............ for 10 million kroner i can buy SO MANY KINDLES

If cartoons taught me anything it's that ransom notes are a) made out of newspaper cuttings and b) always optimistic on how much money people actually have ;D

Went to parliament.
Forgot what day it was.
Walked into the middle of a pot smoking protest.
Well that was interesting.

Your PMs were smoking pot?  How can I get our members of Congress to do that? It would make things here so much better!

It was more there were random people sitting on the front lawn smoking pot. I dunno if they were PMs but I actually wouldn't be surprised if there were since our current government is going to make it legal soon.

That doesn't make it much of a protest!

Speaking of pot smokers in strange places, my cousin lives in Colorado, where they've made pot legal, and he opened up the door  one cool mountain morning to find some guy passed out on their lawn with a spliff in either hand.
Turns out the nutcase had used a stronger brand that his standard (as he explained once he came around in the ambulance) and gave himself some kind of heart palpitation or asthma attack or something like that. Apparently, this isn't the first time the smoker had done this.

So, yeah, not to say that pot's bad, but my cousin has had about five insanely stoned people wandering around his property before. He has a pool, so if he doesn't lock the back door, he ends up with a stoned party in his back yard in their skivvies.

I can't say I'd be too disappointed to see politicians start smoking weed. Perhaps not all the time, but certainly whenever they have to vote on whether to go to war or not...

If he stocked his pool with piranhas, he'd have fewer problems like that.

Hmm... a seine net across the pool, with a motor to pull it to one end, trapping the piranhas there so that he and his invited guests could swim... then pull the net back the other way, to let the fishies out to patrol the whole pool again.
Yep, that'd work!  ;)

Well now that the drug is legal there's a whole population that is suddenly experementing with it and so doesn't have all the proper tricks and etiquette for safe use. Fortunately, this should subside after 4 or 5 centuries~

The classic story is the car load of stoners sitting at a stop sign. The cop comes up and asks what are they waiting for, and driver says "I'm waiting for the sign to turn green"...
