Scanned to the Skin

KSTP TV - Minneapolis and St. Paul - Full-body scanners coming to MSP

Y'know, I'm not so worried about how each individual feels about being "scanned" to the "skin."

I'm more worried about the TSA people who have to look at each and every body. YUK! I think they should get hazard pay!

Yesterday I mentioned American Airlines new $8 fee for a blanket in flight (provided, of course, your flight is over two hours in duration) for coach passengers. Today American surpassed itself in the extra charges domain by announcing a $50 charge for flying "standby" (again, for coach passengers only.) Soon a first-class ticket will seem like a bargain compared to a coach ticket plus all the extra charges.
