Great segment. Tosh is obviously hilarious to watch while stoned. “Man, I like to get high as hell”

Of course they are. One day I will be an old pot smoker myself. In my opinion, marijuana offers more relief for medical issues than most prescribed medications.

Pot use among seniors goes up as boomers age
Gray-haired tokers turn to marijuana to relieve many problems of aging
MIAMI, Florida – In her 88 years, Florence Siegel has learned how to relax: A glass of wine. A copy of The New York Times, if she can wrest it from her husband. Some classical music, preferably Bach. And every night, she lifts a pipe to her lips and smokes marijuana.

The use of the U.S.’s most popular illicit drug is growing among retirees as the massive generation of baby boomers who came of age in the 1960s and ’70s grows older.

The number of people aged 50 and older reporting marijuana use in the prior year went up from 1.9 percent to 2.9 percent from 2002 to 2008, according to surveys from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration…From MSNBC (Read Full Article)

LOS ANGELES — Customs officials say they got a surprise when they found 316,000 glass bongs disguised as Christmas ornaments at the Los Angeles harbor.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Thursday that agents found the highly decorated drug pipes in 860 boxes shipped from China. The cargo, estimated to be worth more than $2.6 million, had been described as glass figures and Christmas ornaments.

The bongs were seized Tuesday at the Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex.

Customs spokeswoman Cristina Gamez says the importer remains under investigation and there have been no arrests.

That’s the title of a novel by Lee Henshaw that I just ordered thanks to the description by Dom Joly as “Like some stoned new Kerouac, simply brilliant…” and also the YouTube video below posted by some fans of the book. The guys in the video are supposedly re-creating a “Blackcurrant Bath Bong” scene from the book.

LOL. I’m a fan of Michael Phelps, now that I know he smokes weed. Seriously, a lot of people are saying this is going to kill his chances for competing in the Olympics in 2012. Whatever. Click the picture for a larger view.

Phelps issued a pretty lame apology too, saying:

“I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment,” the record-setting American athlete said in a statement issued Sunday..”

“I’m 23 years old, and despite the successes I have had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner that people have come to expect from me,” Phelps said. “For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public — it will not happen again

Come on, Mike…just tell everybody you enjoy the occasional toke/bonghit. I remember during the Olympics people talking about you eating 8,000 calories per day…heh.

Also, whoever the snitch is that sold the picture of Phelps smoking a bong, should be shunned forever. Narc.
