Lol, I find it oh so delightful when Stephen employs the seedy underbelly of his vast vocabulary.

Karl Pilkington on Satellite Navigation
I was tempted to look up Karl Pilkington after watching this, just so I might discover what he looks like in RL. Then I decided not too, he's far more entertaining as a cartoon.
Ron Paul Defends Heroin in front of SC audience
I'd like to advise my fellow sifters to try to not get too emotionally heated, this is a great discussion.
I remember travelling way up North just a few years back, a little town called Pangnirtung, one of seven dry communities in Nunavut. Alcohol is not sold in town and guests and tourists are prohibited from bringing any of it into the hotel. The community took a vote not too long ago and with roughly 70% of the small community in favor, the town stayed dry. Alcoholism, ofcourse is still a problem. Suicide rates among the youth are very high, and most serious crimes that are committed are still alcohol-related.
Bootlegging presents a very worthwhile enterprise for many kids up there, it's obviously very easy to find outside the community, it's only a matter of hiding it. What's more, it's a hell of a lot easier to smuggle a mickey of rum than a six pack of beer, obviously any booze you find there is going to be the strong stuff.
Now under any normal circumstance at all I would say alcohol prohibition is a terrible idea, the same goes for the war on drugs. It's just that, Pangnirtung is so isolated and detached from the rest of mainstream Canada. So much so that it can be very hard for the local boozehounds to get their fix. If alcohol was suddenly made readily available I have no doubt in my mind that alot of kids would end up dead.
During our trip we had a chance to tour through the local elementary school and as I walked through the halls I started to look at the arts and crafts posted along the walls. Most were just typical little kid sketches or small little art projects. Then I noticed something that made my stomach churn..
One of the projects included a picture and then a list of the child's goals and his likes and dislikes. Nearly all of them mentioned alcohol and drugs in some way or another. It was kinda upsetting, alcohol shouldn't be on a list of concerns of a twelve year old.
In terms of drug regulation I really don't know, I've been on both sides of the issue and I'm still left with alot of questions, just my two cents.
Bill Maher New Rules 5/6/11
If we're talking about racism here, I have to give Bill mad props for this video. The fact that a man like Osama was even uttered in the same sentence with Geronimo is insulting. We're still waiting for that apology, but I'm glad its finally being discussed in the senate. They need to be held accountable, we're not just going to stand by as one of our greatest heroes is dragged through the mud. Once again, I applaud Maher for bringing attention to it.
