TSA at JFK

Then it was time for my second TSA line of the day. OMG, the magnitude of the TSA in JFK Terminal 1. There are more lanes than I-85 in Atlanta! With so many people the lanes folded back on themselves almost double. And so many different languages it was mind-boggling. 

(I've learned firsthand that many cultures don't have the inbred reverence and respect of standing in line that those of us former colonists of the British empire enjoy (endure? suffer?).) 

Perhaps because it was the end of the holiday weekend, this was the most crowded I've ever seen TSA in any airport ever. In all honesty, it took my an hour and 15 to make it through. Thank goodness I always build extra time into my schedule. 

And, no hand checking of my cords and coins.
