What Does TSA Stand For?

The Transportation Superstition Administration, apparently.

A self-described psychic's tip that a bomb might be on a plane prompted a search with bomb-sniffing dogs that turned up nothing suspicious, but forced the cancelation of the flight.
Unbelievable. Well, not the fact that they didn't find anything, that's to be expected - but that they actually took the *ahem* psychic seriously.
The purported psychic's call was "unusual," conceded Doug Perkins, local administrator for the federal Transportation Security Administration director.

"But in these times, we can't ignore anything. We want to take the appropriate measures," he said.

The appropriate measure to take when a psychic tells you anything about the future is to roll your eyes, walk away, and lament the sad state of reason in America.
