Gel bras
From DailyKos

The latest victim of the war on terror: bust boosters.


Brian Ross:

U.S. authorities are advising women not to wear gel bras on airplanes as information developed in the foiled London plot points to an expanding role for women in smuggling explosives on to an aircraft.

Authorities at Scotland Yard are questioning a husband and wife, suspects in the London terror plot, about allegations that they were planning to use their baby’s bottle to hide a liquid bomb.

Police in the U.K. have recovered baby bottles containing peroxide, including some with false bottoms, from a recycling center close to the homes of some of the arrested suspects.

“Flying naked”:

Couldn’t that be considered cruel and unusual punishment? After all, as someone once said, the people you see naked at a nude beach are very rarely the ones you’d WANT to see naked.

“All joking aside though, how long will it be until someone really does attempt to use a surgically implanted explosive?”

They’ve already shown this in multiple television shows as a plotline.

What about silicone boobs?

All joking aside though, how long will it be until someone really does attempt to use a surgically implanted exlplosive?
