I've probably mentioned before that my wife flies all the time for work, so she encounters these machines all the time. She and I made a decision to not go through these for health reasons (she flies a lot more than I do, but I still fly a fair amount) and so we've "opted out" each time. The first time, they made it into a big loud deal "HEY! OPT OUT! OPT OUT! FEMALE AND MALE ASSIST NEEDED! WE'VE GOT AN OPT OUT!!!" and then it took a bit for the folks to show up and touch our junk. (which never happened, much to my disappointment) After that first time, it's been a lot lower key. They just pull us aside and do the pat down, and there has been another flier or two waiting with us, so it's not just us not wanting these. Oh, and my wife has observed that it's an inordinate number of women who are asked to go through these naked xray machines. Men seem to get the pass.So, my take is this: if you really aren't confortable with the x-rays, the extra pat down isn't all that invasive. I still think it's bullshit security theatre...

Officer MILF from the CDC just left. There is something going on but I am not allowed to talk about it.It sounds ridiculous, but hey, a lot of ridiculous things happen. It'll be on the news eventually I imagine.She told us a bunch of funny stories, though. Dudes getting caught with monkeys in their pants and kid porn on microfilm in their rectum and stuff like that.Also, England is completely rabies free, did not know that. Oh, and you can get meningitis from giving a strange Spaniard a blow job in a dance club on vacation, as well, did not know that. Two high school girls are in quarantine right now over there.

I am not really excited about it but I think it's unlikely I'll run into these scanners in GSP (too small) or Milwaukee but I think I am going to leave my CPAP machine at home. When we flew last summer the TSA folks thought it was my wife's and pulled her out of the line and harassed/patted her down until she told them it was mine then I just had to let them power it up and prove it was what I told them it was.
