44. I'm sure they can

Jan 2013

but I assume I'm pretty low on their priority list.

On the other hand, every time I fly back from the Pacific Northwest with all kinds of great NW wines and beers in my check-in luggage, the majority of my bags get the "we looked through your bag and found dirty underwear" cards in them. I guess I attribute that to their Barney Fife intelligence, and after six years of living in NY, they have not quite figured out that I am an honest citizen who just likes to bring back top-quality beverages from a prime region for them!

Maybe someday they'll catch a real terrorist.
