OH NOES SCISSORS!!!1!~

The good news is: the TSA is poised to allow us our fingernail scissors and tailors' snips on planes again, starting Dec. 22.

The bad news is: some Congressional shitheads are threatening legislation to ban all pointy things forever.

MA people: bitch out Rep. Markey, preferably with a 2x4, as he seems to be the asshat in chief.
NY people: bitch out Rep. Crowley.
TX people, if we have any: bitch out Sen. Hutchison.

Run, don't walk, with your scissors to the plane, before it's too late. :-)

Running With Scissors is the best band name ever.

Also, Charlie Don't Surf is the true best band name ever. For reasons I have discussed with you one time while walking to work, I think. :)

It's a good album name, yes, but a better band name (http://www.ubl.com/artists/runningwithscissors).

And yes, I remember that--chiefly because you didn't know the actual origin of the name (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse_Now). :D

Marna got away with bamboo needles for knitting on today's flight to Ireland just by putting them in her carry-on bag.
