Denton County sheriff's narcotics investigators arrested three and seized $1 million of hydro-marijuana in connection with the bust outside of the W Hotel last week. (Hydro is top grade stuff, for those of you unfamiliar with "street terminology.") The drugs were hidden inside locked compartments of a Winnebago, which was finally discovered after investigators found the key to those compartments hidden in a tea bag.

Complicated story. Was the Winnebago in front of the W Hotel? Or the dealers just in front of the W Hotel? And why Denton County Sheriffs? No big deal, just curious.If you can say in front of the W Hotel, you could also say in front of the new WFAA Ch. 8 News Studios or even in front of the AA Center. What a headline, "$1 Million worth of Pot seized in front of Ch.8 studios!". That would cause/be a ruckus!

I agree with Russ that a better headline could turn this story up to 11.

Alexander Troup, that new profile picture was taken from the Hollywood sign, ( the Hollywood Hills) in Los Angeles at 6:30am, sunrise. Me and some notables climbed that hill and touched almost ALL the HOLLYWOOD sign letters. Needless to say that was a very, very, very long night. Look at that Italian jacket and fat Rolex. Those were the days! Taken from the front of the big letter "L" looking downwards towards the LA metroplex. (now what was the topic?) :)

For those scratching their head at Clay's comment, methinks Johnny Chimpo is what he was after - from Super Troopers:
It's really funny, Cap! It's Afghanistanimation.

LMAO - I vote for either number one or number five honkeybot!
So, if someone offers you $15,000 to drive a vehicle across the country, do you ask questions?
Doyle, I think Clay was just trying to be more like me and step outside of his relevancy box.
