Trip Notes
I forgot to mention one little event from my recent trip to the Northeast. While waiting to board my return flight in Baltimore, I watched as the security screeners selected for extra screening a toddler - a little blond-headed very caucasian girl, no older than 3, wearing shorts and a t-shirt. She had no clue why she was being made to stand on the little rubber pad, hold her arms out and be scanned with the wand. A few dsays earlier, as I arrived in Baltimore, I saw the security screeners select a very elderly wheelchair-bound lady for extra screening at the gate. All 19 Sept. 11 hijackers were young Arab men, not toddlers and grannies.
