Professional pilots should not joke when it comes to security people with empty craniums.
Am I missing something here? A pilot treats the touchy issue of airline security as a joke (and I'm inclined to write 'with contempt') and it's the security personnel who are the ones with "empty craniums"?
If a passenger had said this "as a joke" I suspect the pilots on this forum would be baying for his blood. Does it only become a harmless joke when it's one of your own?
In any case, why do people still think that the "bomb in the luggage" joke is funny? It's not. It's unoriginal and it's pathetic.
