1. Who would WANT to fly with all these new security regulations?
I'll take the scenic route until the TSA is chased out of our airports...

2. scenic route
from NYC to Seattle last week for the marijuana-fest must have made Randi stir crazy in the back seat of the family sedan. Probably ran out of all the car games by Pennsylvania state line!

My son is getting married in Germany in his fiance's hometown. I don't have any other way to get there. I also enjoy travelling in Europe. :)

19. If you have ever donated to DFA you are on a list of people not
ever allowed to go and see Mr. Bush speak... I was so depressed. :sarcasm: :hi:

7. How do you find out
if you are on the no-fly list? Do you need to try and board a plane or do they tell you before you purchase a ticket?

9. Of course, the no-fly list is solely for security purposes...
The TSA would never put somebody on the list purely as punishment for undesirable political views...

(Do I really need a sarcasm smiley?)

15. That link is not working on her web site
Maybe because the show is still live.

14. That's blatant harassment
She's public figure, a celebrity.

When Ron Silver is put on the no-fly list, I'll believe this was just a "clerical error".
