Pug’s Place

From the Associated Press…

WASHINGTON (AP) - The government agency in charge of airport security spent nearly a half-million dollars on an awards ceremony at a lavish hotel, including $81,000 for plaques and $500 for cheese displays, according to an internal report obtained by The Associated Press.

Awards were presented to 543 Transportation Security Administration employees and 30 organizations, including a “lifetime achievement award” for one worker with the 2-year-old agency. Almost $200,000 was spent on travel and lodging for attendees.

I feel so safe now!

Anyway, if you’re reading this you should be complaining to the TSA, but more importantly be complaining to U.S. Congressman Jeff Miller and U.S. Senator Bill Nelson (assuming you live in NW Florida). I write these gentlemen several times a month, you should too.
