California News

On Tuesday, California's ballot measure to legalize marijuana for recreational use was voted down. So no one in California will be smoking marijuana. In an unrelated story, meet me out back at 4:20 if you want some… bubble gum.

San Francisco has approved a measure to ban the sale of Happy Meals. San Francisco will simply replace them with Gay Meals.

“Dope Donation”

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2010/10/investor-soros-to-donate-1m-to-pass-calif-marijuana-bill/1

Billionaire investor George Soros is donating $1 million towards support for California’s Proposition 19, which would legalize growing and possession of marijuana. Soros doesn’t mind donating the money, which he says he only would have blown on pizza, Doritos and Big Gulps, anyway.

Soros’ donation is going to be used to generate high awareness.

Asked about what the vote means in terms of economics, raising tax money, and better use of law enforcement resources, Soros said nothing but kept giggling uncontrollably.
