The US-bound theater in HKG is one of the most entertaining. I wasn't paying attention on one flight back to the US. I had a coke in my hand (was drinking it) and four more 20-oz'ers in my carry on. The table jockeys were so excited about the coke in my hand (they joined ranks before calling a supervisor over), that they didn't even look inside my carry on. They did make sure I totally understood the need to throw out the one I was drinking.

At least I felt pretty secure that the stupidity wasn't contagious.

It's a shame that my fellow americans are so easily conditioned by the government.
