A screwdriver name Petruchio?
What's notable, in this day and age, is that they actually let him on the
plane with a screwdriver.

Try having to take a tool pouch in to an airport (LIT) and working on the
computer wiring in said airport because they asked you to come in and work
on the said computer wiring!!!! Glad I get paid by the hour!!!

And that's the truth. Guy in front of me one day last summer getting on a plane
to P'burg (all planes out of this P'burg go to the big P'burg) got hisself just
about stripped of computer tools. I'd guess that little enterprise, taking his
toolkit on board, cost him some hundreds of bucks. It always amazes me what
government types feel are dangerous stabbing weapons in one guy's briefcase,
while the guy behind has a briefcase with 8-10 ballpoint pens and a dozen
sharpened pencils.

Charlie -
Sorry to jump in "Off Topic", but do you live in Pittsburgh, PA??? Forgive
me if you've indicated this before - I'm having one of those "Duh" senior
moments...
