TSA liquid ban turns 2. Can you sum up your thoughts in 6 words?
With the 2nd anniversary of the TSA liquid ban coming up on Aug. 10, a little fun is in order. Afterall, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. There’s cool little contest going on over at the Cranky Flier blog that’s asking travelers to sum up their thoughts or experiences with the restrictions. The catch? You have to do it in exactly six words.

With so many frequent travelers on this forum, I thought it’d be fun to do the same thing here. Or head on over to http://crankyflier.com/ if you want to try to win an iPod

Here’s mine: “Bottle broke. Wine leaked. Clothes ruined.”

What's yours?

3oz, one bag, no big deal.

Don't like it, then don't fly.

I left san francisco yesterday. I had a back pack with a bottle of water right in sight in the outside pocket it went through the detector and nothing was even said. So much for security. It didn't make me feel very secure.

These are funny ... and addictive. Here’s another one:

Didn't threat happened in England?
Idiots!

There - that's six.


To keep-the-sheep-scared ban!

Another six.

I got a whole lot more "sixers".

By the way, we came back from Israel a few month ago - no taking off shoes, no liquid bans, no rude officials - but a hell of a lot more secure.
