Wow... I guess I should thank my lucky stars I haven't wound up on the no-fly-list somehow. Of course, we might both be on it for our next flights for talking about it here

The funniest part was when we discovered she was on it. It was 5:00am, we were on our way somewhere and had our 6 month old daughter with us. My wife is a very "normal" looking girl. Blonde, blue eyes, long hair, no tattoos or anything... very normal and conservatively dressed, looking. Me, on the other hand, heavily tattoo'd, baggy dickies shorts, baseball cap bill flipped up, hoodie, goatee.... just overall punk. The skycap is checking us in and says, "Sorry mam, but you must go through extra screening." We ask why and he tells us. Then he says, "This whole TSA crap is just that. You're a very sweet, normal looking lady, then there's this guy" and nods to me, "yet we don't give him a second look."

Then he took us to the front of the ticket line to get us our special screening and he made $20.
