oliver2-44 9,689 #1 Posted October 15, 2019 Well I opened my 2 suitcases to unpack from my MJ trip and look what was hidden in my dirty laundry Even had a TSA inspection tag inside both suitcases. I bet that person just shook there head. The Southwest Airlines backage handlers had to grunt a little loading these. During my NJ travels I stopped at two old WH dealers: MJ,s Small Engine in Califon and JJ Nemes and Sons. Also gots some things at Stevebo,s Meet and Greet. I had hoped to find more goodies, but I was actually just below the free max suitcase weight 8 1 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,304 #2 Posted October 15, 2019 That’s awesome! I often pack a small tool bag that I stuff with tools that that fits in my luggage when going on business travel and TSA always opens my bag and leaves me that same note. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakota8338 115 #4 Posted October 19, 2019 My wife's sister flew home from Phoenix, for Christmas, several years ago and told her oldest son to pack his own luggage, while she packed the little one's suitcase. Naturally the 10 - 12 year old neatly packed his luggage. Yeah? He just dumped it all in and zipped the case closed, with electronics scatter throughout his bag with wires running everywhere & through everything inside the case. When his case went through the scanner the viewer yelled, BOMB! and left their station headed for the exit. When the case came out the scanner, the SIL went over to it and calmly asked if that was the case with the bomb? She was assured it was, to which she calmly unzipped the lid, opened the case and explained it was nothing but kids electronics mixed in with his clothes. But she said, "If she could not pack his luggage, it would always be inspected after he packed it in the future." And that reminds me of a time, long before TSA inspectors. In the early 70's fresh out of college and working for a major university system. We had collected some dairy milk samples which were in ice chests, packed in ice for the trip from Kansas City to LA. The department head decided to make sure no one would open the ice chests, so he wrote 'Biological Samples' with a magic marker across both sides of each container. No one bothered the chests...... but we nearly got kicked off our flight home! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
