Whenever I am at the airport, I always manage to get a hug from the security personnel present at the security check.

Well, you're supposed to tremble and get scared and it never, almost never means the security of the national government. More likely to mean the security or the personal happiness of the guy who is telling you something.

Ben Bradlee
