Drabble by Kevin Fagan for July 21, 2019

Ralph, but did you have to embarrass the family?

That’s akin to what I do when travelling. I have a multipocketed vest that holds most of the items TSA likes to fret about, and I just put the vest into a tray.

Say, didn’t Ralph get a job as a TSA officer?

Nice try, Ralph. I was busted for carrying a large tube of toothpaste I forgot to unpack.

At least he didn’t take anything else off.

You don’t have to have your shoes off any more?

So, where’s Penny? Did she not want to go, so they left her with a sitter? Or is she just the other side of Norman?

seeing the look on the Mrs. face…

last time i flew I forgot to take belt off, and no one said anything

I put everything from my pockets in a gallon zip log bag and put it in the tray at the gate. I sort it out after inspection.

That’s just funny!!! Nicely done, Kevin Fagan!

Pretty ironic Norman uses a smartphone.

Fagan is reaching out — this does not look like Dodger Stadium at all. (Maybe Anaheim thou…)

The other side of those shorts better not be blue with white stars.

YYYEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

now I know what to do next time!! – two years ago I knew I had to go through a security check point that day so I made sure that I wore NO medal. My driver’s license and a credit card were all I took in my pocket – nothing else. as I walked through the detector – no buzz – no alarm I proceded to move forward when a guard tapped me on the shoulder and said "sir, would you step over here please, you’ve been randomly chosen for an extra security check. I thought he was kidding, he WAS NOT. I was wanded, had to answer a dozen questions. To this day nobody can tell me why, what or how come they would do that but they did. My wife says that I just look guilty LOL

Reminds me of a Wolverine comic – Logan is walking through the airport in his shorts saying something like “I told ‘em there’s nothing in my clothes, but would they listen?”
