No laughing or smiles for me; they were quite serious. No cutting either; I was pulled aside and then made to wait in a regular line. They made me wait for several minutes and glared at me when I asked to keep my wallet, etc. in sight. What gives? Maybe it was because I was one of the first through?

Their attitude makes me realize why people really dislike the TSA. As if being randomly selected makes someone a big threat and worthy of an even more arrogant attitude. What's with the stupid act of putting you in the box thingy and then taking you out a minute later?

As a side note, I wonder what the TSA does to your bags when you fly to TSA?
