    Is it me, or does this plan have a slight flaw?

    This story on the BBC news website made me chuckle...

    Manchester Airport says romantic surprises have been spoilt in the past when the ring was pulled out as staff rifle through bags.

    Now passengers who say "Be my valentine" will be whisked away for a private search.
    Because, as every budding Romeo knows, the girlfriend won't be in the least bit suspicious when their other half appears to flirt with the security staff before being taken off for a 'private' search.

    What's even better is broadcasting it on the news, so their other halves will know what they are doing anyway.

    I like that fact that only men will have read this article, so the women won't know the code word. I guess this means that women can't read.

    You could be onto something there, let's sue the BBC for being sexist.

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.
