Wanna buy a bridge?

Seriously, Superguy, read the posts here and on NewsStand and TravelBuzz. You'll get piles of real-life anecdotes for your presentation.

Don't forget the Sharp and Pointy Object search. No knitting needles, manicure scissors, corkscrews, metal nail files, knives (even blunt kitchen knives).. what am I missing, guys? Help me here! Then there was the true story of the WW 2 hero who was taking his Congressional Medal of Honor with him on a trip to West Point and the drones at "security" tried to confiscate it because it had sharp edges.

I'm a Toastmasters member and if I had this topic I'd have them rolling in the aisles or calling their Congressperson- or both.

And if you want a good laugh at the end, point out that flying naked will make it far easier for them to pass through "security".
