SMUGGLERS RUN Jose arrives at the Mexican border on his bike with 2 huge bags over his shoulders. The guard stops him and asks: Whats in the bags? Senior, Its only sand. replies Jose. Sand??? Well, well just see about that - get off the bike! The guard takes the bags, rips them open, empties them out and finds nothing in them...except sand. Detaining Jose overnight, the sand is analyzed, but only to discover it is in fact simply sand. Jose is released, the sand is put into new bags and placed on Joses shoulders, and he is let across the border. Next day, same thing happens. The guard asks: What you got there? Sand, says Jose. A thorough examination of the bags again shows there to be nothing but sand, and subsequently Jose is allowed to ride across the border. For a whole year this continues until one day Jose doesnt show up, and the guard discovers him in a Cantina in Mexico. Hey, Bud, says the guard, I know youre smuggling something. For a year its driven me crazy. Its all I can think about... I cant get sleep, the kids are getting neglected...heck, even the dog senses Im beginning to lose it! Between you and me, just what are you smuggling? Jose sips his drink, smiles and replies: Bicycles... PERSONAL NOTE: Sometimes distractions blind us to the obvious. Think about it.
