From my experience with a younger Lil Stampie it doesn't go well.  Actually that depends on your goals.  If you think both of you running from a matchbox car doing corkscrews about 5 feet in the air is good then go for it.

This is why I like being an uncle. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to fit a small rocket motor in a pinewood derby car.

Why small?

Stealth. I want it to trigger on wheel movement, maybe with a safety switch on the bottom so it's not armed until it's straddling the rail. And of course, it has to finish the course. It won't take much.

Irritated about the misspelling but I didn't make it. *Meanwhile.

This was a missed plot point in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I think that was covered in 2010, but it has been a long time since I saw that movie.

This is where the TSA agent says "OK, wait here for an hour while I get my supervisor"...

The TSA regs are fun. You can't bring on more than a small amount of jam, but there is no limit on pies. Maple syrup is called out specifically, sorry Canadians. Creamy cheese is limited, but solid cheese and a cheese grater is okay. Lock picks are ok.

Peanut butter is also a liquid according to the TSA.

I still do that with the peanut butter, however many decades after that comic came out.

And this is why all government employees suck and citizens should be allowed to shoot one per year when they abuse their power.

So calling someone out for purposefully trying to break a law and making them wait until it proves itself (water changes state to liquid) is somehow bad or government overreach?  This is exactly what they should be doing, not something that some shiny happy person should be allowed to whine like an entitled baby over, let alone shoot someone for doing their job for.  Your view is really a good argument for restricting the #2nd amendment actually, and that from a gun owner.

In reply to Adrian_Thompson (Forum Supporter) :

The TSA is bad, even by their own measures and audits. They suck at their job, fail a majority of their effectiveness tests, and this has been well documented by government testing. They serve no purpose other than security theater, and should be removed to save taxpayer money for bigger politician bonuses. They are the meteorologists of security, always wrong but somehow always employed. 

Just because something is "law" doesn't make it right, just, good, or useful.
