In the course of volunteer work that I do, I sometimes visit prisoners which, of course, involves passing through a fairly stringent security gate. One time that I remember especially well, my medium-sized purse did not pass the xray check, so one of the officers asked me to take out all the metal objects. Okay, no problem. Out came the coin purse, card holder, pens, nail file, two cell phones, Ipod, Leatherman, Swiss Army knife, mini flashlight, mini telescope, document magnifier, 10' measuring tape, tire pressure gauge, and compass. Very soon there was a crowd of uniforms gathered around staring. After I finished there was a moment's pause, then one female officer said calmly, "Well, a girl has to have her things, doesn't she?"
