It’s hard to believe, but snow globes (even tiny ones) are a carry-on baggage no-no. I’m not kidding — an airline luggage inspector actually seized our miniscule Vegas memento. Why? It seems that bomb-makers can do something really, really scary with the fraction-of-an-ounce of water contained in an eight-dollar snow globe.
And that brings me to my latest haiku:
Seizing your snow globe
For being an airline threat
Doesn’t hold water.
