Everybody else thinks the following story is funny, but not me. While going through TSA security in Portland, Oregon en route to Reno, my pants fell down to my knees when they made me take my belt off. While this was taking place, all the stuff in my bag fell out because the TSA dude didn’t zip my bag after they sorted through it looking for whatever. Then I couldn’t find my boarding ticket while getting everything back together including my pants and belt back on. Luckily, I was told to go to the gate and get another boarding ticket, so didn’t have to go back through security. While all this was going on, my cell phone butt dialed Judy. She was going crazy on the other end of the phone thinking I was having a heart attack of sorts. Got another boarding ticket, then found the other one, while the agent gave me a paper towel to wipe all the sweat from my face. Fortunately, at least for the moment, no pictures or video of a 65 year old guy losing it at the airport in cyberspace. Suppose others might think this is funny too. Join the conversation… Laughing is healthy for the soul…
