    > Prolly figured you were trying to smuggle prescription drugs, or mary-jane,   
   in   
    JM> to the country.  :D   
      
    JM>   Could be.  :)   
      
     Those 2 words were used quite a bit in the Looney Tunes cartoons.    
      
    JM>   One time Groucho Marx, before he was well known, was passing through   
    JM> customs and listed his occupation as "jewel smuggler".   
      
     Well, I guess both sexes are jewel smugglers...the guys' are below the   
   belt, and the women's are hidden higher up.    
      
    JM>   What I don't understand is with all the wide open border between   
    JM> Canada and the US (and Mexico for a lot) why smugglers would pass   
    JM> through a customs area when there is plenty of open territory   
    JM> elsewhere?   
      
     Logic?? :P   
      
    JM>   Oh, I forget to mention yesterday till I sent my post.   
      
     He's becoming.... ... ... ... ... ... ... I forget what the word is.    
      
    JM>   I was so tempted to say "No, except for the three Mexican midgets in   
    JM> the trunk" but for once wisely kept my mouth shut.   
      
     Sounds like Calvin And Hobbes, telling the police officer about the dead   
   body in the trunk.    
      
    JM>   They just checked my ID, looking around inside the car (standing   
    JM> outside) and let me go.   
        
     The cop asks the redneck who he pulled over if he had any ID. The   
   redneck replies "'Bout What??".
