Agent Provocateur

The LIST of things to bring to the airport if you wish the nice people with the guns and badges to entertain you for hours/days/weeks.

I'm thinking about contacting the local media and then actually carrying some of this stuff with me when I check in for my flight tomorrow afternoon. Think that the authorities detaining a veteran with a good service record returning to New York state in order to continue his quest for a teaching degree after spending the holidays with his family would make a good story?

Ask a few of the agf'ers what happened when they tried to wear their newrocks.

Lovely. I mean, I'm used to flying in goth boots - but usually to Germany, where the scene is huge and airport security are quite used to dealing with goths/grufties on a regualr basis.

The worst I get there is the request (each and every time) to take my boots off and put them through the x-ray machine. No attitude, a certain degree of understanding, and no problems (as long as I remember to wear boots that can be removed quickly and don't take an hour to put back on... :)

Eh, and try wearing all black, New Rocks, flying out of the country...and having your feet swell to enormous sizes due to early pregnancy. Yep. Not fun. Made me crankier than hell.
