News and Notes from Around the Interweb:

- Thousands of Men and Women Keeping Us Safe Day in and Day Out. Even better than ‘Man Bits Dog’ – sadly – is TSA Dog Bites Woman.
- Rachel Ray Could Cook 3 Dinners in the Time it Took..: TSA delays of up to 90 minutes at Atlanta airport on Thursday. The TSA won’t give a reason, but excuses themselves by saying that most travelers ‘only’ waited for 45 minutes. I’m surprised they haven’t blamed the sequester — when air traffic controllers were put back to work, I assumed the next PR battle would be TSA. Perhaps ‘playing games with security’ isn’t as good political spin.
Darn! I was really hoping for ‘Dog Bites TSA’!
