TSA Humor

Today, flying out of MCO the gate across from me was an Eagle flight to Nassau. The grand total of passengers were 2. Over an hour before flight 3 TSA agents show and sit in their "area". 15 minutes prior to departure the GA calls for boarding. The first guy gets directed to the TSA'a for his grope. The other guy heads to the GA who collects his boarding pass, you can almost see the smile on his face before the GA declares - your the last to board so you must be screened please wait for them to finish the first one! Now I laugh out loud. There are three crew on that plane - they must have felt really safe :0

Meanwhile back at my gate for DFW the first victim is the proverbial 80 year old with a walker. Except she wasn't proverbial!

I have been paying more attention to the TSA going ons as I am still in shock that at my home airport MKE, they have 11 agents at a minimum for ONE security checkpoint! My tax dollars at work!

As I connected at ORD, I noticed that it finally switched over to TSA and the lines were HUGE this past Wed. - my sympathies to all that got caught.

On a positive note the TSA staff is generally much more pleasant and I can understand their English.
