Appropos of bodypainting in a swimsuit issue, what happens when a model with a painted on "swimsuit" is submerged?

Seems a safe bet that the Cubs will be able to add the "SI Painted Model Curse" to their CV after the '05 season.

Dog Busts Owner on Marijuana Charge

GRAPEVINE, Texas - The owner of J.D. the Labrador may be wishing his dog weren't such a good retriever. Matthew Porter and two friends were playing Frisbee golf in a park Monday when a police officer who thought he smelled burning marijuana began questioning them.

As the officer was checking for outstanding warrants, J.D. waded into a nearby creek and emerged with a plastic bag containing the drug.

Porter, 25, was charged with possessing drug paraphernalia. Micah Hays, 24, was charged with marijuana possession. J.D. was turned over to the third person at the park, who faces no charges.

J.D. also faces no charges, but may have a new job opportunity.

"People have been asking if we're going to recruit the dog for police work," said Grapevine police Sgt. Todd Dearing.

"Mark didn't have that kind of relationship with the guy," La Russa said.
