The satirical article actually made it into a real news article from a local news station here:   [url]http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/marijuana/hoax-story-claiming-marijuana-overdoses-kill-37-in-colorado-fools-some-not-all[/url]

From what folks who watch the news told me, the stores ran out on the first day and were tripling prices by the end.    Of course those of us who live here know that this is to an [I]some extent[/I] due to novelty and expectation of greater selection, as it's fairly easy to get a medical marijuana card [B]or [/B]support entrepreneurs if you want to stay off a government list and avoid paying taxes out of [I]principle[/I].

Even though this is a comedy thread, the legalization of [B]HEMP [/B]and the consequences it will have may be a much larger story.  I remember Ron Paul saying it would be [I]far [/I]more efficient than corn for ethanol, and could help put an end to wasteful government subsidies for corn.  Beyond that it has many uses that other industries dont want to see come back   [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemp[/url]

Great find JarheadJim!   Loved both the references to [I]Lost [/I]and [I]Breaking Bad[/I].    For those familiar with Breaking Bad, I can just imagine the friend "Peter" as he said all of that with his particular style of speaking.   Now Jesse has joined Walter White(pictured above my name) in the great beyond.  RIP Jesse!
