Default Oh me gawd! It's really gone over the top!

If it were April first, it wouldn't have taken me a millisecond to start
smiling at this but, no, it's for real (or whatever passes for real in TSA
land).

This from CNN:

"The FBI is warning police nationwide to be alert for people carrying
almanacs, cautioning that the popular reference books covering everything
from abbreviations to weather trends could be used for terrorist planning."

This from me:

All Americans are advised to wrap their heads in duct tape over a several
layers of plastic sheeting in case terrorists jump out from behind lamp
posts and hit them over the head with large reference books.

Yeah, I know. The FBI is worried about the information in the books. Do
you think they ever heard of the Internet?
