Fed Agents from Texas Bust 639 Lbs of Cocaine

HOUSTON, Texas -- More than 679 pounds of cocaine, worth over $9 million, were seized with the assistance of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Office of Air and Marine agents operating off the southern coast of Texas. 

Agents aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft alerted Nicaraguan authorities of a suspicious "go-fast vessel in the Caribbean Sea south of Corn Island," CPB reported in a press release. Corn Island lies about 70 kilometers east of Nicaragua. 

Officials in Nicaragua responded to CBP's alert, and discovered 11 bales of drugs on the vessel, as well as eight additional bales that were thrown overboard. According to CBP, three individuals were arrested during the bust. They were recovering firearms aboard the vessel at the time of the large seizure.

The eye in the sky wins again. 639 lbs of blow is a pretty big deal. These damn political lobbyists need to learn how to do their fundraising a little better.

Take notice

I've gotten several emails recently from a particular group of people who don't spell, punctuate, or try to sound intelligent at all as they try and hurt my feelings. I've appreciated your witty banter and now I'm responding. Apparently, they think I'm a racist because of my white skin, a terrorist because I support our Military, and a supporter of animal cruelty because I enjoy harvesting venison and swine to feed my family. Who knew right? Guys, you're going to need a better script for online trolling if you want succeed at it. What's the Gov paying online shills like you these days, minimum wage?

To you shit heads I say this: If you think you have the testicular fortitude to stand in front of me and bump your pole smoker, I'll arrange a meeting. You may wish to notify next of kin before you start your pilgrimage as well. So, with that being said, advance from this point at your own risk. 

My position remains...

Engage the line of attack or get off of it. 

Massive alligator killed behind house at Rayburn, suspected in killing neighborhood pets

A massive alligator, which is suspected in the disappearance of several dogs and cats in the area, was killed on Tuesday evening when it came out of the water and was found behind a house on Wingate Drive in Rayburn Country.

According Gary Pullen, who is also a sergeant with the Jasper Police Department, the dinosaur era creature had been spotted numerous times over the last 6 months lingering in a cove behind his house. Pullen said a neighbor’s dog recently disappeared, and others in the neighborhood said that they, also, had lost pets.

I've been seeing huge gators up that way while fishing for years. No surprise here. I'm just glad it was handled before a kid got snatched up.
