No wonder the scientists can't find the giant squids in the wild -- they are all drug mules! Maybe this explains more about Jaques Coustou and his 'happy band of divers' than we really wanted to know.

Judging from all those packages, that was one heck of a squid!

As someone who became hopelessly addicted to that stuff, I sure like it when I read of another bust. :o)

And who can honestly say that they haven't had a magnificant sea creature up their nose. I know I have! Most normal adolescents go through a phase of stuffing great sea beasts up their nose three or four times a day, but some are attracted to it by its very illegality.
