I've used & "gifted" the LL Bean bags. But I now like the Rick Steves
version better:

<http://travelstore.ricksteves.com/catalog/index.cfm?
fuseaction=product&theParentId6&id!4>

Or: http://tinyurl.com/pxe5r

What differentiates the "Rick" bag for me are two things.

First, there's no kangaroo pouch that folds down, which I find is
forever getting in the way (having a shorter overall hang height is
better). Second, the mesh pockets on the left & right sides are not
only good for general storage, but also allow you a place to pack a
damp washcloth which then has (a better) chance to dry out. Americans
who travel frequently to Europe will understand why I'm packing a
washcloth.

Plus its $5 cheaper, and I've found that the Rick gear wears like
iron. I've got one of his softsided carry-ons that easily has a
quarter million real miles on it.

Magda had better things to do. But Mike gave you a very good suggestion... Take it.

The suggestion was where you should put your tooth brush, when you'll be forced
to board in your birthday suit. Be our guest.

I'm not worried about toothbrushes, but YOU ARE.

No, wigs are for bald ladies.

First god made man beautiful, then she gave him hair:-)

Privacy-protecting scanner

Airport X-ray machines can see through clothing to reveal concealed weapons
and explosives. Inevitably, though, they also provide a revealing image of
a passenger's naked body [...].

A team at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, which is run by the
University of California and US Department of Energy, has developed a
system that promises to be less invasive.

The X-ray machine still generates a detailed image of the passenger’s naked
body. But, before it is displayed, the head, armpits and groin are
automatically marked as reference points from which the torso, legs and
arms are stretched and bent. This creates a distorted and hard-to-recognise
image – like that in a fairground hall of mirrors.

Although the passenger will now be unrecognisable, any concealed weapons
should still be visible on screen. The security guard can click on any
suspicious objects to remove the distortion and enlarge that area for a
closer look.

Read the privacy-protecting scanner patent application:
http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-...DN/20060262902
(sry about the long URI).

Jaqueloon hides it under her moustache? Uncle Adolph always took his toothbrush

That needs a health warning! You look remarkably like my brother in law.
