I am back from Kosovo and had a splendid time there. I'll post more as time permits, but here's a foretaste: the kitten that wanders around the security checkpoint at the airport in Prishtina, the capital of Kosovo. The staff not only don't try to get rid of the kitten, they seem to love watching the faces of travelers who have to share a metal detector with it. Perhaps it's a devious security tactic: the reaction of travelers to the kitty sorts them into a sophisticated psychological profile. Or maybe not. Enjoy!
Argh. Obviously, using HTML entities for quotes doesn't work here. :-/

You're of course on the right track: as we know, human intelligence tremendously drops with increasing proximity to kittens. With your brain functions down to “kitty, kitty, kitty” there's no such thing as being successful as a terrorist.
