[pct-l] new cheap bear can
If the inventer of this "stealth" bear can really wants to impress this
list, he'll do the following.
1. Stuff the bear can with a few ounces of good quality hemp.
2. Try to make it past some drug sniffing dogs.
I have witnessed these dogs picking up the scent of contraband from within
welded, sealed, metal canisters..
And bears have a much more sensitive nose..
But, if you sooo sure.....please, take my Pepsi challenge..
We'll all come visit you on weekends..;-)
