You are kidding, right? This is just about the funniest thing ever, and it actually happened.

I can now see TSA/DHS having this room in the airport that they take the passenger too where a machine squeezes all the water out of the passenger. Problem solved.

Except in fairness to the TSA, this happened at LGW. Last time I checked, they don't employ the TSA

I vote for 'Pasta is a Liquid' ... Someone should make a Broadway Musical with that name. It's brilliant... Or rather proof of epic moronisity (new word -you heard it here first!)
