I think this is the best explanation. I can imagine 20 or 30 magnetic hooks twisting and turning into odd shapes on an xray machine. LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On more than one occasion I have forgotten to pack it in my checked luggage. When that happens, I give it to my wife and she puts it in her purse. She has carried that knife through TSA checkpoints and cruise terminal checkpoints. Either they don't care about it because it's so small or with all the other shi (stuff) she has in her purse, they just don't notice it. I love that you make her put it in her purse . ??

We bring 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted September 25, 2023 #29 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I bring more hook magnets when I want to do a string or two of LED Xmas lights on December cruises. Very festive stung along the walls. Big no no to use tape on any of the doors or walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doghog Posted September 25, 2023 #30 Share Posted September 25, 2023 We bring more hooks than what we need. Always packed in our checked luggage (along with a roll of duct tape,😉) and never had an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great for a whole other discussion on another board, somewhere. Oh, just an FYI, I do remove my chewing tobacco from my mouth, place it on a napkin, sip my wine with my pinky sticking out, and then replace the chewing tobacco. After all, I'm a man of culture, I'd never drink wine with tobacco in my mouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
