Airport Security Catches FG With a "Weapon"
When we last saw FG Gnome earlier this evening, he was at the Pittsburgh airport getting ready to catch a plane to Newark where he expected to board a British Air overnight flight to London. His cousin Prints Willgnome is getting married Friday. If you missed it, read his report from the Pittsburgh airport HERE. Here's his update from Newark:
HEY, GUYS! The hop from Steel City to Newark was quick and smooth. It was nice to unwind as I headed east. But there sure wasn't any relaxin' when we got to Jersey…. that place is a madhouse!
Anyway, I rammed my way to the checkin counter and got my boarding pass. But when I got to security they told me I had to leave my weapon at home. Weapon? What weapon? Ahhh…. they were talking about my shovel. But after I explained to them that it was part of me and can't be left anywere, we were able to have a compromise. They let me pass through after I stood still long enough for them to give me a complete patdown:
Ohhhh…Kaaaay…On me way…
I'm gonna sleep all the way so I'll be fresh (as fresh as a gnome can be, anyway) when I get to Heathrow. I'm anxious to meet Prints' bride-to-be for the first time. I hear she's a real doll. Somebody told me her name is Cayte Middlegnome. See you at the next report from London!
