msp..."random passenger check at gate" (what a joke) I always wait until someone is picked and then breeze right through (at msp they do random checks...unlike lax where they seem to have a list of who they are going to search)...anyway on sunday the person picked was, what appeared to be an 80 year old woman (she might have only been 75)...she had an american flag pin on her sweater and she walked VERY slowly...Her getting picked sure made me feel more secure on the plane...ha...
