The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Harry, dude i'm telling you there are easier ways to get the good stuff, you don't need to be the cheese kingpin :lol:



i kid you not, this is a news cliping

PHOENIX - Puzzled U.S. border police arrested a Mexican smuggler with 88 pounds of cheese hidden in a special compartment in his truck, police said Friday.

Customs and Border Protection spokesman Roger Maier said officers at the port of entry in Columbus, N.M., referred a Chevrolet pickup for a routine secondary examination on Wednesday.

Officers using an X-ray machine saw the outline of 16 bulky packages stashed in a secret compartment behind the seat, which they initially believed were packets containing illicit drugs.


"Generally if you see something (with the X-ray machine), you expect it to be narcotics, but this turned out to be cheese," Maier told Reuters by telephone.

Officers regularly impound drugs including marijuana, heroin and cocaine at border crossings from Mexico, although Maier said the smuggled cheese haul was unusual.

"It looks like it was destined for people who wanted a taste of the old country," he added.

Police arrested the 38-year-old driver, seized the cheese and confiscated the truck because he failed to declare his cargo.

Just when you think you have the whole WORLD figured out, someone has to go and start smuggling cheese into the country!!! And then on top of that they actually ARRESTED this guy. Is it really a crime not to declare cheese?

Oh yeah, taxes. Didn't we (the settlers of our - uh MY - (no disrecpect to the canadian, european, or otherwise not Us citizens among the readers - country I mean) pour some tea or expresso into the ocean once to get rid of taxes? Something about representation?

Oh Yeah, Texas. We are represented by Texas.:lol:

Like how I brought that around? Unplanned.

My first thought is that perhaps it was a test run.

I'm thinking that if he had made it through untouched,
there might have been something else in that hidden compartment on his next trip over the border.
