A funny read!
If you are considering a marijuana offense to raise cash, rob a bank instead. The time spent in prison will be much less. Crimes involving marijuana are ‘very serious offenses.’ Just ask these guys.
These are tales of adventure detailing multiple smuggling operations. Some successful, some not. Tales of the perfect off-loads involving multi-tons of pot—tales of screw-ups, complete with lost aircraft, lost pot, and close calls with the infamous DEA.
A wild party lasting fourteen years until the dreaded, “They got us!”
No one was hurt—no one was injured—no one was killed—there were no victims.
Then why did they put these guys in prison?
If you are curious about the true story of the pot smuggling business, here it is—and it’s damned funny. Good times were had by all—until prison.
That was not much fun.
5.0 out of 5 stars If David Sedaris had written 'Catcher in the Rye'..this would be it, June 30, 2012
This review is from: Shoulda Robbed a Bank (Kindle Edition)
I have never smoked pot in my life...nor do I ever care to.
I read about this book in numerous Huffington Post comments. Thought I would read it because I know nothing about marijuana or the people involved with it. I am ecstatic that I did. Funny, Funny, Funny!!!
The chapters are like short stories. Stories about unloading boats with helicopters, close encounters with law enforcement, traveling through the jungles of South America. The chapter about the author's first time smoking marijuana made me feel like I was with him...coughing.
All of the characters were just a group of loveable, nice guys and girls. Not what I had been raised to believe...hysterical maniacs high on pot bent on death and mayhem. They were nothing like that.
If you have ever read any of David Sedaris' books, and like them...you will love Shoulda Robbed a Bank.
And the crazy things happening reminded me of Holden Caufield in 'Catcher in the Rye' and the way he staggered through life.
The way the words are put together are like nothing I have ever heard. I am sure I will use many of the sayings found in this book just to dazzle my friends. A terrific read. I love this book.
