Ridiculous News Item of the Day

People magazine is reporting that Michael Phelps is considering not competing in the 2012 Olympics because of the whole bong photo scandal. I'm just going to throw this out there: if I ever have children and they can win even a single gold medal in the Olympics, they can smoke as much pot as they want. There, I said it.

In related news, CNBC aired a fascinating report on Tuesday evening about a medical marijuana store in California. The store is call "Amsterdam University" and it's a veritable ganja boutique. With a valid prescription, one can browse a catalog of different varieties of MJ and even purchase marijuana-laced baked goods. The establishment also provides supervision and refreshments (presumably weed-free) for children while the parental unit(s) is/are, ahem, surveying the inventory in back.
