So yesterday I was flying home and watching Reservoir Dogs on the portable DVD player. Some where over the middle of Montana and around about the time Mr. White cuts the cops ear off. The ear bud falls out of my ear. For example:
 Problem was when it fell out, the rubber part was still in my ear...Deep in my ear.  While trying to get it out it went deeper. Now at this point a simple pair of tweezers would pulled it right out, of course you can't have any tweezers on a damn plane.  Well I thought by tugging and pulling on my ear I could get it out...Nope deeper it went. So I flew the remaining hour or so home. got my luggage, shuttled to my truck and the hour drive home. So for about 3 hours I had the rubber part hugging my brain. Diamond tweezers and some help I got it out. The whole show went in the garbage. Man I hate flying.

Regular blunt tip tweezers are not a prohibited item. I'm sure it sucked to be you though.

Tell Flying to go suck goat balls and wear something like this so you don't have to hear the response:
Koss QZ-50 Active Noise Reduction Headset with Behind-the-Neck Style Design  Bose Quiet Comfort 2 Acoustic Noise Canceling Headset

Next time wear a turban and hide the tweezers in it.

Fixed it for ya. Mr White was played by Harvey Keitel, the psycho Mr Blonde was Michael Madsen. |

Yes I too had to fly this week and would rather have been kicked in the nuts for about 2 hrs. I had a knuckleheaded TSA agent tell me that the pin on the back of my PD issued badge was a weapon and that he was going to have to confiscate it and mail it back to me AFTER he spent the time to call my dept and verify my employment. Supposedly there were some local officers that had their badges stolen. Nice and fine if the dept I work for wasn't 1100 miles from where I was located.
No more flying for me in the near future. |
