"TSA personal pat down..." 'Chester "Unc" Lau' (Source)

"Chester "Unc" Lau a retired cinematographer living his golden years on the Island of Oahu. He is back guest-blogging about the day he misplaced his car key's..."
Several days ago, as I left a meeting, I desperately gave myself a personal TSA pat down. I was looking for my keys. They were not in my pockets. A quick search in the meeting room revealed nothing. Suddenly I realized, I must have left them in the car. Frantically I headed for the parking lot.

My girlfriend Kumiko has scolded me many times for leaving the keys in the ignition. My theory is the ignition is the best place not to lose them. Her theory is that the car will be stolen. As I burst through the doors, I came to a terrifying conclusion. Her theory was right. The parking lot was empty I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen. Then I made the most difficult call of all, "Honey," I stammered. I always call her "honey" in times like these. "I left my keys in the car, and it has been stolen." There was a period of silence. I thought the call had been dropped, but then I heard Kumiko's voice.

"Unc" you jackass, " she barked, "I dropped you off!" Now it was my time to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me." Kumiko retorted, "I will, as soon as I convince this cop I have not stolen your car !"I call it just another 'Senior moment'!
