Couple of years ago SWMBO and I flew to Europe. We flew from IAH to Boston Logan then caught our flight from Logan to Chuck DeGaul in gay Paris.

When we went through TSA at IAH the backscatter device picked up the titanium and stainless steel in my left leg which triggered a touchy feely pat-down from TSA. The IAH goons thoroughly felt, squeezed, and patted down my left leg as per the indication on the machine display.

We had to do the TSA scan again at Logan to board the intercontinental flight. The machine again picked up the metal in me. The TSA goon again said he had to do a pat down, but this one went after my right leg. He finished, stood up and told me "You are free to go." I turned, pointed at the screen, and said "Are you absolutely certain?" He said yes. I said "You guys are so efficient that I am truly amazed." He smiled. I said "You have no idea what I am talking about, do you?" He said no. I left, shaking my head.
