I have always suggested we get into the smuggling business, this might be where I get a promotion and get a ship on the Chinese coast.
When you cut the tape off the sword's box with a boxcutter did you announce "Look at me everybody! I'm slicing!" gleefully?

You should see some of the smuggling service members do to get goodies into overseas stations and souvenirs ***cough*** cuban cigars ***cough*** and other assorted stuff back into the country. Nothing bad, just stuff that wouldn't necessarily be allowed.

i work shipping/receiving and there are many things you can do legally that are still sorta fibs in order to get things through customs. i make up fake item costs all the time simply because it would take far too long to do the research as to how much random things cost to manufacture and/or retail.

I'm in India right now.
They sell Cuban cigars in the hotel gift shop.
You think I'll be smuggling on my voyage back to the States tonight?
Oh, yeah, baby... oh, yeah.

just send some cubans to Holland for me ok 
don't quite feel like paying to go to cuba(although a vacation is needed
) and taking em back with me...
guess i'll stick with Oud Kampen(dutch cigars). easier to come by(i know... no smuggler's instinct
)
