Re: Your thoughts on Syria?

Re: Denver Activists hand out Joints to protest High Pot Tax

25 per cent tax does not sound like a high sin tax. How does that compare with alchohol or tobacco taxes?

Re: London Hyde Park UK420 Smoke Up and Walkabout

Yet more witless parroting about the new super strength evil cannabis which is apparently different from harmless cannabis from the 1960s. Good article from Ben Goldacre who specialises in highlighting bogus science bollocks- http://www.badscience.net/2007/03/reefer-badness Shame an ex teacher can't...

Re: London Hyde Park UK420 Smoke Up and Walkabout

Sounds like plod aren't looking for any brownie points with the Tory tabloids-

First move would be to keep my mouth shut. Tell the missus I've got a great new job but I'll have to work away quite a bit.

ChristenUnie are a fringe party and I doubt if Amsterdam is their natural base anyway.

Re: RIP Larry Hagman...aka JR Ewing, aka MAJ Tony Nelson

Hagman looked frail in that dodgy Dallas remake but he still had a twinkle in his eye and dominated the screen. Couple of other great Larry Hagman performances include playing a decent old Senator with skeletons in his closet in Primary Colors. Also Stardust, a 70s British Rock n Roll movie about th...
