what time is it ?

Back to the usual pencil people illustrations with digital backgrounds.

Recently the news has just been completely dominated by this airport fiasco with hand luggage. Last week they made everyone check in hand luggage due to security threats. Now I just don’t understand why they have relaxed the law to allow a small hand luggage (just conveniently laptop sized, for business passengers perhaps?). So last week you couldn’t take any on and this week they have decided that plane bombers will only use bombs which are slightly larger than a laptop. Who exactly comes up with the logic on this ?

Another of the recent inventions is “average speed cameras”, the theory is that these take your number plate then record the time to the next camera and work out the average, if its above 70mph you get a ticket. So how does that stop you breaking the speed limit ? My own personal tactic is to try and get up to at least 140mph which is twice the legal limit and then when you manage it just do 30mph until the next camera.

    Rob, Your error is in trying to apply “logic.” We’re talking about GOVERNMENT agency security measures here, right? Forget logic.

    oh yeah I forgot, anyone would think they are just trying to be seen as doing something about it.

    Airport security policies are just as nonsensical here in the states. First, they only let you have 3 lighters in your carryon. Because you can hijack a plane with 4 but not three?

    Then, they decided that you could have no lighters, but matches are ok. Because… One kind of fire is more dangerous than the other? Um..
