bizarre sniffing ....

"Mom, I find it interesting that you refer to the Weekly World News as 'THE PAPER.' 'THE PAPER' usually contains facts."
 
bah, I clicked the link before I saw what it linked to.

In the grocery store last week, Weekly World News said that oil has been found on the moon. Oil that would render Mid East oil obsolete and cause gas prices to plunge to 13 cents per gallon. I can't wait.

edit:

By the time a bill reaches you, it has passed through thousands of hands -- and in all likelihood, a few noses as well. Some trace amounts of drugs on paper money could just be dust that collects on it while it's in the possession of someone guilty of possession. Most of the residue, however, comes from drug snorters' inhaler of choice: Money rolled up like a straw and inserted into the nose.

"Some bills are so riddled with cocaine that we can't chemically clean them adequately -- every year, at least $10 million in paper currency has to be taken out of circulation and destroyed for that reason," says the Treasury insider.
Yeah, and those same bills are saturated with dried up butt sweat. I wonder if that gets you high.
 
It's true that a fairly significant percentage of bills are contaminated with cocaine and whatnot, but contaminated can mean one or two particles that happened to stick to a machine sorting bills. They're purposely making it sound like it's tons of cocaine when in fact it's not enough to detect without special equipment.
