it's even more ironic if you've heard the song resume man by the string cheese incident...
well we asked the guy what he did for work we saw a twinkle in his eye and he gave a little smirk said, "I work right down the road, I've got a melon stand. I set up in a shady spot I sell watermelons and a little good pot and last year I made damn near thirty grand."

I like the song that goes:
Me and my friends went to dixieland Drove a big RV, with a cabinet full of mushrooms and a cooler full of beer
can't bust me cause they don't know what they found!!

The thing that blew me away was they said that the pot had a street value of $25,000 on that guy who had 10 plants...I saw the plants they got and they were pathetic looking

Yeah their figures are always way off. They probably figured the plants would produce a pound or 2 a piece.

I think they count the a plant as a pound of bud or something.

I was under the impression that they looked at plants and the harvested product differently in texas...like say an ounce or more is a felony, but it takes 20 plants or more to be a felony, I may be out of date on my knowledge of cannabis law in this state though, or maybe just completely off my kilter.

Heh...they had a real bust just a couple miles from my house last week. Here is an excerpt from the article Quote:
Kraan was gone when task force members moved in to make the arrest earlier this week, but a search warrant issued for his residence led to the discovery of 965 marijuana plants.
The plants, with a street value of more than $1 million, were found at 3367 Frisco Bay Circle, near Desert Inn Road and Buffalo Drive.
I saw pictures of this place. It was pretty cool. He had it all fixed up with cameras for remote viewing and everything. No one lived here, it was just his growing operation. The whole house was full of plants.
Here is the story from our weekend paper... link
