This obvious spoof is still funny: a homeland security-themed charter middle school. Class offerings include -

 

TSA 101 - Shoe Removal For Dummies - Instruction will focus on general guidelines for Transportation Security Administration workers, including specific lessons in how to get people at airports to remove their shoes. Classes will also focus on the historical precedents for removing shoes as a means of ensuring the safety of the traveling public. Students will also learn to deal with serious foot odor issues.

TSA 102 - Nail Clippers: America’s Silent Killer - Students will learn about the threat to public safety posed by nail clippers. While many Americans believe nail clippers are fairly benign and cannot possibly be weaponized, students will receive detailed instruction in how nail clippers can be used to disable a 747. Students will be required to review the MacGyver episode in which Richard Dean Anderson defeats the entire Russian army using only a pair of nail clippers and his shoe strings.
