Permission to brush teeth en route?

Stardate 6437.90

Permission granted.

It seems that some of the ridiculous measures put in place to stop would-be bombers from blowing up a 747 with a tube of toothpaste have been lightened. Now you can take small amounts of things like toothpaste and other personal products on board planes, as long as they are stored in clear zip lock baggies and in amounts not exceeding 3 ounces... Hmmm. Sounds kinda familiar.
