This friend of mine went to Vegas with some people last week. This is what he told me. He got picked on the way out of Houston to be "body" searched. And they searched him. They patted him down every where( I mean everywhere) and they untucked his shirt and looked at his back. Then they seached his shoes. They also searched his checked baggage through out. I mean looking through each sock and everything. They did this all in front of other people in the airport. He said it was very embarrassing.
I understand there has got to be some strict policies in place now. But not only did he get searched going there he got nailed again coming home. I asked him if he had towel in his head?
Anyway be careful and don't carry gear. Can you imagine how much that would have sucked if he had some a couple a vials of test on him.?
One more thing he told me. He said along with the questions about "did anybody else touch your bags beside yourself ya da ya da ya da . The last question they asked was "would you defend the plane in case it was attacked?" I would have said yes and you don't have to worry about him (terrorist) getting off with a scummy lawyer either.
Wild huh?
