back in July the family and I were returning from vacation in Florida. At the Jacksonville airport I was pulled out of line to go through the full body scanner. I guess i looked like a terrorist or whatever they were looking for in my shorts, flip-flops and grateful dead t-shirt. I don't know maybe they thought i had heroin shoved somewhere, who knows? Anyway as I wasn't packing anything other than what I was born with i had no problem with the scanner. It was kinda strange inside the "tube" with the widget wizzing around my body, but really what is the issue here? Hope they enjoyed the scenery!

If you have nothing to hide what's the big deal? I guess i just don't get it? I hear flying in and out of Isreal is a real xxxxx so i don't know why we americans think this is "unnecessary". Maybe someone can enlighten me as to what is the issue here?
