When southern Florida resident Nathan Radlich's house was
burgled recently, thieves ignored his wide screen plasma TV,his VCR, and even left his Rolex watch. What they did take,however, was "a generic white cardboard box filled with agrayish-white powder." (That's at least is the way thepolice report described it.) A spokesman for the FortLauderdale police said, "that it looked similar to highgrade cocaine and they'd probably thought they'd hit the big time." Later, Nathan stood in front of the numerous TV camerasand pleaded with the burglars: "Please return the crematedremains of my sister, Gertrude. She died three years ago."
> The next morning, the bullet-riddled corpse of a localdrug dealer known as Hoochie Pevens was found on Nathan'sdoorstep. The cardboard box was there too; about half ofGertrude's ashes remained. Scotch taped to the box was thisnote which said: "Hoochie sold us the bogus blow, so we wasted Hoochie. Sorry we snorted your sister. No hard feelings. Have a niceday."
