Weekly WTF?: Terrorism for the Holidays

"Snow globes are not permitted to be carried through security checkpoints," said Transportation Security Administration spokesman Dwayne Baird.

Snow globe? Snow bomb, more like. Obviously.

The reason is that the globes contain liquids, and TSA rules say that only liquids, gels or aerosols in containers of three ounces or less are allowed through security in carry-on bags. Could we change our minds if we called them "freedom globes" instead?

If you've seen "Unfaithful" you know just how dangerous a snow globe can really be. The snow globe's liquid is the last thing we should be worried about.
