:-) I won't deny it. But of course am I the way I am because I have a
beard? Or do I have a beard because I'm the way I am? Or, more to the
point, do I have the beard because each time I've shaved it off, babies
have cried, dogs have howled and slunk away with their tails between
their legs, and women have laughed to the point of passing out? ;-)

Any you appear to be so terrorist-like.

Last time I went to Washington DC, the fellow traveling with me (67
years old, 140 pounds, Irish, conservative accountant-type looks,
charcoal gray suit) got detained at every single point possible. Perhaps
the least likely terrorist if we are counting looks.

Jeffery,
one trip through the detectors and my hearing aids set it off.

So the fellow goes though the magic wand thing and didn't get any pings.
Twice and began a third pass and I said "it's my ears!"

 He looked and put the wand to each side of my head and yep it was the
ears....

Then he says, " take them off and walk through without them!" :-)

OK and they put them through the scanner, I walked through clean and
they returned my ears!  Aaaahh security love it. ;-)
