And about the "drug residue" on money... money rubs together with other money -- something like 90% of all US money has detectable cocaine on it. Once the Canadian border guards tried that on me and my wife entering Canada, "oh look, your money shows traces of cocaine" and I responded immediately "so does the money in your wallet, lets test it.. now". After that they were a lot more cordial and I was a lot more friendly.

To this day, I figure we were singled out because we're an asian-white couple and just didn't fit their "usual look of that sort" template (early 1990s). No problems since then though.
I'm going to have to try that if I ever end up in that situation.
