Maybe, kinda like taking cocaine to Miami?
Hopefully the fine of $30,000 was J and not US!
Unbelievable!
It was J$. Another analogy would be like bringing Irish Whiskey to Boston...Quote:

I live in Southie aka South Boston, it's like a one day Mardi Gras. Best St. Patty's day story, there was a 4 story building being gutted on Broadway (the parade route). Some townies (think Matt Damon) breached the front door, put up a velvet rope and charged $5 a head for a byob party . The cop that told me the story said there must have 300 people in the building when they were called by the neighbors to clear it.Quote:

You can't fix stupid.
Exactly, and this woman is really broken! As easy as she got off with a +/- $2,000us fine for drug trafficking, I don't think she will learn anything from it.Quote:

Simply not true anymore. The quality has changed in the last 5 years. No seeds. Trimming the buds. Knock ya on yer @$$ $hit.
If my math is correct, J$30,000 is about US$200. I'd say that's a far cry better than 30 days in a Jamaican prison. She just might have to pass on a couple of excursions this trip.
Boy did I miss calculate that! That makes it so much worse. A laughable penalty for something so stupid.Quote:
