My oldest friend’s birthday is today. A few years ago, he and his husband and my Fella and I were out doing something, and I asked for my friends email address. (He’s changed providers several times, so it’s always different.)
So he tells me a combination of letters from his first and last name and then 420@whatever.com.
I busted out laughing. “You are joking, right? 420??”
Him: It’s my birthday!
Me: 420 is a pot reference, you dumbass!
Him:<horrified> OMG, it is??? I’ve been sending that out on all my resumes! That’s probably why I’m not getting any responses.:eek:
Actually we came real close when Chretien was going that route back during his last four years, until the Americans got wind of it and started with the “well you better not, or else” political overtures and he backed down it had nothing to do with the Conservatives. That’s about the only issue I have with Harper so far is his stance on marijuana. Mandatory sentences for a certain number of pot plants, give me a break. There’s tons of pot smokers out there, and it will never go away, a lot of them proffesionals that pay taxes, work hard and contribute to society. If a person wants to come on home on a Friday night and smoke a blunt instead of having a scotch. It shouldn’t be a crime considering the damage booze does. Just a matter of time.
