More news from the war on drugs

A couple days ago I mentioned how the war on drugs has forced hard working mules to find other lines of work. This has had tragic results. Remember a few weeks ago when "splashing sounds" foiled the otherwise brilliant work of the fish smuggler? Well, her twin wanted to go to Russia. (That only sounds like the set-up to an unbelievably bad joke. It is actually the set-up to an unbelievably true moment of stupidity. Except, of course, to the best of my knowledge these folks are not, in fact twins. Except in intellect.)

And not only did she want to go to Russia, she wanted to take some parrots with her. Aware of the problems that could arise should the parrots choose to speak at an inconvenient moment she taped their beaks shut. Wise choice.

Too bad she forgot to tape their wings...one can only imagine how much noise is made by the flapping wings of a parrot or 2....or 9....
