# inexplicably
i've been stopped for an ancient and terribly blunt pair of scissors i forgot i had in my bag once.
but i've never been stopped for the 8 million computer wires i routinely take through, although they look a whole heck of a lot more like part of a bomb.

# the classic is to be stopped for a nail file

# really?
can't buy 'em on any of the airlines i've been on....

they even do things like none of the restaurants in the airport can have knives anymore, not even plastic ones, so if you get a bagel with creamcheese you have to spread it with a spoon.

# not to worry
just take the gun from the pilot

# Someone or other whose blog I read
made a hobby of taking away the (flimsy, blunt) knives he got with his airline meals and then getting them confiscated by the next check-in guard.

worthy of all.
that sounds like fun, but sadly none of the airlines i fly have knives of any sort anymore :(
