I've been reading The Emperor Wears No Clothes: The Authoritative Historical Record of Cannabis and the Conspiracy Against Marijuana. It makes me want to move to Canada. And I don't even smoke. It's just the attitude that pervades the U.S. The "Bible Belt" is just too big and full of too many bigots. And the crime rate comparisons are ridiculous, especially for violent crimes. It makes living in the U.S. seem almost suicidal. And when the oil runs out (because the U.S. won't stop until it runs out even if it kills the ecosystem) there will be a huge economic collapse. And unfortunatly it could take a large section of the internet with it. That could set our technological progress back a generation...
As far as GOOD news goes, I had a creme brulee at the Co-Op today and it was Divine. As in transexual. SO good.
