Engineer Invents X-Ray Proof Skivvies - Sales Brisk

Man Creates and Sells Thousands of X-Ray Proof Underwear

Tuesday, November 23, 2010

Some folks get very nervous at the thought of an unseen TSA agent inspecting their privates before being allowed to fly to Grandma's for Thanksgiving.

So a 52 year-old electrical engineer from New Jersey came up with a solution.

The hi-tech underpants are tungsten-lined with X-ray repelling fibers covering the bingo zone. Now there will be a lot of TSA voyeurs disappointed when they no longer can enjoy their own private peep show of passenger privates. Instead of seeing your goods, the TSA agent will see fig leaves or other designs, maybe a Jesus Fish or an image of Osama bin Laden for the practical jokester passenger.

It remains to be seen if the TSA will ban the new underwear by claiming it interferes with the next body scanning security goal, the body cavity search. Once you're there why not go all the way? Uterus scans for handguns or tumors anyone?

Meanwhile job applications for screener positions at airports deploying the body scanners are expected to skyrocket as voyeurs see the opportunity to exercise their fetish and get paid for it.
