Careful "fun" may necessitate high powered explosives and very small bits in great quantities flying every which way. I had a couple friends like that. Good times. :rolleyes:

Hahah! Different strokes for different folks I’d say.

A couple of years ago a buddy and I were flying together. Needless to say my buddy doesn't get into any kind of hurry, so we are going through security pretty close to our flight time. My bag goes through the x-ray machine and I am informed that I need to step to the side. The TSA asks if there is anything pointy or stabby in my bag that he should be aware of. I assure him that there is not (I often have a knife in the side pocket of my bag, but had cleaned it out prior to the flight). He opens up the bag and pulls out my Darrel Ralph Trigger Maze (apparently I need to work on my cleaning skills). I just say, "I assume you keep that"?!? He says that I can go back out of security to the USPS kiosk and mail it to myself.
Since it is close to our flight time and I will have to go back through security, I hustle, and find the kiosk...butt there are no envelopes!!!! Not knowing what to do and needing to catch my flight, I go to the guy working at the Newsstand and ask him if he wants the knife instead of me throwing it away (I know stupid, but desperate to make my flight). He said he couldn't take it. I'm thinking that I am going to have to throw the knife away, when I see a bunch of t-shirts stacked up. I decide to stash the knife between the t-shirts and head back through security. I just get through security and am putting on my shoes when they announce the final boarding for my flight. I run through the airport and just make the flight.
Three days later I make it back to the airport, check the t-shirts and I can't believe it but the knife is still there. I am relieved and feel obligated to buy a $4 soda from the Newsstand for the safe storage of the knife.

I feel as if a lot of people attempt this and actually pull this off. I don’t think I’d be able to sleep at night knowing my knife was sitting say under a potted plant in the airport 256 miles away!

Just shows what an uncivilized / barbaric existence the modern Gentleman is forced to endure. Wy I remember back in "The Good Old Days" in about any bus station, my former means of conveyance, I could put in some coin, open a locker and place my said excess baggage in safe keeping. But now . . . awe it is a mean and disappointing, inhospitable world.

(good one on the T-shirt story though)
(Oh and the magazine guy needs a dope slap. Didn't want your Darrel Ralph Trigger Maze ? Seriously.)
 
That time I was showing a friend how well a knife was retained by it's sheath? At least I only stabbed my hand and not my leg too on the way down.

I keep waiting for my wife to mention the multiplying knives... but after 20+ years she knows I have my toys, she has hers. Mine are just better :D
 
This not being Whine and Cheese, we are obviously done here.
Closed.
