I so need to be hanging out at Home Depot.

Large quantities of drugs were found inside merchandise from at least two Home Depot stores in Massachusetts, and authorities are investigating, police said Wednesday.

A contractor late last week discovered two 50-pound "bricks" of marijuana wrapped in plastic bags inside a bathroom vanity he had purchased at a Home Depot store in Tewksbury, said Chief of Detectives Lt. Dennis Peterson.

What's going on here? I can't get one good dime bag in Jackson because of Frank Melton, but I can walk into Home Depot, buy a bathroom vanity, and have enough street value drugs to pay off my student loans?

This just isn't fair.

Maybe you need to hang with Frank more Ali? Seems his "boys," at least Charles Walker, has some way to get weed. Or maybe go on a roadblock with him. He brags about smelling the smoke then telling the kids in the car not to smoke weed and to go home. Then you can follow 'em and see if they can hook you up! Or maybe one of his informants will tell you what house people are smoking weed in so you can go bust up in there. If you need help, Melton has trotted out a law that allows "Males 21 to 60" to fight crime. Just call it a bust and go on in. Just an idea...

I know, it was getting late and I left out "take a male" before going on a bust. Sorry... Also, I wonder how many "bathroom vanities" make it to their intended destination? I guess this was probably one of hundreds of "vanities" packages this way. One of the weirdest drug stories I've read lately is that the DEA found bricks of cocaine with herion packaged in the middle of the bricks. Why? To be able to charge the "carriers" less for transporting cocaine when in fact they were hauling herion. Even the dealers screw the dealers over!

Oh my god, I can send money? Sweet. I was wondering about ways I could really show how much I liked your blog/columns, kept trying to come up with clever words, phrases that would cath your eye as a writer... It never occurred to me to use simple currency..... expect lots soon. glad youre at least saving therapy money.
