More than 60 percent of the cartels' revenue -- $8.6 billion out of $13.8 billion in 2006 -- came from U.S. marijuana sales, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. Now, to stay competitive, Mexican traffickers are changing their business model to improve their product and streamline delivery. Well-organized Mexican cartels have also moved to increasingly cultivate marijuana on public lands in the United States, according to the National Drug Intelligence Center and local authorities. This strategy gives the Mexicans direct access to U.S. markets, avoids the risk of seizure at the border and reduces transportation costs. Unlike cocaine, which the traffickers must buy and transport from South America, driving up costs, marijuana has been especially lucrative for the cartels because they control the business all the way from clandestine fields in the Mexican mountains to the wholesale dealers in U.S. cities such as Washington. "It's pure profit," said Jorge Chabat, an expert on the drug trade at the Center for Research and Teaching in Economics in Mexico City.

The real Tuscany, as locals have been telling me over the years, is found in the dead of winter, when the crowds are thinner and the rooms, flights and restaurants are pleasantly cheaper.

Ominous

The Last Resort has a new owner, and is closed for now.

You went out and you were drinking with some very unscrupulous individuals. A couple of these guys, by your own admission, hitched a ride in the back of your pickup without you knowing. Really, Rick, how drunk were you. These same guys, according to your accounts again, opened your gate, called out your dog and then called out to you a couple of times. The neighbor heard this and told you this, why didn't they stop the guys when they entered the house or even the yard? You were in the house asleep. Rick, again, how drunk were you. \ Now let's be real. A person ought to be able to drink as much as he wants to, get as drunk as he wants to and still keep what is his. That the ideal and again, the ought. Let us consider what is. We live in a world where people don't respect other people's property and we have to realize this and take proper precaution. I keeping wondering indeed what would have happened if you had awakened. Especially if you probably could recognize the guys have drank with them all night.
