Satirical News Bureau
Washington DC

Following the recent Airline Bombing attempt by a Nigerian Man who had a chemical bomb sewn into his underpants. The Homeland Security Administration is considering taking steps similar to the ones it did after the Shoe Bomber and the Liquid Soda Bomber – namely limiting the type of underwear that men may wear onboard or aircraft.
Just as with the 3 oz liquid restrictions that were imposed after the liquid soda bomber attempt, the volume permitted inside of men’s underwear will be strictly limited

The Following Type of Men’s underwear will be prohibited

This type will only be permitted when worn on the outside when boarding aircraft.This type of men’s underwear is recommended since they limit the place and size that bomb making equipment may be stored.
Homeland Security Agents are expected to do an underpants check on all men boarding planes starting in early 2010.
