Pretty funny. You’d think they’d have found a better way to get drugs into a prison, though. Catapults are so…you know…monty python.

Wow, some people are really retarded. Heard of the Duct tape bandit? He is a local crook here that covered his head with duct tape to conceal himself while he robbed a liquor store. He still swears it wasn’t him.
