Was going to say....I could put a million dollars worth of coke in a coffee can...why use a submarine?:D

This is really funny though...when we were bored and bitter underway, ok...pretty much all the time...we used to joke about how easy it would be for us to buy an old diesel boat and smuggle drugs...

I wonder if its some friends of mine!:D:eek:

Come over here and say that...I'll take my article 90 and article 128 all in one crack. An article 114 would be cool with me, and go ahead and add a 134 because I probably deserve it, but I don't know why yet.

Most ASW detections are visual - interesting nonetheless.

Yeah, I was going to say that there's probably not one piece of ASW gear in the Customs bird, too. But BZ on them getting 'em.

$352 million worth of cocaine

Um, I know just by the sheer nature that it's in the press, the facts are jacked up, but I'm not coming up w/ the same math they did:

1 bale = about 20 kilos
11 bales = 220 kilos
1 kilo = about $20000

220 * $20000 = $4400000 = $4.4 million

Even if you make that a street value (multiply by about 4, last I heard), that's still only $16+ million.

Or did I forget to carry a one? I'm always doing that...

One bale is 227 kilos...and that's uncut. That's the extra zero and then some...

Not the ones we always got. They were just about always twenty 1-Kilo packages that weighed somewhere around a kilo. I understand the uncut, that's why I added the multiplier. Yeah, I know it can be cut more, but that usually happens after it hits the streets.

They hand it out the first day of TBS. When they graduate then they get the real deal.
