Here is a musical post about music and security.
I was going to down to Texas in 1973 for some goodse hunting near =
Altair, TX in December. I had borrowed a good gun suited to the range, =
but the loaner had no hard case for it. So I put it in my heavy Conn =
Valve Trom. case. Worked just fine.=20
As I waited to get my boarding pass, the line behind me was full of =
young musicians from Interlochen who were on a Christmas break, most had =
violin cases tucked under their arms.
When I got to the check in I declared, as required, that I had a =
firearm in my luggage.
"I am declaring that I have a shotgun in this trombone case."
I looked around back at the kids with all the violins, and added, =
very dead pan serious, "Lord only know what they have in those violin =
cases."
The gal at the counter lost it and started to laugh so hard she =
couldn't finish the tickets and boarding passes for a couple minutes.
PS -- I got a limit of snow geese to bring back, so we all had a =
Christmas goose. (Play with that line, of you wish!)

Security at the embassy will probably be the same miserable =
'non-security that the U.S. has guarded our Embassy's with for years. =
There will be 3-4 Marines and most of them will be kids just out of boot =
camp. I will be interested in your report.
Yes, this is 'off-topic' but I don't consider the security of our =
country to be off-topic.
