Using his logic, all military personnel should be patted down and swabbed when they come into town. Why? A US serviceman was caught planning to blow up a restaurant and shoot the survivors. http://news.yahoo.com/awol-muslim-so...205502556.html Don't mention it to Mr. Frommer. He might get ideas!

I never realized he was so desolate and lonely he craved human contact so much he had to rely on the TSA for it. Thank heaven I don't pay attention to Arthur Frommer.

At the Frommers website, he wrote a passionate defense of the TSA. His stance is pretty much one of how can we forget the lessons of 9/11 and the TSA is keeping us from getting blown out of the sky.
http://www.frommers.com/community/bl...short-memories "..I thank heaven for the zealousness of the TSA. Every time I am patted down, I am grateful for security agents who take their jobs seriously. I am conscious of the fact that their zealousness is deterring all sorts of would-be terrorists from attempting to carry weapons onto planes. And I am astonished at the shortsighted lack of memory on the part of various newspaper and internet commentators who enjoy the act of ridiculing the TSA. Thank heaven we at last have a security agency that isn't affected by the profit motive. Thank heaven they are patting down even the most unlikely suspects, in the hope of deterring a terrorist from attempting to avoid their security barriers. Thank heaven we have an agency that remembers 9/11. .." |

He was great in "Eurotrip," though.
Chinatown DC: Arthur-- I loved your cameo in Eurotrip! What was it like to have your books prominently featured in a feature film--and to appear on-screen? Arthur Frommer: It was weird to see myself portrayed in Eurotrip. I was originally asked to perform the cameo myself, but then learned it would require hanging around the movie location in Rome and elsewhere for nearly three weeks to simply utter two lines. The British actor who played me is far better looking. Best--Arthur Frommer |
I love Eurotrip. It has so many terrific one-liners
* Currency colostomy bag * Mi scuzi! * You really are the worst twins ever * This is definitely where I parked my car * Mi scuzi! * Allies. Mm-hm. * We can walk from London to Berlin. - England's an island, Coop. - Okay, swim. * Mi scuzi! * Miami Wice! * Mi scuzi! * Fommer's tried to warn you, but you wouldn't listen * You made out with your sister! * Ha! Now I buy my OWN hotel! |

That was Patrick Malahide playing "Arthur Frommer."
Yeah, I know, but I had to give him credit for something, even if he doesn't deserve it...
