I just want to know how the steet value. But with the current education level in the states, you know some dumbass would try to smoke it all himself. As a former paramedic just knew a lot of mental midgets who would try this. Not that I am anti druggie, some of these guys were the most pleasant to deal with--just hard to keep a straight face.

My question often was you snorted what and why? Lets just say the answers defied any lodgic.

2 Tons of Pot Found in Border Tunnel

SAN DIEGO

Authorities said they discovered more than 2 tons of marijuana in a cross-border tunnel that began near the Tijuana airport and ended inside a warehouse on the U.S. side.

The 2,400-feet long passageway is longer than most of the 21 cross- border tunnels that have been discovered since authorities began keeping track after the Sept. 11 attacks, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said.

"It was like being in a cavern or a cave," said Michael Unzueta, customs special agent in charge in San Diego.

The tunnel's discovery prompted the U.S. Attorney's office in San Diego to open a criminal investigation, said Lauren Mack, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Mexican authorities found the entrance about 100 yards south of the border on Tuesday, and officers on the U.S. side found the exit Wednesday. Mexican officials allowed reporters and photographers, including an Associated Press photographer, into the tunnel late Wednesday.

The tunnel was about five feet wide and high enough for an adult to stand inside, had a cement floor, and lights mounted on one of the hard soil walls. It was equipped with a pulley system on the Mexican side.

Four tunnels have been discovered this month in the Tijuana-San Diego area, including more primitive tunnel that was also found Wednesday when a U.S. Border Patrol vehicle struck a sinkhole.

yep but when they were funny they were the best. You are right some times your infor the the fight of your life.

Was watching VH-1 behind the scenes with cops. A woman goes to the cop say she wants him to arrest the other woman for stealing her 20 rather than giving her the crack. The other woman tells the cop she's hooker not a dealer. The cop could barely keep a straight face.

Yes, Yes Lauren...a criminal investigation, that's the ticket. And after that we could do a Senate Hearing; then it could be a campaign issue for 2008, perhaps OSHA could get involved if mining laws were broken, maybe the AFL-CIO can complain that it should be union miners digging that tunnel, not illegal immigrants...blah blah blah, Nero fiddles while Rome burns.


Ninety percent of the game is half mental.
