That's Using Your Skull
Our border folks are really on it:
MIAMI (Reuters) - A Haitian national who packed a skull in her suitcase on a flight to Florida's Fort Lauderdale airport was charged Friday with "smuggling a human head."

U.S. prosecutors said they also charged Florida resident Myrlene Severe, who was arrested Thursday, with failing to declare the head on a customs declaration form and transporting hazardous material. The skull had "organic matter" on it, they said.

"Severe stated that she had obtained the package, which contained the human head, from a male in Haiti for use as a part of her voodoo beliefs," the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida said in a statement.
Good to know that we've got those borders secured from bomb carrying skulls.... BTW, this gal has like a $100,000 bail for her "crime". Those folks in Florida got it all under control.
