“Higher” Education

If you love books and drugs, you’re in luck.  The Dominican Republic is your Mecca.

Dominican authorities made a mega drug bust after intercepting several coke packets that were sewn into the lining of dictionaries that were bound for Europe.  Sorry, lovely Eurotrash people, you’ll have to deal with your techno music sans coke for a little while.

The shipment was found in the Santo Domingo post office, where it was en route to an unnamed address in Madrid, Spain.  The return address in the DR was fake (shucks, there goes your chance of stopping by for some homegrown while vacationing this winter).

Sadly, this is the third time in the past two months that drogas have been found in books on their way to Spain… and the only thing I can think of is that fact that these entrepreneurial Dominicans might find themselves better off if they were actually READING the books rather than stuffing them with ski slope material.
