Coke hides better when it’s all hidden

In MORE cocaine-related news …

Carlos Valenzuela was driving around Texas the other day, minding his own business, when he forgot to signal a turn at an intersection. For this minor oversight, he was pulled over, and should have got off with a warning/ticket.

That’s how the story would’ve ended if he hadn’t had three giant bricks of cocaine inside his car, two of which were hidden inside an Xbox 360 console. The third was lying in the passenger seat. Whoops.

He was caught with 1.8 kilograms of cocaine, and has been charged with “manufacture or delivery of a controlled substance”.

Now, I’m not a drug czar or drug kingpin or a drug magnate or even a drug janitor; however, I’d think that if you’re going to transport that much nose candy, you’d at least do a really good job of hiding ALL of the drugs, much less being meticulously aware of how you’re driving.

Snakes be trippin’

Our animal foes are going after our infrastructure once again. As it starts to heat up, the hard-working citizens of Oklahoma City rely on electricity to keep them cool, and one snake figured that out.

The suicidal snake crawled into an electrical substation and somehow managed to knock out power for 14,000 homes. The snake’s worst mistake was going through with the plan in the middle of the night during a rainstorm, when few people were awake and many would have attributed to outage to something other than an attack on our sovereignty over the planet.
