Tiny Monkey Industries had to catch a flight to Boston yesterday morning. Yup, the same morning British authorities broke up a plot to bomb airplanes with liquid explosives. But instead of celebrating the fact that the threat was averted, the TV was wall-to-wall red-level terror.
In fact, all the local stations were camped outside of CVG wailing and gnashing their teeth. So, in a panic, TMI left early for the airport and drove 80mph to get there. So just how long did it take to clear security on this woeful day?
Exactly 4 1/2 minutes.
When we risk our lives driving too fast on the highway only to sit around for two hours with nothing to do but watch CNN repeat the same thing over and over again about this brand new threat, then the terrorists really have won.
TMI's favorite commentator/philosopher, Ze Frank, shared a similar outlook on yesterday's episode of The Show.
This is Tiny Monkey Industries, sitting around at the airport, so you don't have to.
Eye protection is recommended.
