Apparently, he had a small pipe and a small amount of personal stash and
on his person and was caught at the walk thru x-ray mnachine. Must've
got away with this before......Interestingly, he was recruited to NW
airlines from Disney. He is 53. Very succesful. Sort of blows the 'ol
gummint stereotype. Wasn't it the new DEA head (or was it FBI, sort of
hard to keep track of the gov's clandestine operations) that just said
"the image of a peaceful, productive drug user is false, they don't exist" ?

Not sure if he set off the metal detector and had to empty his pockets or
if he stunk ?!
