SURFBOARD SHIPMENT

A freight handler for an airline, while unloading a plane at the Honolulu International Airport, noticed that a surfboard that had been shipped from California was damaged.
Being an ardent surfer himself, he knew that the owner would be upset so he notified the claims agent of the airline.
When the claims agent inspected the surfboard, he discovered that it had been hollowed out and a package of narcotics had been inserted and covered over with a coating of fiberglass.
When the surfer showed up to claim his surfboard, he was arrested on a charge of receiving illegal drugs.
