Feel safe now?

Dr. Daddy was away in Kansas the past couple of weeks. While there he decided to get Eirena a little sprinkler for her to run around in at home. Just your common sprinkler from Wally-world. The kind that has a spray part and has an aluminum spike to stick into the ground. Anyway, the day came for Dr. Daddy to return home. He had considered checking his one bag in, but then decided to just take it as a carry-on. So he did. He went through security with his bag, got on the plane, no problem. Got home, wonderful! And then it occurred to him that he was just allowed to fly on two airplanes with an aluminum spike in his carry-on bag. It is only aluminum, but it is about 9 inches long, and pointy at one end. A little disconcerting that he was allowed to take it on the plane with him. Thankfully it was Dr. Daddy and not some malicious individual that was carrying that thing on to the plane!
