9. You pay after you eat, but you stand in line and pay a cashier

Redux post of the day
Taking a lesson from Saint Francis Xavier, born on this date in 1506, NewMexiKen has decided to raise the level of the insults I hurl, for example, at other drivers. From now on, instead of “Hey, a**hole,” or “m*****f*****,” or some other Deadwood appropriate language, I am simply going to yell:
“It upsets me to know that at the hour of your death you may be ordered out of paradise.”

Full Body Scans to Double as Annual Checkups

President Obama announced the breakthrough solution this morning, telling reporters, “With this all-purpose exam, we will be able to find everything from a hidden weapon to a spot on your lung.”
After scanning a passenger, Mr. Obama said, “We will either give you a clean bill of health or wrestle you to the ground.”
The President added that instituting the body scan/checkup could ward off some terrorists right from the start, “because a lot of them will balk at the $25 co-pay.”
