Student Busted for Dorm Grow
November 19th, 2008 by Perry
A Davis & Elkins College student is lodged in Tygart Valley Regional Jail after the Elkins Police Department searched his dorm room and found a setup for the production of marijuana. In case you were wondering, that’s West Virginia.
The police were tipped off by an anonymous letter, and then let in by a roommate, where they found: “a scale, rolling papers, baggies, several bongs and pipes in the room. Inside a blue glass, police found several germinating marijuana seeds.”
Just how sharp are police in West Virginia?
While police were at the department, a sample was taken from one of the bongs and tested with a Narcotics Analysis Reagent Kit No. 8 … and the test was positive for marijuana.
What the hell kind of scientific test do you need to determine the resin found on a bong in a room full of marijuana paraphernalia came from weed?
Netherlands Passes Ban on Mushrooms
November 13th, 2008 by Perry
Mostly an import from Hawaii, Ecuador and Mexico, the hallucinogenic, “magic mushrooms” are now banned in the Netherlands. Mushrooms have been freely available for years in the country.
The ban was passed due to outrage over a French girl, 17, who jumped from a bridge to her death while under the influence of mushrooms. The move seems to come as a wave of reform is being pushed by the local leaders who hope to clean up the image of the nation.
Amsterdam city council supports the government’s ban, hoping it will change the general perception of the city as a mecca for drug users and the sex industry.
Shop owners have claimed the ban will result in hundreds of jobs being lost and are planning protest marches.
A Dutch magic mushroom customer said:
Sunday lunch just won’t be the same. I always used the mushrooms in my stew for friends. They produce a nice relaxing glow, much better than alcohol.
Most definitely.
