Today's Idiot
Federal authorities say joking about having stuff that goes boom is not funny. But that's apparently what a New York City physician did last week in the passenger terminal of the Rochester Airport.
Even the Fourth Doctor would know better than to joke like that.
It happened Friday morning at the Jet Blue ticket counter. The TSA says that Dr. Hany Mossad-Boktor was asked the standard question about having any slugthrowers in his luggage, and he replied, "no, just a couple of bombs and a little dynamite, but it's no big deal."
Been asleep twenty years, Rip van Winkle?
TSA Federal Security Director John McCaffrey tells WHAM News that is a big deal, in terms of trying to keep the airport safe and the operation running smoothly. He says bomb sniffing dogs were called in to check the man's luggage. It showed no signs of kaboom devices, but he was charged with falsely reporting an incident, which is a felony.
"You'll still get to take a trip, beauzeau; you'll even get state-sponsored accomodations.
