Jesse Huffman insists he didn't do it on purpose, but the toilet he left plugged after "nature called" at this border crossing in north-central Montana has him facing criminal charges.

Toole County authorities charged the 19-year-old college student from Great Falls with criminal mischief after a border agent accused him of intentionally clogging the toilet.

Huffman said the clogged piping was completely unintentional, the result of an urgent, but natural bodily function.

"I've never been arrested before or anything like that, and I get arrested for taking a dump," said Huffman, a student at Montana State University in Bozeman.

1. Didn't a prior warning refer to "objects floating in water"

as a terrorist device?

Well, they finally got their man!

3. Dangit, when is the "Star Wars" technology going to "trickle down'???

We desperately need an anti-turd missile to shoot down these toilet clogging turds before they can wreck havoc on our septic systems. Heat seeking, obviously, the missiles would have to find and break up these monsters in mid-flight.

$4 or 5 billion should be immediately awarded to defense contractors to start construction.
