Ok at risk of getting slapped with ye olde wet cod.....

This type of incident/scare/diversion procedure is happening almost daily,
to the point of it becoming normal.

Stepping up with ye olde wet cod

Yes Pete - apparently some idiot child in Houston tried to smuggle in a
half stick of dynamite in his checked bags from Buenos Aires - the salient point is that the security system in BA failed miserably and the dynamite got to Houston where it was picked up by a gelatine crazed bassett hound in Houstons customs hall --- As a member of the great unwashed Im getting a little weary of the medias sensationalism - the American Flight
sounds a bit like Dr Crippen 2006 and the half stick of dynamite was an
attempt by a college student trying to make TSA and the HLS look like fools - not sure what we should do - the media seems to think the industry should close down and go back to large four funneled turbine steamships for crossing the Atlantic --mind the icebergs
