Security Note of the Trip- was in Newark this morning going through security and some 70 year old (or so) guy comes up all confused to the Security Guard and says that he can't go through the metal detector because he's got a pacemaker. So they tell him to go around and have a seat. As I stand there, getting dressed and putting all my things back into their pockets, I watch as they take the 70 year old guys' jacket and put it through security. They then make him stand up, strike the Jesus Christ Pose and combed over every inch of his body with the metal detector wand.

You know, on a list of possible terrorists, 70 year old men with pacemakers do not exactly fit the profile. What do they think he's going to do, over power all the flight attendants, crew and passengers and try to hijack the plane to Miami? That in his retired state he's become so disillusioned about his meaningless existence as an Accountant at Goldfarb, Goldberg, and Goldstein that he's that he's joined Al Queda?

Man, we so crazy.
