Holy crap, I'm all over that! Can we use that JPEG on Cafepress?

One change...can we make the billy club in his hand a metal detecting hand wand?

That will be my travel UNIFORM if we can get that on a T-shirt. I'd also put it on the back, and put www.flyertalk.com underneath.

You are one gifted artist!!!

Again, ask and you shall receive!

I added the metal detecting hand wand for you, and I also made a back! I'll post the links to those two new images, as well as the original first one to see which one people like best.

I'm still stuck on the 'many people left 6-figure salaries to work for the TSA'.

If you can identify a single one, I'll eat my left hand for lunch.

Didn't you see the thread on the armed TSA agent jewelry store theft?

I'm sure many did, a part-timer at one of the Saugus Dunkin' Donuts makes six figures a year - $8976.45

Why it takes time and temperature control to create liquid explosives 101 by Dr. Spiff.

You're certainly not using that degree if you think liquid explosives can be created by dumping two chemicals together.


Spiff my man! There are several commercially available binary explosives on the market that can be mixed together without any environmental controls. Plus I can think of two that are home made that you can do that with.

I can think of some things too that can be bought easily and be mixed to make a fireball. They're already on the prohibited items list though. And like every one of those other things, there are noxious fumes that result from it that would tip everyone off to what's going on.

And at least one of them requires a HIGH POWER RIFLE ROUND to detinate. Not fire. Not shampoo. Not an iPod.
