Jeffery,
one trip through the detectors and my hearing aids set it off.

So the fellow goes though the magic wand thing and didn't get any pings.
Twice and began a third pass and I said "it's my ears!"

 He looked and put the wand to each side of my head and yep it was the
ears....

Then he says, " take them off and walk through without them!" :-)

OK and they put them through the scanner, I walked through clean and they
returned my ears!  Aaaahh security love it. ;-)
