They were using the $20s to as wrappers for rolling spliffs.

Willie had to cancel some shows supposedly due to the flu. Wash your hands.

That would taste horrible!....................not that I would know about such things, you understand.................

[bar sin·is·ter]

I know nothing of such things myself, however, I do understand that benjamins have a milder flavor...

Nebraska has a drug tax in addition to criminal statutes. Different legal standards, more options.

Willie and Keith ought to live forever.

As in...They(feds) illegally wiretap this couple and when they know they are in possession of something illegal or money, they contact the local PD who then makes up an excuse(following too closely) to pull them over. Once the dogs alert, the game is up.

OK, It follows my line of thinking that the cops put out a BOLO on the license tag and had the officer dream up something to pull them over. I wouldn't have been surprised if they used "weaving within the lane".

I guess losing $18,000 in cash is a cost of business in the drug industry. Someone’s still not going to be happy. I wonder if the cartel will step forward to claim the cash?

As I have stated several times on this forum: Every adult resident of CA can grow 6 plants to maturity and keep the proceeds.

This couple was legal to grow 12 plants, which if done outdoors in proper conditions could result in at least 10 pounds of clean buds per plant.

60 pounds may have been only 1/2 of THIS YEAR’S crop.

“Grandma and Grandpa are coming to visit for Christmas. “

LOL

The WOD, Marijuana Front...is over. There is just no way to contain that much pot. It will flood every nook and cranny of the nation, in volume.

These folks need to stop drawing attention to themselves.

Or try another line of work.

[AppyPappy]

I am just so thankful that the police got that marijuana-smelling money off the streets. We can all sleep easily now /sarcasm

“I guess losing $18,000 in cash is a cost of business in the drug industry.”

This is CA.

These folks likely don’t know anyone in “the industry”. It’s like granma and granpa has a bumper crop of tomatoes and want to share with the kids.

You could get rich quick!

Not really, after the state taxes its quite a bit more expensive than the illegal stuff.

[jim_trent]

They had pot while driving in one direction and then had money while driving in the opposite direction. Nope, not small time dealers at all.

They have been spotted and the license plate is in the system. They need to find another way to travel other than through Nebraska.

"...This couple was legal to grow 12 plants, which if done outdoors in proper conditions could result in at least 10 pounds of clean buds per plant...."

I enjoy your extreme optimism, FRiend!

I never exceed 2 oz per plant. What am I doing wrong? Oh, living in Texas. Never mind.

Now you tell us. I had cataract surgery 8 years ago, and my wife will have cataract surgery next month.

We were told to smoke pot and not to care about blurred visions.

Dang UC docs.

“What am I doing wrong?”

Genetics and nutrition.

See this and learn:

618 pounds from 25 plants. Verified by High Times.

They look like BIG Orange trees.

Methinks they ain’t too bright but their employer(s) ain’t much brighter having these folks mule for them.
