Back when I was a moody teenager I took a cheap flight that involved changing planes and having to go through security again. My bags were pre-checked so, when I set off the metal detector, I honestly said to the security guy that I had no idea what had set it off.
Until, that is, he searched me and found the metal knife and fork stamped "KLM" I'd nicked off the previous flight.

I was flying back from a rather fantastic holiday Costa Rica and had to change in Dallas. As Mrs Tugnut and I went through customs I laughed as I saw one of the guards with his German Shepard tearing at the leash and pulling the poor fellow around the desk. A few seconds later I was on the ground, arms behind my back and being dragged into an 'interviewing' room. It was then that I realised I had forgot to remove the half ounce of highly pungent skunk from inside of my Tilley Hat.
God - did we ever laugh about that one.
