Your father should remove his pacemaker and put it in a baggie for the nice TSA people.

After all, this fight against terrorism is serious business and how is TSA to know your father is not an al qaeda agent with an implanted bomb?

My friend Frank has a metal plate in his leg and tells me he feels cheated if he is not patted down. We are a little worried about Frank!
