Flying off the Handle

The Goldsteins were traveling back from Florida where they spent the Passover holiday. Waiting in line to check in, Shifra Goldstein was trying in vain to get her group of rambunctious boys to calm down.

Finally, Shifra reached the counter, where the ticket agent asked her, "Have any of the items you plan to take with you on this flight been out of your immediate control since your arrival at the airport?"

The young mother replied honestly, "The luggage, no; the children, yes."
