    3. Oh, I'm not fussy. New friends are always welcome; I don't really have the knack.

  3. At least you don't have a titanium hip joint. One is not even left with the protection of underpants.

  6. Darn - and I have yet to be frisked. I can take knitting needles on the plane, but not into the county courthouse. Yet they both let me carry ballpoint pens.

    What color are your underpants?

    1. Hey Roxie! The knitting needle rule is bemusing. As you say, a ballpoint is okay. As for my underpants? White. Mostly. Indigo x

  8. Right on the mark! All federal buildings here have scanners, and lots of Americans my age have metal bits in them. We do a spread-eagle strip dance. It's patriotic!

    1. Hey Geo! Proud of you sir. It's like that nice President Kennedy said - "Ask not what your country can do for you, but how many clothes you can take off in embarrassing situations for your country." Indigo

  9. Gak ... we have not yet entered this territory in my neck of the woods, thank goodness.

    Re your reply to Z: Tinfoil undies? Don't they pinch?

    1. Hey Jenn! It's worse than airport security; they'll at least let you take your STUFF with you if they decide it's safe. Not so the embassy. I had to rent a locker at a local pharmacy for the time I was in there; phone, car keys, camera, android tablet, earphones. Such fun. Indigo x

    2. Oh, and the underpants didn't pinch for long.

  10. A 'taxing' situation to be sure. As for King? I doubt I'd admit to knowing you if you were just in underpants either.

    Perhaps if you wouldn't lock your wardrobe things would have been different. Not better necessarily, just different.

    1. Hey Alistair! Now, stop that punning right now, young man. We're not on F*c*b**k. Funny how that looks rude with the asterisks in... As for the wardrobe, I've tried everything except acceptance; it's not in my nature. Roth

  11. With the long flowing mane of hair that I carried in my younger days I was a natural target for airport security. Now that I carry little hair, and no metal, I pass quick and easy through security.

    1. Hey Shawn! Yep, I had similar problems in my yoof. Being six feet five tall and sullen-looking didn't help my cause any. Indigo
