Harvard instructor caught with pot in her panties, claims it was a prescription.

I know whenever I'm traveling I stick a bottle of Advil down my pants for safe keeping.

So does Mey Akashah, a Harvard University instructor, who stuck a baggie of weed in her underwear for a trip to Bermuda with her husband. When the drug sniffing dogs at the Bermudan customs caught a whiff of something special wafting off her, authorities performed a search.

Caught with her pants down ((rim-shot!)), Akashah claimed the weed in her undies was medicinal marijuana prescribed via a doctor in California. Prescribed with a stack of Twinkies and a Carona Light, I assume.

After being unable to show a doctor's prescription, Akashah went the next logical route for someone from Harvard, pulling out the classic Do you know who I am? She let Bermudan officials know she came from Harvard, that she had her PhD, so...you know...this is all very silly because everyone knows you can't arrest someone from Harvard, let alone someone with a PhD.

While Bermudan officials weren't humored, Akashah appeared to be an emotional wreck, so the magistrate claimed a conviction against Akashah would have an "overwhelming effect" on the Harvard instructor. Yeah, like killing her mellow, amiright??

Let off and back in Boston, Akashah told reporters that while she knew marijuana was illegal in Bermuda, she "responded illogically to the amount of pain I was in."

Clearly, someone doesn't have her PhD in street smarts.
