What a great article that reiterates what we’ve been preaching for a while now. We all know that good causes of green outweigh any negative “assumptions” that people have about it. But for some reason, we still consider a plant that is grown naturally illegal? Does not make sense to us.  The pic below is of Jessica Alba doing the handy-dandy!

Why is marijuana illegal? Why is it illegal when far more dangerous drugs, like alcohol and tobacco, are legal? Despite any hesitations you may have about marijuana, the research proving that it is hardly dangerous is in. And it means something.

Sure, marijuana can make you lazy and lethargic. But so can a big meal. Sure, it can make you hear, see, or feel things in a new way, but I think most of us know that alcohol does the same thing. Except alcohol tends to bring out violence in a lot of people, extreme behavior, and cigarettes cause cancer…

My point is that it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that something is up with the legalization of marijuana, regardless of whether or not that rocket scientist smokes him/herself.

The state of California is catching on to the BS surrounding the case of marijuana and they have long been standing against it. Leading the way in legalizing marijuana for medicinal reasons, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that California is now trying to make marijuana legal for everyone.

A new initiative has been constructed that could easily end up in the November ballot. This initiative will allow for the ‘drug’ to be sold to anyone at any place that sells alcohol. It’s called The Inalienable Rights Enforcement Initiative. There are pieces of it online, and you know what? I think they’re totally right here.

With all of the life-sucking drugs that are available legally, it’s hard for me to believe that we’re a progressive country when we can’t come to terms with marijuana. Anyone else with me…and California?

Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps, who’s been hitting the water bong more than he’s been hitting the water, snatched up another key endorsement this week. Doritos, breakfast of champion smokers, tokers and jokers, reported this week that Phelps will be endorsing its delicious products.

At a recent press conference, Phelps acknowledged Doritos are the key to his dope-smoking regimen. “Dude,” Phelps said, with his mouth full of Nacho Cheese Doritos. “Dude. These are good.” Team Phelps spokesperson Harvey “Cheech” Meredith said that Phelps only endorses products he believes in and that the snack food is instrumental in getting through the day.

“Michael needs Doritos when he’s going for the gold,” said Meredith. “Colombian gold or otherwise.” Meredith explained how critical those chips are to a strenuous olympic swimming routine. 

“Michael takes two laps in the pool, two tokes from the pipe and two handfuls from the Doritos bag,” Meredith said. “It’s
consistency that makes a champion.”

“Dude,” Phelps said. “These are good.” A whole line of snack food products have lined up to win the endorsement of the pot head’s new watery hero, including Krispy Kreme donuts, Keebler cookies and Hostess Ho Hos.

Did anyone watch the oscars last night? Thoughts? We did catch a little of it and thought it was super boring and fuckin stupid. No song? No Dance? No Crazy over-the-top props… The Oscars were an EPIC FAIL. Shame on the producers of the show to put together 3 hours worth of useless crap. I want my 3 hours back. To make it even worse; (or better) I was HIGH. Everyone knows that shit is funny when your high; but the OSCARS could’nt make me laugh. And when you’re high, time goes by slowly so the Oscars really felt like it was 7 hours long. I want my 7 hours back. The only person that did live upto Oscar calibar was WOODY HARRELSON. He sported a Burberry Tux made of HEMP. Yes, you read that right. He sported a 100% HEMP MADE TUX from BB London! Awesome. He proudly supports the cause of legalization of the ‘good stuff’ Way to go Harrel….

As the clock winds down to the start of 2010 Winter Olympics in British Columbia, Canada, we have look at one of their heroes from 1998 Winter Olympics: Ross Rebagliati.

The gold medal winner in the first ever Olympic snowboarding competition, Rebagliati is a long-standing member of British Columbia’s legendary cannabis community. Rebagliati has been called everything from “hero” to “pot head”, and to many Canadians, he is both. Rebagliati’s gold medal was threatened by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for trace levels of marijuana found in his system during routine post-competition urine tests. The ensuing controversy brought out sympathy for the rogue slope-slider from unexpected quarters. Many once hard-line anti-pot people were heard to be muttering “Just give him the medal, it’s only pot!”.

