I cannot match the nipple ring story although I have no sympathy for
the dumb bitch who was searched due to them. She either knew better
or was simply stupid.

Nobody has mentioned the final "solution" to the nipple ring caper.

Nipple rings are now permitted, but are subject to visual inspection.

(No joke)

You know what bothers me about this whole TSA thing? You can't find
anybody who speaks unaccented English.

I applied for my TWIC card this weekend and there was a hangup with
the registration - apparently, the computer doesn't update immediately
- takes 24 hours.

I didn't know that, so when I couldn't log in to set up the
appointment, I couldn't log in. Called the help line. Three times
because I couldn't get an operator who spoke unaccented English - if I
spoke Spanish or Pakastani or whatever I could do it. I have trouble
understanding heavily accented English.

I have heard at the Providence TSA office where they process the TWIC
requests, there isn't a native English speaker in the building.

Something gotta be wrong with that.
