TSA Theme Song - Amusing WSJ Article
 

Today in the online edition of the WSJ, there's an amusing article about a song a group of lawyers wrote about the flying process.

Blurb:
Randy Babbitt, president of Eclat Consulting, played a very clever rewrite of "Leaving on a Jet Plane" at a conference he helped organize last week, and sent me a copy. It's by a group of Austin, Texas, lawyers called the Bar & Grill Singers, who rewrote the lyrics written by John Denver and recorded by Peter, Paul & Mary to sum up many of the frustrations of today's travel experience:

So frisk me to check for clues.
Tell me to take off my shoes.
Touch me, ask me what you need to know.
'Cuz I'm leaving on a jet plane….

My favorite was when they go:

Read the article this morning...but missed the audio link! Good stuff.

Very funny ^

I love it! I think I'll sing it quietly next time I'm standing in line at MCI.

Someone posted a link to this song in a thread a couple of weeks ago at least. Pretty funny the the WSJ picked up on this amusing song!. :)

LOL! I love it. This should have this as background music at checkpoints.

My favorite line:

"I'm pissed and I want some booze!" :D

Maybe the TSA needs its own anthem to be used as an internal morale-building sort of thing (like the Marines, Navy, etc., have).

I think the worst of those I've ever heard was "Waffle House family." Waitresses there used to get really annoyed when you'd play that on the jukebox.
