random tidbits from the DEA

I watched FOX news again tonight. It’s because they re-assure me that everything is ooookay. Usually they do stories that assure me we’re morally, politically, and militarily superior to the world, and god bless america, the sun never sets on the American Empire.

Sometimes, however, they do stories that open my eyes to the sad state of the world. For instance, tonight I learned that kids can learn about drugs on the internet. I presume that before the internet, no one did drugs. At the end of the story they told us that the best information about drugs was available from the DEA. Then they directed us to dea.gov. Now, I don’t know that this is the best drug information there is, but the DEA museum has certainly the best drug-enforcement related gift shop I’ve ever seen. It’s also the only drug-enforcement themed museum I’ve ever seen. Unless you count the museum in Florida with the guilletines and electric chairs, but that’s not really the same.

What do you think my sister-in-law would do to us if we got our niece a DEA teddy bear?

Some of the items, however, are a little strange:

Golf Divit Repair Tool
Perfect for carrying in a golf bag or pocket. High quality die cast tool featuring black imprint of the DEA badge and letting. $3.00 each

Doesn’t that seem oddly specialized?
