Singing Instead Of Stripsearches At An Airport
T-Mobile-sponsored flash-mob at Heathrow.
At LAX today, as we came in from Paris, just a long wait at Customs, a nice Customs agent who admitted me (and told me I "seem happy"), and a longer wait by Gregg as he got sent through the agriculture line after admitting to bringing in a saucisson -- all wrapped up, but apparently, a great danger to the world as we know it. (We think they ate it after we left.)
I love these mobs, when done with exceptional talent. Here's one that every mall's food court should experience:

These folks rocked lunch!

Did the find the saucission during the pat-down?

Maybe you should lobby Amazon to carry Saucisson. Cheaper than flying to France to get some. ;-)

Those people have some talent! That was sweet.

The confiscation of saucisson is alone a very good motive to enrol in the TSA, if you can also get some Johnny walker, that would be "le paradis"!

My daughter brought some Japanese bread with sweet bean paste inside it back with us last trip. Unfortunately, it looks just like fruit on the x-ray.
Then they confiscated our hayashi rice, because it contains beef, which might lead to mad-cow disease. Never mind that the mad cow outbreak was in the US, and the Japanese had blocked meat imports from the US, causing the US to retaliate...
