Mensan She Ain't
WHEN a Tennessee teen mistook a popular Mexican cheese for a block of cocaine*, she hired a hit man to take out the home's 4 male occupants. The hit man was an undercover cop, tipped off, apparently, because the kid blabbed. Now she's facing eight murder counts and possibly decades in prison.
So much for that scholarship to Yale. Story.
*and she's not the only one...

Indeed, Bystander...the part about her being given the fake guns puts the story over the top...

I dunno. If I were given a choice between a block of cocaine and a block of cheese, I would probably take the cheese. It tastes better!

Lynne: me too. Especially if it's one of those runny, gooey, really ripe ones.
Cheese was Y's contribution today to the holiday food sign-up at work. Ypsidixit brought a moldy, smelly, utterly delicious blue cheese so rich it was like butter, and one block of havarti, and one block of creamy, yummy Gouda. Sliced up a loaf of thin-sliced rye bread and voila. Funnily enough, this item vanished with surprising speed. Several folks said nice thanks to me. So I was glad I brought (mmm) cheese.

I am also a fan of the fermented curd, in addition, of course, to being one who delights in all manifestations of the Terpsichorean muse.

That skit is no less hilarious in print than on the screen...thanks for the script, Bystander.
