Last month a Hollywood producer was detained for several hours for
honestly answering a TSA screeners question as to his purpose for
visiting. The answer to the question: "I'm here to shoot a pilot."


There was an airline pilot who really did get into trouble. TSA wanted
to confiscate his fingernail clippers. Exasperated, he said something
to the effect that he was the pilot -- he could fly the plane into the
ground without fingernail clippers. He was charged with making a
terrorist threat. Wonder whatever became of him?
