Some hilarious announcements from MCO this morning
Picked my wife up at IAD from her trip to visit her relatives in FL and asked her how the airport experience was.
She said MCO was very empty (and having never flown out of there on a Monday, I don't know how typical that is). Then she said they were making several PA announcements repeatedly:
My wife said a teenager sitting next to her in the gate area said, "The world must be coming to an end if they're banning cream cheese."

You are not permitted to bring water or other beverages past the security checkpoint. You may purchase beverages from vendors and restaurants once past the checkpoint, but you will not be permitted to bring them onboard your flight.
If you purchase a bagel with cream cheese, you will not be permitted to bring the bagel onto your flight.

To me, the scariest part of all this nonsense is that we, as a country, are all going along with it. We may complain among ourselves and attempt some feeble resistance here and there, but no matter how ridiculous it gets, we go along. I am flying international later in the week, and I am sure that I, too, will go along.
None of this stupid siht has made us one bit safer, and we're told that if we don't agree, we are on the side of the terrorists.
Insanity.

Wow.
Anyone still think the terrorists haven't won already?
