A picture is worth a thousand words:
I saw this on Colbert’s show last night. It looks like Eraserhead decided to supplement his income by becoming a mule.
How could such a cunning plan fail?
Customs grew suspicious when the man stated he had severe dandruff, and yet they found no Head & Shoulders in his baggage!

And all this time I thought the term “crack head” applied to the users…
To me, this incident suggests they’ve reached it.
Past it, if they’re getting their ideas from Get Smart reruns.
China figurines which turned out to be made of cocaine, toys filled with drugs, drugs carried in a prosthetic leg or inside one’s guts… What’s surprising about this guy is that he was capable of thinking he looked normal enough to pass.
What are the laws like in Spain? Europe seems to have so many different attitudes about drugs, I can’t keep track anymore. Do countries that allow pot have more lenient attitudes toward other drugs? Will this get a slap on the wrist, or will there be hell toupee?
The police have notified the find, but not given further information. They haven’t even indicated whether the subject remains in custody, has been released or has been put on a flight back. What happens will depend on the* juez instructor* (the judge in charge of the investigation), the man’s situation (was he a tourist, a resident, papers pending, no papers at all)… since the police notice doesn’t indicate that he had a previous record, he did not; that’s also taken into account. Normally for a first offense of a non-violent crime there is no jail time.
This guy, on the other hand, could probably sneak even more coke through customs:
He was hoping the income from the drugs would cover his overhead costs.
