When Canada legalized cannabis sales, Toronto had a flurry of stores opening up with punny names on a scale only seen before with hair salons. Off the top of my head: - Highlife Cannabis - Baker & Blazer Cannabis - Fogtown Flower Shop (“Hogtown” is a nickname for Toronto) Any other examples out there? ---

We don’t even have legal weed yet in NC, but the CBD stores are everywhere. I live pretty close to the Mari Fairy, for example. A bunch of teachers and I were talking about the possibility of legalized cannabis and taxes on it paying for education, as has happened in some other states, and what we could call such an initiative. My contribution, based on a [really stupid state law](https://www.dpi.nc.gov/districts-schools/testing-and-school-accountability/state-tests/grade-3-read-achieve-rta) that was designed to (but doesn’t really) flunk third graders who didn’t pass an end-of-grade reading test: Weed to Achieve. ---

Pennsylvania has medical weed, but no recreational yet. Funny names are discouraged, because, um, medicine. But there is a tattoo shop I keep meaning to check out based on its name. **The Tat Cave** is either the best name ever or the worst. ---
