DFW, the airport where Barry Switzer was once discovered with a handgun
that he'd "forgotten" in a carry-on bag. Maybe they need some new signs on
the roads leading to the airport: "Y'all search your own bags before we do,
ya hear?"

I can't imagine letting someone else pack my bags for a flight they
wouldn't be joining me on, not even my wife.

And I'm supposed to trust this doofus with my life on a flight? I wonder
what other parts of his life he blindly trusts to others? "Trust me, it's a
virgin Margarita." "Headache, dear? Here, just take these two little pills,
they're, um, they're just Tylenol, yeah, that's it." This is kind of like
sex: not only do I have to trust the pilots and air marshals, I have to
trust everyone any of the pilots and air marshals trust, and anyone those
people trust, and....

PS - and don't even get me started on the subject line.... "suspected" of
having a gun in his bag? Either he did, or he didn't. Is this in dispute?
