But grandma's okay!

Cigarrette lighters and oxygen bottles are NOT allowed on planes and haven't been for quite some time, she just got nail with a random check, and she had six counts of assault. I wouldn't give this person a ride in the back of my truck yet let her on a plane.

Oh come on. This can't be legit. Espeically since two of the witnesses (Bud Cort and Scott Ryan) are characters from Stephen King and Tom Clancy novels respectively. And how does a guard let a wheelchair roll on top of him?! I'm sure this is intended as a joke. But it's not even slightly funny. More ridiculous than anything.

Not disagreeing with you, but Scott Ryan was never in a Tom Clancy novel. IIRC, it was Jack Ryan...

From the bottom of the article:

Bob Wallace, a former newspaper reporter and editor, and an incurable lover of puns, lives in St. Louis.

Yes, it was indeed a joke.

You sure are disagreeing with him. It was Jack Ryan. (Sir John Patrick Ryan)

Ah, my bad. Scott Ryan is my consultant from Sarcom. Too much computey stuff today. Need sleepy.
