FORGET WHEATIES, THESE FROSTED FLAKES HAVE A NICE, PRICEY, COCAINE COATING
So I use the phrase at least several times of year. What did you have on your Wheaties? You know, when someone has too much energy, or seems to perform at a much higher than usual level.

Sure, I loved them something fierce when I was a kid. I mean, sugar!

This particular parcel came under the nose of Bico, no relation to Peter Gabriel. Bico is a dog who smells out and finds drugs, working with the US Customs and Border Protection agency. His nose knew this parcel as a suspicious item a few weeks ago, on February 13th.
