That's A Spicy Meatball

Eight tonnes of hashish seized off the coast of Spain, apparently bound for Britain.

Sigh. I wish I had eight ton of hashish. Street value, 22 million pounds. I would sell half and use the rest to slowly embalm myself through a steady smoking treatment.

Mmmm... unlikely jerky.

Actually, jerky is dried. But you get the idea.

hypothetically, (since I hate boats) if I got a boat and lived in international waters, would I be able to grow, use and sell drugs with impunity? Or are there some sort of rules that govern international waters?

Reminder: New episode of The Simpsons on tonight at 7.30 on TV3.

Up to 200 miles out from the coast of a country is, to a certain extent, subject to the laws of that country. Outside of that there are various laws that apply. So ya, you'd get in trouble sorry!

What about if I went into space? Are there laws in space? I'm guessing not, since it would be too difficult to police. You could claim that the hydro unit was an experiment of some kind.