Being told of a failed drug test is a nightmare for any athlete. “To hear I had some kind of issue with my drug test put me into a cold sweat,” said Ross Rebagliati, who won the first gold medal in snowboarding at the 1998 Nagano Games. Rebagliati was stripped of the medal because of the positive test, then had it returned after officials realized marijuana was not on the list of banned substances at the time. We tried acquiring the list of banned substances but so far the Olympic Commitee has not responded to our request.

SO li’l wayne was in the news again this month all for the same reason i.e. marijuana. First he couldn’t sell his apartment because it smelled like weed and not even the presence “hot rap looking video girls” in bikini’s could sway the buyers decision to buy the apartment AND now U.S. Border Officials have charged Li’l Wayne an his entourage with marijuana possession after dogs sniffed some marijuana on his tour buses. Big Surprise is what I say … compounding his misery was that the border guards detained him an in turn he had to cancel his scheduled performance that night. Sucks to be him…. now it got me thinking if I was a multi-millionaire grammy winning recording artist then why not enjoy my free time by indulging in some herbs … am not harming anyone nor am I a public nuisance … atleast its  better than getting smashed on alcohol an making a public embarrassment of sorts worthy of tabloids …. He is scheduled to appear in court over this charge … if he was Canadian or an European citizen then a simple logic would apply: marijuana found on the buses divided by (number of people present times vehicles involved) and if the result was insignificant then guess what more often than not Li’l wayne an his entourage would just be let go with a slap on the wrist ….

Arguably one of the best shows on the telly right now, Entourage has everything that one can ask for. Hot steamy sex scenes, celebrity guest appearances, expletives an a feel good story of an unknown making it big in Hollywood. Perhaps one of the best cameos in the show was by actor Val Kilmer. He plays an eccentric drug dealer that grows marijuana on his property an it makes for a very entertaining watch …

Everyone knows that Grammy Winning & critically acclaimed rapper Li’l Wayne is a pot smoker an jus like any baller he too has couple of residences that he splits his time between.  The residence in question is the $520,000 condo he’s staying in currently which is reportedly up for sale.

Apparently the broker trying to sell the place is having some problems, and for once, it has nothing to do with the real estate bust. It’s got to do with Li’l Wayne’s pot habit.

“My fiancé and I called to make an appointment to see it, and the broker, deadpan, goes, ‘I have two questions: Are you offended by the smell of marijuana? And do you mind coming late in the afternoon? It’s currently rented by Lil Wayne, and these are not morning people,” says a source.

“Once we got there, a member of Wayne’s posse opened the door to the overwhelming smell of marijuana. Two hot, rap-video-looking girls were walking around in nothing but a bra and underwear, blasting hip-hop. We just went in and looked around and tried not to stare.”

Two hot looking rap video looking girls in nothing but a bra an underwear aahhahahaa …. soo I guess smoking pot makes li’l wayne horny as well!!!! Maybe he should have utilized the exhaust system in the kitchen plus the washroom exhaust when lighting up or how about febreeze the place down before prospective buyers some thru. But I guess when you have that kind of money, who the hell cares if the apartment smells like weed or not. I know I won’t. Lets go Brudder Stoner … multi platinum cd an we be smoking anywhere an everywhere ….

Ohhh Noooooo stop the presses!!! America’s original sweetheart Marilyn Monroe is back in headlines this week after a home video of hers surfaced which depicts her smoking pot. OK, so the multi-talented multi-faceted actress, singer & model did smoke some pot, who the hell cares?!?!? Seriously, its sickening that after all these years an after her demise, now people are making a big deal just cause some dimwit stumbled upon the tape. Lay off of her folks … yea she might have smoked pot, so what?!?!

Every time some celeb is caught smoking pot, there is so much brouhaha an immediately the PR machines rev into full gear trying to distance their clients from the pot usage. Maybe the celebs enjoy a li’l toking once in a way. Who knows? Give them a break I say
