Puppy, you know this kid? (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/ap/20040323/ap_on_re_us/kindergartner_marijuana&e=4)

I've heard of people selling oregano while claiming its marijuana. Maybe this kid thought he could get some oregano by asking for pot? :D

The second story in that article refered to a kid bringing "..crack cocaine that police said was worth up to $10,000 to his preschool class and showed it to classmates, saying it was flour." However, crack does not look anything like flour. I wonder if it was powder cocaine and this is a case of the media attaching the word 'crack' to all instances of cocaine?

My thoughts exactly. Powder ain't the same as a rock. So I've heard, I mean. Anyway, the media screwed that one up, I think.

Gentlemen GENTLEMEN! The propper term is "Turbo". Crack is so.....1980. Turbo sounds much much more elegant.

As to the whole show and tell thing. Remember:

Jeremy spoke in, cla-haaaaeeeyassss tuh daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Or in spanish:

Jose spoke in-gles todayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Yeah, and the "it could have killed these kids". Yeah, maybe, if they had a pipe, torch, steel wool, etc... Now, if they miss spoke and it was cocain, then, OK, a "here Johnny, smell this" could have killed someone.

BTW - My flour is in rock form. Is that bad?

[laters]

Well, they could've eaten it, in which case the statement rings true. In the meantime, about your lithified flour... You could mix it with mortar and cow dung to make kick-a** cement. Woohoo!

On a lighter note, how in the hell do you know about steel wool techniques?

And on a serious note, my flour has weevils.

Teachers realized it was cocaine and called authorities.
