CLOVIS, N.M. - A call about a possible weapon at a middle school prompted police to put armed officers on rooftops, close nearby streets and lock down the school. All over a giant burrito. Someone called authorities Thursday after seeing a boy carrying something long and wrapped into Marshall Junior High. The drama ended two hours later when the suspicious item was identified as a 30-inch burrito filled with steak, guacamole, lettuce, salsa and jalapeños

Dang! That made me hungry. I'm now hankering for a burrito.
he got extra credit in a class for bringing it for the rest of the students is my understanding of the situation.
LOL.
too funny.
I would suspect that with a last name like Sakai, though, his potential exposure to guacamole would be limited. Even if he is an Iron Chef. There's no iron chef mexican/spanish after all. Only french, italian, and japanese.
If I didn't know how utterly insane these public school administrators are, I'd be SURE this article was a joke.
I wonder if this is somehow related to the kidnapping of Testaclese?

What's the maximum sentence for carrying a concealed tortilla, anyway?
30 days working the used Dodge Ram lot in Juarez. None of the trucks have wheels or batteries but you have a choice of colors.
Your screen name is "IronChefSakai"; shouldn't you know these things?
That'd be:
primer gray
primer black
rainbow
or rust???
We need a whole new set of laws to cover this potential threat!
For example:
-Burrito can only be only 18" long (except for CA and NY which only allow 12")
-Burritos can't be carred concealed without a CCW permit. (except NY and CA which doesn't allow concealed carry)
-Only one burrito over 18" can be purchased per month.
-10 day waiting period.
-Extra hot ingrediants will be classified as assault burritos.
Want to add any others?
I agree. Notice how they didn't identify who the caller was. Only "someone called authorities". What a bunch of nincompoops.
Know your vendor !! |
Drop de chalupa ... err .. BURRITO !!
"Guacamole is a mixture of avocado flesh and garlic. Any chef should know that."
and lemon juice and chopped onions. mmmm.. good;o)
The other stuff should be tomatoes, peppers, onions, and spices. Nothing else, and you can leave out any of those and it'll still be guacamole.
As I said, a lot of people eat guacamole and enjoy it, but not I.
