    Default Solution for Body Scanners

    This is sweet. I am reposting this from a friend on FB:

    Solution to body scanners at airports: develop a booth that you can step into that will NOT X-ray you, but WILL detonate any explosive device hidden on or in your body.The explosion will be contained within the sealed booth. People in the airport terminal hear a muffled explosion. An announcement comes over the PA system, "Attention Standby passengers, we now have a seat available on flight number..."

    Too funny. Especially the extra seat becomes available. (Oh, I sounded too cruel!)
    Thank you for the giggle.

    P.S. Any charge for that available seat? (just kidding)
