When they said "oops, sorry, nothing we can do" and Gryph asked for a manager, they transferred him to the overflow hotel. This is after TSA slit open my box with my sword and didn't bother to retape it (thank goodness everything seems to be there), but still! Wth?

Pictures TSA and his highly trained partner looking at the sword shaped xray on the box marked "sword" in the checked luggage:
"We have to check if it's a weapon."
"uhh....yuhhhh..."
"Looks like a sword."
"uhhh..... yuhhh... sword."
"The tag says 'sword.' Might be a weapon."
"uyhhh... yuhhh...weapon."
"Let's open it."
"Uhhh.... yuhhhh... open."
"Ok. It's a open. It's a sword."
"Uhhh.. yuhhh... sword."
"Just like it says on the tag, just like it looks like on the xray."
"uhhh... yuhhh... xray."
"But we're paid to check to see if the box tagged "sword" in the checked baggage actually was a sword, just to be sure."
"uhhh...yuhhh... sure."
"Well, it could have been a sword shaped bomb. Never can be too sure, good thing we're highly trained professionals."
"uhhh... yuhhh... pro...pro....pro...uhhh... trained."

Do you have a confirmation number? They make great flails to use on goobs who screw up reservations...
