackers make a joke of airport security. When they are done, pull out an unopened plastic bottle of a soft drink from your pant pocket and ask for it to be swabbed too.
