My friend Al had a dream where he was given a loaf of wonder bread, and between every set of slices there was a prize! Prizes were like the things you'd find in a crackjack box [ed. note: i last ate crackerjacks in the 70s, back when they still had neat toys] and a little larger, like say a small thin water pistol.

I really liked that idea and thought it would be a cool product! "Prize Bread! A prize between every slice!"

       Is it ready-sliced? Might be more interesting if not. Maybe they could put trading cards inside.

       I saw a movie where someone put a cutout of a handgun in the lining of someone else's luggage. I think it was to keep them from boarding a flight or some such . . . .

       If I put a cutout of Osama bin Laden into someone else's garment bag, would the result be:   

       a) a cancelled flight?
  

       b) a speedy visit from the FBI?
  

       c) a televised interview with Matt Lauer?
  

       d) a free round of drinks from the flight crew?
  

       If it's b, c, or d, I'm going to work with the cardboard and scissors ...

       [bristolz] Was that _The Spanish Prisoner_?

       Alas, [mwburden], I cannot recall. I just remember that one scene and thinking how nasty it was. This was probably at least a decade ago.

       It wouldn't go over well now, but a slightly nasty prank I once read about to play on someone is to buy one of the larger battery operated adult toys <'Lifelike Mr. Ed!'> and wrap it in tinfoil, then bury it in someone's bag. The foil will make it show on the X-ray, and embarassment will ensue.

       Who did you do this to, [SC]? One of your lusers?
bristolz, Dec 14 2001
  

       <grin> No, I wouldn't waste the money on them. For THEM, you could cut a gun-shape out of heavy foil and sew it into the lining of the case. Shows up on X-ray, and this is exactly what Bristolz posted on Nov 11...
