I do recall my first airport experience after getting my unit...
Tight security....I'm nervous as a flea on a shaved dog, As I'm getting closer and closer to the security line my heart pounds harder and harder.....Can't hardly breathe cuz 'what if I set off alarms and they take me to the room full of very important looking people in blue suits', interrogations, accusing looks, oh my LORD what if they think I have a bomb!!!
By the time it's my turn to walk thru the metal scanner I look straight at the lady in charge and BLURT OUT with trembling lips as tho I'm confessing a horrible crime...
"  I HAVE A METAL IMPLANT! "
She just smiled and told me to walk on thru. No alarms, nothing.
I felt like an idiot. Found my seat on the plane, took a Xanax and all was fine.
......shoulda took the Xanax BEFORE setting foot in the airport. |
Rrae,
Oh, I love this story; you and Wingy are the Garrison Keillors of SCS.
Yesterday I went into Bank of America with my unit on, completed a long transaction then left. As I left I noted the pistol-bearing guard at the door. That was when I realized my unit was on. Oh no, I just knew he was going to stop me but he did not even look my way.Phew!
By the way, I have named my SCS "Thumper" after the rabbit in Bambi.
Peace, Mims
