Inquiring minds want to know....

Might be a nice addition to National Opt-Out Day.

Though this might get the pax arrested for carrying weapons of mass destruction.

I've thought about it, but it would just be too immature for me, though I'd pay good money to see someone else do it.

It's not like filing a false report.

I know someone who can 'produce on demand'.

If you were, um, quiet about it, what could the frisker say? Especially if you made a face and acted like the frisker was the guilty party?

Of course, if you were loud and it was easily attributable to you, I suppose you could be accused of interfering with the screening process.

No way. It is not possible to contain flatulence completely.

Watch out for those egg and bean breakfast burritos, TSA!

If I could get an operation enabling me to "produce on demand", I'd get it in a second.

I don't want to admit this because 1) it's not lady-like and 2) you won't want to sit next to me on a plane anymore, but there is a lot of time I can pass wind on command.

I've discreetly done it during pat downs before.

The TSA rubs the "bottle" and out comes the "genie"

You could always pass wind and loudly ask the screener if it was them. I mean loud enough for everyone to hear you ask. Imagine the look on the screener/clerk's face?

I'll bet that most of us has blamed one of ours on the dog. :-)

West Virginia Man Charged with Assaulting an Officer

A man arrested for driving under the influence in West Virginia got himself into a lot more trouble later at the police station.

Jose Cruz was pulled over Monday night on Route 60 in South Charleston for driving with his headlights off. He was subsequently arrested after failing a series of sobriety tests, according to WSAZ TV in Charleston.

During fingerprinting, Cruz then allegedly moved closer to one of the officers and passed gas, the station reported. In the complaint, the investigating officer wrote that police noticed a "very strong" odor.

The alleged stunt led Cruz to be charged with another offense — battery on an officer — in addition to DUI and obstruction, WSAZ reported.
