What would you do if you found a bag of cocaine in a pepper?

Probably inappropriate, but a great Rockabilly-esque song anyway...if you haven't seen the Rev live, make it a point to do so. Way way too much fun...


[FONT=arial,helvetica]Reverend Horton Heat - Bales of Cocaine[/FONT]

[FONT=arial,helvetica]Well, I was workin' on my farm 'bout 1982,
Pullin' up some corn and a little carrot, too
When two low-flying aeroplanes, 'bout a hundred feet high
Dropped a bunch o' bales o' somethin', some hit me in the eye...

So I cut a bale open, an' man was I surprised
Bunch o' large sized baggies, with big white rocks inside
So I took a little sample to my crazy brother Joe
He sniffed it up and kicked his heels, said, "Horton, that's some blow!"

Bales of cocaine, fallin' from low-flyin' plane
I don't know who done dropped 'em, but I thank 'em just the same
Bales of cocaine, fallin' like a foriegn rain
My life changed completely by the low-flyin' planes

So I loaded up them bales in my pick-em-up truck,
Headed west for Dallas, where I would try my luck
I didn't have a notion if I could sell 'em there,
But, thirty minutes later, I was a millionaire...

Bales of cocaine, fallin' from low-flyin' plane
I don't know who done dropped 'em, but I thank 'em just the same
Bales of cocaine, fallin' like a foriegn rain
My life changed completely by the low-flyin' planes

And now I am a rich man, but I'm still a farmer, too
But I sold my farm in Texas, bought a farm down in Peru
And when get so homesick, I think I'm goin' insane,
I travel back to Texas in a low-flyin' plane...

Bales of cocaine, fallin' from low-flyin' plane
I don't know who done dropped 'em, but I thank 'em just the same
Bales of cocaine, fallin' like a foriegn rain
My life changed completely by the low-flyin' planes [/FONT]

This IS a popular thread. Perhaps we should start up a Pharmacast forum.

If it were me, I'd probably have a taster, then get rid. Not to the police though, they have enough drugs.

This end of the drug spectrum isn't for me though. Fuels way too much aggressive behaviour. And doesn't last long enough.

How come "Make A Colombian Fajita" is not one of the poll responses?

If a mod can get on that asap.

My first instinct would be to flush it. Taking it to the police would be too risky. What if I was stopped and searched for some reason, on the way? Can you see the cops believing that I was on my way to them with it? I'd want it out of my possession ASAP, so it would go down the toilet. I'd probably then make an anonymous call to the police, preferably from a payphone, to let them know what I'd found, and where, so they could check the store for more hidden bags of coke.

Finally someone else as paranoid as me. I mentioned how they could get you for possession earlier, but I shoulda went into more details about being stopped like you mentioned.

booo-rriiing

Gareth, if you lived where I lived (junkie city!), had lost many friends to drugs over the years, and been robbed at knifepoint by a junkie - you'd be "booo-rriiing", too .

Cocaine is a social drug.

That's odd. Everyone I've ever known who got into that crap invariably ended up hiding in their house, generally in the bathroom, peeking out through the curtains while doing it. Doesn't sound very social to me.

As far as the poll goes, I'd sell it through a trusted friend who deals in "apothecary distribution", and split the profits with him.

i would have phoned the police assistance line, and asked for instructions, and or advise them i was on my way to nearest station

i would also advise them to get to the store asap and confiscate all the suspect produce.

That might work.

The most obvious thing to I would do, is go back and buy more peppers...

You just won the thread! Cant believe I didnt think of that.

Fun fact: We call peppers 'capsicums' in Australia. Frak knows how you guys came up with 'pepper' for that thing.

Capsicums? Wow, that just sounds nasty.
