3 years ago, they were still taking people's tweezers and nail clippers.
2 years ago, they were only taking people's cigarette lighters.
Now, it appears, we will shipped naked, twitchy from lack of  
medication, and dehydrated."

glasses (w/o cases) and necessary meds. Not looking forward to this week.
cheers, Tom Ball in the UK, flying Heathrow-Ireland tomorrow, then back to
Heathrow Tuesday, then UK-California Tuesday."

"Cheeze, Tom!  I can't believe they won't let YOU on with at least one Sp20!!
This has really gone too far now.  Medicines, baby formula, and water I can
understand, but depriving Tom Ball of a harp is outlandish!  You could
easily keep all 300 co-passengers entertained and HAPPY for the 11 hr flight
with just one harp and your vocals (maybe Kenny could play the knee-drums?)
- I bet you've got at least 11 hrs, if not 111, hrs of great material."

Hopefully they'll let him keep a tube of chapstick too. 
  If there was ever a case for those transparent TurboLids, this is it.
