Typically TSA workers only make the news for monumentally fucking up whenever an auditor successfully slips a Tellar-Ulam thermonuclear warhead through the metal detector.
It`s refreshing to learn that America`s $5 per hour guardians can get noticed for something new and different. Like planting a bag of cocaine into someone`s bag as a joke.
"A TSA worker was staring at 22 year old Rebecca Solomon. He motioned her toward him.
Then he pulled a small, clear plastic bag from her carry-on - the sort of baggie that a pair of earrings might come in. Inside the bag was fine, white powder.

Put yourself in her place and count out 20 seconds. Her heart pounded. She started to sweat. She panicked at having to explain something she couldn`t.
Now picture her expression as the TSA employee started to smile.

Two Japanese were caught with a shit load of U.S. Bonds heading from Italy to Switzerland. They had 249 treasury notes in their luggage, some of them worth $1 billion each.
"Are these would-be smugglers agents of Kim Jong Il stashing North Koreas cash in a Swiss vault? Bagmen for Nigerian Internet scammers? Was the money meant for terrorists looking to buy nuclear warheads? Is Japan dumping its dollars secretly? Are the bonds real or counterfeit?" - Bloomberg
I fancy myself a master criminal, and I have a few pointers for these two knobs. First, passing a One Billion dollar bill might require a managerīs sign-off at the local Banc Suisse branch. Second, have you ever heard of a little something called FedEx? Itīs a real bitch filling out all those shipping labels, especially if you are sending one treasury note at a time, but come on. I canīt help people that arenīt willing to help themselves.
