METH LAB! More Semantics...

Quick, what do you think of when someone says "meth lab?" Walter White in a sterilized warehouse? The image one gets from television, Intervention and Law & Order, is of a filthy kitchen with pots cooking, putting out corrosive vapors.

How about a 20 ounce soda bottle?

That's a "mobile methamphetamine lab" according to police and the news media. Couple faces meth charges weeks after release from jail, via WLKY, Louisville.

Naturally, upon finding a coke bottle in the car, the entire building was evacuated.

The locals got all het up, too:

"I just kept getting worked up. My heart is still racing over the whole thing," said William Smith, who lives in the apartment complex.

Is meth made from nitroglycerin? How is it that this "lab," small enough to fit into the pocket of a pair of cargo pants, can endanger an apartment building from the parking lot?

Police later found two more "labs" in the couple's hotel room.

Remember:  "Meth Lab"="Poison" and "Explosion." "Meth Lab" also equals "Walter White's industrial chemical warehouse" and "Coke bottle with 20 Sudafeds and brake fluid."
