Always fun to watch someone pick okra for the first time.

They say the dance "Twist" was developed watching this

Hate to see what these cops would have done with Texas Star Hibiscus.

Steamed okra is much better than boiled.

Eating fried okra is like eating snot with boogers in it.

Right you are. Tastes like grass too. One of the few things I won't eat.

Each one of those cops should be required to eat a cereal bowl full of *boiled*, unseasoned okra. No salt allowed. No tomatoes. No cornbread. Just boiled okra.

the depth of knowledge amongst these guys....is really quote stunning

couldn't someone have double checked before....commencing on a raid?

I doubt it's about MJ. Something else triggered the raid. Whatever it was, they let him know via snide remarks.

It's probably over some dispute with the county, like a formal protest of property taxes.

‘Patrol Capt. Kermit Stokes says the plants did have characteristics similar to marijuana.’

This too easy but I can’t resist.

The Capt. is as intelligent as a frog.
