Culture: Pot found on Lil Wayne’s tour bus. No duh, Officer McObvious.

  • Do you guys even know who you’re dealing with? U.S. Border Patrol agents stopped Weezy’s tour buses in Texas today as he was headed for a tour stop in Mexico. Pot was found on two of the buses. In other news, if you freeze water inside a tray, it makes ice cubes! And if you pull that tray out of the freezer, the ice (eventually) melts! source

Biz, U.S.: Everybody’s favorite ponzi schemer, R. Allen Stanford, in custody

  • He surrendered to FBI agents while hanging at hs gf’s place. Stanford, who’s on the hook for $8 billion in freaking fraud, was arrested last night in the case. According to his attorney, Dick DeGuerin, here’s how it went down: “Federal agents in black SUVs surrounded his girlfriend’s house this afternoon, and just sat there. I told him to walk out and introduce himself. So he did, and he asked them, ‘If you’ve got a warrant, take me into custody. If you don’t, I’m going to Houston.’ And they did, so they arrested him.” He’ll be in court today. source
