		<description>&lt;i&gt;Nearly a third of all cocaine seized in the United States is laced...&lt;/i&gt;

No way in hell I&#039;m going to take that claim at face value.  It&#039;s probably a case of drug warrior math where 0.3% means 1/3.

Also, what is the definition of &quot;laced&quot;?  All orange juice is &quot;laced&quot; with up to 4 insect parts per gallon (or something like that, forget the actual USDA regulation).  Peanut butter can be &quot;laced&quot; with up to something like 1 gram of rat feces per pound.  Fish is &quot;laced&quot; with mercury.  Water is &quot;laced&quot; with chlorine.  The question isn&#039;t whether there is an adulterant or impurity in a product, the question is whether it&#039;s at dangerous concentrations.

Regardless, if cocaine were legal and manufactured under controlled conditions by Recreational Drugs of America, Inc., under the same quality standards used to manufacture Tylenol and Cocoa-Crispies, dangerous levels of adulterants wouldn&#039;t be a problem.</description>

		<description>My brother&#039;s absinth is already available in foreign lands, but is undergoing approval for sale in the U.S.

Personally I think the stuff tastes disgusting, I never liked those black jelly beans.  But then again people think I&#039;m crazy for liking beer so dark you can&#039;t see through it and a flavor like burnt coffee and chocolate.  Gimme a Guinness any day over Absinth.  :-)

However, I&#039;m not sure there&#039;s enough wormwood in it to live up to that herb&#039;s name.  But being a plant-lover I planted one in the yard anyway.

Personally I am eager to get started planting cannabis!

		<description>I&#039;m sure this news wouldn&#039;t stop Rick James.

He still thinks, wherever he is, that cocaine is one hell of a drug.</description>

		<description>At least none of the bastards has claimed that Prohibition is essential to keeping the intestinal parasite problem down in the US. I just can&#039;t wait to see how this one ends up being spun.</description>
