I was asked to put my shoes and my belt through the x-ray
machine at La Guardia. I looked puzzled and said "belt?"
and got a nod. "Oh, ok". In all the travelling I've done, this
was the first time I had to take my belt off to go through
airport security. Had to take it off a few times to go into Hindu
temples (some don't allow anything made from dead animal)
when I was in India, but never through airport security.

When I went to Australia, they asked me if I had a criminal record; I said
"I didn't think you still needed one to get in".

BADABUM!
