You just can't make this stuff up.

========================



A 23-year-old Aurora man who did not want his marijuana plants to get cold set two late-night bonfires in his backyard, leading authorities right to the illegal plants, police said.

An Aurora police officer on routine patrol saw two large bonfires burning in the backyard of Daniel A. Selmon’s home in the 800 block of Robert Street in Aurora about 2:45 a.m. Saturday, a release from police said.

When the officer went to investigate, he saw what appeared to be three large marijuana plants growing in a corner of the yard. He later learned that Selmon set the bonfires in an attempt to keep the plants warm since the nights were getting colder, police said.

Police took the plants, which weighed about 6.5 pounds, and charged Selmon with felony possession of cannabis and misdemeanor production of cannabis.

Police did not know the street value of the marijuana.

Stupid should have it's own mandatory sentencing. I say 20 years to life. Screw the Cannabis conviction. He should go up on charges of utter stupidity.

Only in Aurora would someone be this stupid, which just so happens to be on the southern end of my very county. In fact, our foolish grower is still sitting in the county jail:

Lifes a bitch.
When your stupid it's really a bitch.

Lifes a bitch.
When your stupid it's really a bitch.

Or as my long-suffering oldest brother says, "Life's a bitch. When you're stupid, you marry the bitch." We keep reminding him that if they get a divorce we get to keep her and he has to go. She loves the old bastard. I don't know why.

So is he too stupid to realize why he's happy? Sounds like Bliss to me.
