Let us consider one day in the next month (that we can all mutually agree upon), to fly with cupcakes inside bottles. Bob mentions on his blog that such items are dangerous and will be confiscated (oops... surrendered) at the security check-point. At the end of the day or shift, I would consider this Occupy movement a success if there is a huge pile of cupcakes in bottles at check-points in major airports. If cupcakes-in-bottles are as dangerous as Bob makes them out to be, would the TSA summon the local bomb squad for appropriate disposal?

I know the Occupy with Cupcakes might sound silly, but let the rest of the civilized world understand where we in the US (unfortunately) stand on serious matters of civil aviation security. If the TSA seriously wishes to enforce the cupcake-in-a-bottle ban, then let's have some fun along the way.
How about a couple of Moon Pies in a Mason Jar? (I am from Nashville, after all.)
