Airport Stories
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.

Its a Bomb!!
I once spent 3 hours in an interview room in Singapore airport after our connection from Hanoi stopped for fuel.
Some future humorist had drawn a big pic of a bomb in the lad's toliets, and when this was annouced to the passengers as the reason for the lengthy delay, I had the temerity to laugh loudly .
I found it slightly less funny when a small south-east asian man wearing smooth, silky nylon gloves saw fit to poke my jacksie with one (or maybe two) fingers. But then again, you've got to laugh....
