Apparently, there was some terrorists who were thwarted in the UK who
planned to mix some Gatorade with some sort of gel and then detonate it
via an MP3 player. How insane is that? Mostly, I just marvel at how
they are able to do that. That’s 100% pure Macgyver. But like Evil
Macgyver. If you saw this too, would you even believe it? As a result,
they are banning mp3 players and you’re not allowed to carry anything on
unless it’s in a clear plastic bag. For seven hours. No tunes, no
books, no magazines. For seven hours. That’s brutal. But at least
there’s the inflight movies. I remember when I went to London once they
showed Tommy Boy. I was sitting next to a really rather posh yet staid
English businessman type. At one point, he nudged me and had me take
off my earphones and said, “It’s quite good, isn’t it?” I agreed. FYI,
I’m geekily sending this post via email. Let’s see if it works….
EDIT: Ok, well, it worked but then it also had the stupid privacy statement at the end from my email. So maybe I won’t be doing this from LB.
Posting blogs via email = mcgyver! were you drinking gator aid while you did it?
