I've never been able to understand why pot got put in the "illegal drug" category while tobacco and especially alcohol did not. It seems so arbitrary, especially when alcohol is in many ways the worse of the two.

Current events in Mexico are proving again that prohibition (especially of minor, popular drugs) causes more problems than it solves. Just like alcohol prohibition, marijuana prohibition is giving out criminal records to those who have only harmed themselves and providing massive funding for organized, violent criminal groups.

Hard to believe how many billions we've spent fighting pot usage (with little success, i might add) when we could have been making billions off taxes from it. Just stupid.

Please, no more confusing stealing (depriving someone of something) with copyright infringment (copying something without permission). They really are totally different. When something (virtual or physical) has been stolen from you, you have less than before. When someone has infringed on your copyright, you have just as much of the physical or virtual items as before. Indeed, sometimes you have all that you did before, plus increased mindshare and popularity. The only thing that may in any way decreased is *potential future income* from sales of copies or licenses thereto. Got that? Not actual income, but potential. And sometimes, even that is increased due to the rise in mindshare/popularity caused by the increased distribution.

Who is Hugh Hewitt anyway? Never heard of the man.

Despicable. Truly despicable.

I like fire!

Hilarious. Reminds me of Buster from Arrested Development.

Yep. Thanks for the help grating it!

Hey, you got your twitter video gratered! Congrats!

Seeing this now, it sure seems to me like the look of the Noah Bennett character from Heroes is patterned after Michael Douglas here. Same hair, same horn-rimmed glasses with a shirt and tie. Even some of the mannerisms fit.

What is with the fake cat's giant crotch area? That ain't right.

There was a shop teacher at my high school whose last name was Hunt and first name was Michael, but he went by "Mike". I kid you not. Bummer is, it's funnier when it's a joke. Seeing the guy 5 days a week for four years, and you just stop caring, like i imagine he did decades before.

Any suggestions?

Needs a new title IMO.

YouTube says the audio track hasn't been licensed by Warner Music Group, so they silenced it.

Only knows how to chase in circles, eh?

Of course, with the way we run our public schools, how can we possibly expect to keep our teaching standards high?

One of the sadder things i've seen on the sift.
