The sisters, 65 and 70, seemed to be nice, friendly women who lived modest lives in their mobile home park. "I couldn't believe it," one woman says after hearing her neighbor was busted for heroin. I never would have expected that from her because she's a nice person." (Allentown Morning Call)
I didn't know that organized crime was hiring little old ladies now.

Sort of like "Arsenic And Old Lace".

Yeah, but I bet their brownies are the BEST.

Who says dealing drugs and being a nice person are mutually exclusive?

"And we're living here in Allentown..."
What a shitty photo of the alleged perps--my 10 year-old niece could take better than that with her cell phone and not get that glare!
Good one, KDP!

the economy must be worse than we all thought. they needed this as a supplemental income..

The HBO series would be called "Heroine and Old Lace."
Posted by: Torgo | Thursday, April 30, 2009 at 07:41 AM
How about the HBO title being, "All The Single Biddies"? Beyonce could sing the SHIT out of that theme song, I'm sure. If I were feeling more clever this morning, I would make up words, but I'm not, so that's all I've got. Sorry.

Torgo, more like "Heroines and Old Lace."
Get it?
Never mind...

"Not Your Granny's Needles"

How about "The Not-so-Golden Girls"

It's a pity Bea Arthur just passed away. She'd be perfect to play one of the smack grannies in that HBO miniseries.

phranqlin there is still Betty White and Rue McClannahan....they could pull it off nicely i think...:)
LOL @ all the titles...

Allentown? I missed that part. That might explain it. I lived around that area for a few months. Long story. The short version is... met someone on the interwebs, went to visit and she asked me to stay, a few months later I got a job out at Lake Powell and moved back home for a week or two before I left to go there. Left stuff at her house cause the plan was for me to move back afterwards. After, a month out at Lake Powell she suggested I should just go back to Arkansas when I got done. I sent her $50 to ship my stuff I left back. She sent one box and refused to send the other.
Guess that was a long one. Maybe I'm the God of Bad Decisions.

Screw drugs. I'll peddle nukes and bio weapons when I get old.
