Ohhhh great, a ticking time-bomb set to go off in my pants! So much for the family jewels!!! LOL

Somehow I don't think that the TSA is gonna let these babies onto a commercial airliner, plain and simple. Hells bells, they don't allow old fashion Zippo lighters in carry-on luggage and limit you to 2 standard commercial butane lighters (like BIC) or 2 safety matchbooks......no no on torch-type butane lighters. Did anyone even think about THAT issue in light of the failed "Underwear Bomber" plot of Christmas Day 2009?????

Al Queda would love these puppies fur sure fur sure!
