Watch List

Is it possible to get on an airline watch list just by posting to this forum? I'd rather not have my family go through what I recently went through though my wife would probably complain to someone more directly than what I'm doing here. My parents have also complained recently about "twilight zone" experiences (traffic situations and things getting spilled in the house and garage?).
 
Lol, doubtful. I've flown after posting here and didn't have a problem. About to fly again monday-tuesday...

Attacks come in many forms, alas such is the price for taking the red pill.
 
Well a few quotes from my escorts:

"You look familiar, where do you work?.... well you know what they say, you meet 3000 people a day, 2990 of whom you'll never see again" [several days before the trip]

"Really, you look just like someone I knew at work?" [a few days before the trip and he looked like the guy who later just got up and went on first for the first plane of my trip]

"If you are good, you get to live" [talking among themselves on an airport shuttle bus to a gate]

"Like they say in Vegas, what happens here stays here" [talking among themselves after the Vegas to Philly leg landed]

"F***" [said by a James Carville looking guy who stepped in front of me in a restaurant line after previously following me, getting to my gate to a small town before me, and flexing his muscles standing up a few rows in front of me, pretty sure I saw him later in different clothes]

"I've started reading the Flat Earth book" [to the lady between him and me, the book is one my Mom gave me that I haven't read yet]

"Now the games begin" [said by the Flat Earth guy after landing]

"Yea go ahead" [said by the burly guy next to me after we were the only ones still sitting and I asked him if they called group 5 yet, 4 of my 6 legs for the trip did not have groups listed and this was the only one of the 4 where they said what one should do in this case... wait for group 5.... they later called group 6 with no one left sitting and I'm pretty sure no group 5 was called]

Hope I don't get in trouble for not letting things in Vegas stay in Vegas.
 
When I visited the US last time (2001, never went back after that) I got caught in every security checkpoint. I even asked why, and the lady pointed at the "Que" (stion?) mark on my ticket as the reason. Recently, when I was returning from the chateu in France my luggage got marked with a bright yellow "HOT" tag, even though it only contained clothes. I've had people in parked black cars take photos of me at the airport. So those are kinds of things I've noticed thus far. Psychological ploys, sure, but not more than that. It'd have to be a little more overt before I would let it change my behaviour in any significant way.

Good gracious me! I do hope you're not making it to easy for them! ;)
