What does Mr. Potato's generously cavernous dorsal facial component storage compartment and glow-stick spinning ravers have in common?

So obvious, yet so funny.

...

Okay, now for some witty one-liners.

GO!

Drugs hidden in Mr. Potato Head
Australian officials say nearly 10.5 ounces of ecstacy inside toy

SYDNEY, Australia - Customs officers discovered nearly 10.5 ounces of ecstasy tablets hidden inside a Mr. Potato Head toy sent to Australia from Ireland, the agency said Thursday.

Upon opening the parcel, the officers were greeted with the smiling face of the popular children's toy, which features a potato-like head and removable facial features. But when they removed a panel from the back of the toy, the officers found 10.34 ounces of ecstasy in a plastic bag.

The Australian Customs Service referred the matter to federal police, but no arrests were immediately made, the agency said. The maximum penalty for importing drugs to Australia is life imprisonment.

"Whilst this is one of the more unusual concealments that we have seen in recent times, people need to be aware that Customs officers are alert to unusual and often outlandish methods of concealment," Customs Director Post Karen Williams said.

Personally I've seen lots of things shipped in odd things in many stuffed animals to just a rolled up joint put into an envelope.
