Since my girl moved to New Mexico I'm visiting her once/twice a month meaning that I will deal with TSA pinheads at least twice in 30 days (not counting days I work). So I did something smart and gave my girl my old Wave to keep for me while in NM and since she was driving there it was all good. I do not check in my bags since with connection time of 30 min I don't think they going to make it. With new TSA rules I became little worried about content of my FAK since it contained cortizone, neosporin and water jel pockets. I also had some pills (benadryl, tylenol and asa) loosly packed in small bags. My pack also have shears attached to it. So guess what? All this stuff went thru xray without a problem. No questions, no stops. Ticket agent fliped when I told them I have that upon checking in and predicted confiscation and disposal. TSA didn't look twice at my bag. I'm trying to figure out if I was lucky or they were tired or my items are not on the list...
