Clotted cream will be the end of me

Mar 30, 2009 22:54

I'm the proud owner of three (3) security stamps on my boarding pass. Each a different color, from a different lumpy guard. For two of them I bore a 6 oz jar of hard-to-find clotted cream; that's 3 ounces too many. So I first left the Secure Zone to check the bag, but it now costs $15. My metal wallet was in my carry-on... in the Secure Zone. Two more security checks let me back in, and I give all the credit to the TSA staff at Chicago Midway: they were calm and helpful, and even pleasant. They were a good influence on me.

Though Chicago is like Mpls, in charming midwestern ways, returning is a joy. As predicted, this is home.

chicago, travel
