If metal detectors are fun, X-rays are better. I once had my bags unpacked when they couldn't puzzle out what I was carrying (with a lovely corset brought out and shown; I simply pointed to the renaissance faire gear in the same suitcase and called it "costuming". On the same trip, I managed to crack up a security guard by putting a stained glass dragon through the X-ray machine. (I watched her scanning bags: look of boredom...look of boredom...startle, laugh, back up and run it again, call other guard over for a good giggle.)

Y'know, post-9/11, those metal stays might be a sore point with the guards (they might look like edged objects on the X-ray.)
