We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Year’s Eve Party.

We turned the answering machine on, covered our pet parakeet, and put the cat in the backyard. We didn’t want the cat shut in the house because she always tries to eat the bird. Then we phoned the local cab company and requested a taxi.

The taxi arrived. Just as we were opening the front door to leave the house, the cat we had put out in the back yard, scoots past our legs back into house.   Continue reading “Wednesday Funny: Say goodbye to mother”

As unbelievable as it sounds, the Drug Enforcement Agency has come up with the most ridiculous argument against marijuana legalization yet. You see, the State of Utah is considering a bill that would recognize the rights of patients with certain debilitating conditions to use medical marijuana – or, more accurately, to use marijuana medically.

The bill specifically promotes the use of edible forms of the plant, preferring it to smoking. This is, of course, fine for most who want to use the herb for medicine. But the DEA is freaking out…   Continue reading “DEA Claims ‘Rabbits’ Will Get Stoned If Utah Passes Medical Marijuana Bill”
