"Really? Really."

Inspired by SNL's take on the Michael Vick drug-smuggling case in which he (allegedly) carried weed through airport security, these smugglers have taken it to the next step by actually fracturing a smuggler's leg and then making a cocaine cast. Sneaky and perhaps a touch brilliant (with bonus points for the actual fractures), the crooks were in part foiled by suspicion raised when scanners discovered other drugs in their belongings, including a six-pack of beer that was full of Coke, and not the bubbly kind.

Ok, if you're going to try to sneak drugs through security, don't you think you should at least adhere to the limited-ounce rule? At what point did they think, "hey, no one will check this six-pack of liquid." It'd be like smuggling fake money in a 2-liter bottle then being shocked that the 2-liter couldn't make it through security.

I feel safer, and yet not.
