tell me a story, make me laugh or cry

When I was 5 a friend of my dad's found several bales of marijuana washed up on the shore down in the Bahama's. He called my dad to help him smuggle it. So, dad packed up the family and went down to the Carribean to sail around for 6 months playing decoy.

Well, one day we see the Coast Guard and we take off like we're running for it, and of course they come after us. They search the entire ship (which wasn't that big, just a 29 footer) and find mom&dad's personal stash and dad's rifles.

The Coast guard gets hysterical screaming, "OMG! You have guns! You were going to shoot us! How dare you have guns! Why do you have guns?!?"

And my dad looks up at him and says (completely deadpan) "Uh...it's the Carribean....Ya got pirates."

The dudes face practically melted off and he turned real red because he had to admit, "Well actually, uh, yeah...we do." They impounded our boat for three days and then let us go.

thanx stoney girl for the giggle

O.k., here goes:

There once was a man,
The man was gay,
He slept with a man,
Than he shot himself.

I grew a pot plant when I was twelve (1975)for my Dad who wanted to see what it looked like because he'd read in field and stream that Quail like the seeds. So having no freaking idea of what I was doing I gave it a shot and grew the plant, it got a little too long so I took it outside and put it on the tailgate of his truck for some sun...... well later I went to get it and the truck was gone! My Dad was out driving around Boise, ID with a 3 foot tall pot plant on his tailgate, and he had no idea. He happened at that time to go through the park where all the "hippies" hung out and they were screaming and a whooping and yelling Right on old man!! He didn't know why until he got out and saw it there. Needless to say He was not a Happy Dad when he arrived home. But it's still funny as shit to me. He is a card carrying NRA republican. So I like to think it opened his mind a little to take the plant for a cruise.

any more marijuana tales?
