[Dixielandjazz] Washboards illegal?

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Well rumors have it that they are on the weapons of mass destruction 
list, and they often set off the security metal detectors and require 
hours of explanations to the well trained Security folks about what 
they are and why you have one in your possession without a government 
issued permit to carry one that is not concealed.

If you want to insist upon playing one you better put in your checked 
baggage, better yet slip it into the Tuba players case when he is not 
looking and let him deal with the security folks while you sip a beer 
in the lounge watching them make him strip to his undies for a total 
search.

Cheers,

Tom Wiggins

   Is that another clause of the patriot act?
