Yesterday they arrested an American as he arrived in Egypt because they found weapons in his luggage.

This person boarded the plane in New York and flew to Cairo. He went through the security check and I assume his luggage was also checked. Yet, the Egyptian authorities found weapons at him.

Now, what does that say about our security checks in the airport. I think Bozo the clown or the Keystone cops would be more efficient than those yahoos in uniform. Their only aim is to make us, the traveling public uncomfortable but they are not doing what they supposed to do.

They proudly walk around in their uniform acting like they are God's gift to airport security. But if one wants to sneak through anything contraband the person will succeed.

Their main occupation is to watch the clock and see when they can go on their next break.

What amazes me is that they do this every single day but still they act like this is the first time they are doing it. These people are totally disorganized and each day is a new adventure for them.

The fact that some of them speak very little English should not bother anybody in an English speaking country.

I think all those illegals who slip across the border in Arizona should head toward the nearest TSA recruiting station. They might have a great future ahead of them.

I honestly believe that everything that happens is being decided by public opinion polls.

I also honestly believe that I don't believe in public opinion polls.

If whatever happens is the result of public opinion than it seems that companies that provide these polls are the real shadow government.

The public opinion pollsters are asked to provide information on serious to mundane issues. They claim to obtain the information from a cross section of the proper sources. But anybody ever checked how the date is obtained?

They claim that they go, let's say, to Wallingford, Iowa, population 210 and ask the pertinent questions. According to their interpretations Wallingford, Iowa represents the country.

Excuse me, I don't know anybody in Wallingford, Iowa and I don't want to know anybody in Wallingford, Iowa.

How can a person in Wallingford, Iowa know what I think and how I feel about certain issues. Just an example, their air traffic is crop dusting while I live between two major international airports with serious jet noises.

So, the way I see it these companies can sell anything they want, even snow to the Eskimos.

With their made up results they can affect policy decisions governments make, or economical decisions financial institutions are making.

But I am at ease to know that the 210 people in Wallingford, Iowa are in strong control of my life.
