Bad Idea Jeans Examples, #50824K: A man had packed a toy grenade into his carry-on luggage, which JFK Airport security screeners noticed, and then caused Terminal 6 to be evacuated. Yes, this was a Jet Blue passenger. The police bomb squad had to be called in, and they determined that it was not a live bomb but a toy, so the other passengers were only put out for 45 minutes. While it's unclear whether or not the man had other fake warfare items in his bag, like fatigues, face paint, a copy of Apocalypse Now, the man was not charged. Clearly, the upside is that the baggage screeners saw it and flagged - better safe than sorry. But, still, this just seems stupid.

Gothamist has been going out more lately, and we've been debating various acceptable cocktails. Jake was fond of the Cosmopolitan, but Jen's withering opinion ruined it for him. Jen likes vodka straight up or with soda at times, but that can be Bad Idea Jeans. Finally, Gothamist settled on the screwdriver, as it's a little sweet, a little tart, and strong.
