Hi all...
Had a funny thing happen to me not long ago...
I was driving from Canada back into upstate New York (I drive a tractor-trailor in all 48 states) when I got caught in a special border check...I had to drive thru this mobile xray machine...Well, I knew something was up when it got to the cab and he had me back up and drive thru real slow twice...Then it was the ole' get out and stand in front while he searched the cab...Guess the old breast forms might look something like plastic explosives or something I dunno, LOL...He searched everywhere until he found them...Then he called me over and asked what is your name?...Then asked the same question again in disbelief...Then, holding up the boxes of my breast forms asked are these yours???...I replied, yes sir!...He then promptly returned them and concluded his search...Upon leaving I could tell he was more embarrassed than I was, lol...
Moral...Breast forms might trigger an autosearch, LOL!

I had somewhat the same experience at the airport! I got cheap tickets round-trip BUT on the return trip it was on a different airline, so the originating carrier only showed a one-way trip, so they singled me out for a full baggage search! And yes the forms do show up as potential "???" whatevers! When I was asked about them - I said my wife had had a masecotomy - they were hers and I hoped that did not bother them that I was carrying them to her?! They were more than apologetic about handling them and wished my wife a speedy recovery and were sorry for any inconvenience that they had caused me!

I hear ya Donna, lol...Truth be known, I had to wait in line for over 2 hours, so had the ability to go in the back and change...If I hadn't, I think "I" would've been the one more embarrassed!...Visions of a strip search and plopping my forms on a conveyor belt seems like severe trauma, LOL
Too funny Virginia!....Seems like you're a woman who thinks quick on her feet tho!
