The phrase “sausage smuggler” suggests something a little more risque than what was probably intended. Or maybe that’s just caused by its similarity to the phrase “budgie smuggler” which is a euphemism for a man wearing tight swimming trunks.

On the other hand, “your nefarious, meat craving ways” makes me wonder if the innuendo may not have been deliberate.

Ahhh… ambiguity; you make all things possible.

Wow, and Chile confiscates every lentil, pecan and clove of garlic that crosses its border. Would make for boring photos, I bet.

Fun article! And any word on how they saw the head in the soap? The things I wonder.

Hilarious!

Let me share a little story. A friend came over yesterday to show me his new m15 carbine, which he bought in order to preempt any restriction on gun sales.

We tried out the gun and he told me a funny story – his girlfriend’s mom recently visited him and his girlfriend in New York. His girlfriend is from Ireland, so the Mom was very excited to shop in NYC.

When the trip ended, she needed an extra bag, and so, in a rush to catch the plane, the girlfriend grabbed an old bag out of my friend’s closet, stuffed her Mom’s purchases inside, and sped off to JFK.

Turns out the old bag had about 20 shotgun shells inside. Whoops. Way to endear yourself to your future mother-in-law, homey.
