Frequent Fliers Make the Onion

This is incredibly off-topic. Moderators feel free to move this.

BUT, it's seemed rather tense on many of the boards lately, and I thought we could all use a good laugh.

Here is another good Onion piece, relevant to the frequent flyer, which describes a major improvement in airport security:

It is wonderful for you both to share something off topic so the moderator, who also has a life, can clean up after you dropings.

Sounds like somebody we know and love.

Tallia, dream7, thanks for the links. Never heard of the onion b4. Sometimes an off topic beats a lot of the on topic stuff, which this did.

ranles, what the heck is your prob? Someone sticks their neck out to share something and you all of a sudden are the voice of the moderator? Please find a better way to criticize...
