Thanks TQ, somehow you said it better than I did.

On the way out of Panama we saw the works piled in a huge plastic container. My family was quite amused at what we saw..... a hammer, baseball bat, screw driver, tool kit, matches, a license plate, scissors, AIR HORN(! lol) you name it. Yes, it's everywhere and that is the whole point me thinks.
LaurieMar some pictures coming your way in a couple days! Thanks again for your advice. Claudio says hello and I will email you details.
You're right ladies, no woman should have her tweezers confiscated! lol
