Drown In Details

Juan comes up to the Mexican border on his bicycle

He's got two large bags over his shoulders.

The guard stops him and says, “What's in the bags?”

“Sand,” answered Juan

The guard says, “We'll just see about that – get off the bike!”

The guard takes the bags and rips them apart, he empties them out and finds nothing in them but sand.

He detains Juan overnight and has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags.

The guard releases Juan, puts the sand into new bags, hefts them onto the man's shoulders, and lets him cross the border.

The next day, the same thing happens.

The guard asks, “What have you got?” “Sand,” says Juan

The guard does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand.

He gives the sand back to Juan, and Juan crosses the border on his bicycle

This sequence of events is repeated every day for a year.

Finally, Juan doesn't show up one day and the guard meets him in a Cantina in Mexico.

“Hey, Buddy,” says the guard, “I know you are smuggling something

It's driving me crazy

It's all I think about…

I can't sleep

Just between you and me, what are you smuggling?” Juan sips his beer and says, “Bicycles.”
