CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa -- A man who police say was caught with two pounds of marijuana allegedly told officers the drug wasn't his because he stole it.Well, yes: Isn't possession nine-tenths of the law?
Linn County Attorney Harold Denton said it doesn't matter how Bradley Robison, 18, got the marijuana -- only that he had it. "If you steal it, you steal it and you possess it," Denton said. "It's a double whammy."
Laboring in the obscurity he so richly deserves for two decades now, your crusty correspondent sporadically offers his views on family, law, politics and money. Nothing herein should be taken too seriously: If you look closely, you can almost see the twinkle in Curmudgeon's eye. Or is that a cataract?

thanks for the kind words of advice this morning and this chuckle! bee
