It's about damned time!!!!!!! From the Article:

There is an initiative in the works that could end up on the November ballot that allows for marijuana to be sold to anyone, and anywhere that already sells alcohol. Its being called The Inalienable Rights Enforcement Initiative. From the full text of the measure:

This initiative will amend the Constitution of California to defend and safeguard the inalienable rights of the People against infringement by governments and corporations, providing for the lawful growth, sale, and possession of marijuana. Marijuana will be taxed through a system of stamps and licenses--a $5 stamp will be required for the sale of an eighth ounce of marijuana and a $50 annual license will be required for the growth of one marijuana plant. To protect participants and encourage participation in the system, such licenses and stamps will be available anonymously in stores where marijuana is sold.

So instead of getting some quack doctor to give you a prescription for $100 because of your supposed "anxiety" or alleged "insomnia", you will just pay an extra tax each time you buy yourself another 8th.

All I wanted to say was "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year".....

So, I ran it past my lawyer on the grounds that I don't want to upset anybody in these politically correct times, (one has to cover one's butt) and this is what he came up with.

From me ("the wishor") to you ("the wishee"):

Please accept without obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, politically correct, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

Heather Martin gazed around the room at the crowd of smartly dressed people, all 20's and 30's it looked like, and sipped her wine spritzer. So many attractive people -- let's be honest, so many attractive women -- it was a good thing she looked a knockout herself in a little black dress and high-heel straps. It was too bad her husband John couldn't make it, but then he often was tied up when they were scheduled to attend an event.

Her mind wandered along with her eyes. That girl she knew from somewhere and the women beside her went to her fitness club. That guy over there, 'nice' she thought.

This must have, involuntarily, caused a smile to cross her face because the man in question picked up the vibes and smiled back. Which caused Heather to blush and look into her wine.

The man she had looked at was making his way across the room.

'Oh, God!" Heather thought.

"Yes," he said smiling as he came up to her, "I'm available. But I see from the ring on your finger you're not."

"That's very conventional thinking," Heather said, flirting.

"I'm not always conventional," the man said. "My name's Mike, bye the way, Mike Williams".

Some things to think about...

· I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

· Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

· The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

· Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

· There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead.

· Life is sexually transmitted.

· Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

· The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.

· Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

This morning I was browsing Castanet.net and caught myself laughing at a not-so-funny story. Here's the story as per Castanet:

The Regional District is reviewing security at Mount Boucherie Arena following a potentially disastrous incident.
The incident happened late Tuesday night when a 28-year-old man, under the influence of drugs or alcohol, entered the arena and walked onto the rink where about 35 players were practicing.
The man, armed with a large kitchen knife, went after one of the coaches and threatened to "cut someone's throat" and that "someone was going to die."
The suspect took a swipe at the coach with the knife. The coach managed to block the attack with a hockey stick before a number of players subdued the man.
Police say the man appeared to be delusional.
They add the man does not know any of the players or coaches, but does reside near the arena.
The man was taken to hospital for observation and he is well known to police.
He's facing a variety of charges including breach of probation.
Meantime, the Regional District says it's looking into the matter.
"We're looking at it," says spokesman Bruce Smith. "But staff at the arena can't remember the last time there's been an incident involving violence, and we have more than 25,000 visits a month to the facility."
Smith says there is no security guard on staff at the arena.

Does anybody still visit this site? :)

Any suggestions what to do with it besides toss it in the local kiln?

They're doing it for the women they love!

Four men, all in their mid 20's, have spent more than four-and-a-half months skateboarding across Canada for Breast Cancer research.

Their mission, "Push For The Cure," began in Halifax May 1 and will end in Vancouver October 9.

Carlos Koppen, 26, says none of the women in their lives have been affected by breast cancer.

"We are not doing this because someone we know has been diagnosed, we’re doing it because someone we know will be," says Koppen.

He says there is nothing they wouldn't do for their mothers, sisters, girlfriends and one day their wives and daughters, including skateboarding across Canada.
