...in an episode from what Sharkey calls his list of "TSA Follies," he tells of a uniformed pilot who had to wait 10 minutes at security while screeners poured over each item in his carry-on luggage. What took so long for security to clear the pilot? "They told me they had to make sure I wasn't carrying anything that would allow me to take over an airplane," the pilot told Sharkey.

At Meigs, I had to remove my Leatherman in fear it would be taken from me.
