You Can't make this stuff up!!

When  southern Florida resident Nathan Radlich's house was burglarized

recently, the thieves ignored his wide screen plasma TV, his VCR, and even left his

Rolex  watch. What they did take, however, was a white box filled with a

grayish-white  powder. (That's the way the police report described it.)

A  spokesman for the Fort Lauderdale police said that it looked similar to

high grade cocaine and they'd probably thought they'd hit the big  time.

Later, Nathan stood in front of numerous TV cameras and pleaded with the

burglars:  'Please return the cremated remains of my sister, Gertrude. She

died three years ago.'

The next morning, the bullet-riddled corpse of a local drug dealer known

as Hoochie Pevens was found on Nathan's doorstep. The white box was there

too; about half of Gertrude's ashes remained. Scotch taped to the box was

this note which said: Hoochie sold us the bogus blow, so we wasted Hoochie.

Sorry we snorted your sister. No  hard feelings. Have a nice day.

And you thought California was the land of fruits and nuts.
