gonna be fun.

I had to go to court the other day and was actually pulled into a seperate room, didn't have to take my pants off, but they pulled the pants leg up to my knee.
I have a friend with a prosthetic leg, which consists of a simple metal pole with a plastic attachment basket and plastic foot - no place to hid anything. The last time he flew they insisted on strip-searching him. He replied "Why don't I remove the leg and you can search it and wand me?" They thought their idea was better. Twenty minutes later they finally let him go on through.
