TOP THREE 33

Two brothers from Lansing, Illinois were held in jail for 33 days in Florida, the max amount of days someone can be held in Florida without any charges. Because of the arrest, one of the brothers lost his college athletic scholarship.

The New York Times launched the climate change concept 33 years ago with the article “Global Warming Has Begun…” after a NASA scientist testified the greenhouse effect had been detected. Coincidentally, June 25th was the 33rd anniversary of the 1988 Yellowstone National Park fires.

33 train cars derailed in Eastern Pennsylvania. Luckily, no one was injured and there were no hazardous spills.

WEED

If you live in New Mexico and are over the age of 21, you can AS OF TODAY, (Tokin’ Tuesday, June 29, 2021) you may now possess up to two ounces of nug, 16 grams of extracts, 800 milligrams of edibles and start growing your own weed — no more than 6 mature and 6 immature plants per person or 12 and 12 in a household — thanks to NM’s Cannabis Regulation Act. New Mexicans will still have to wait until April 1, 2022 to buy and sell weed from a dispensary, however. 

Another happening today on this tasty Tuesday was the Mexican Supreme Court mandating the Health Department to begin issuing permits to citizens older than 18 who wish to grow or possess personal use amounts of weed, though commercial activities remain illegal. In 2009, Mexico decriminalized possession under 5 grams and in 2018, the Court determined federal prohibition was unconstitutional, giving lawmakers until April 30th to enact legislation to regulate adult use. Unfortunately, House and Senate lawmakers did not agree on a plan before the deadline.

Yesterday (Monday, June 28, 2021), the Supreme Court decided not to hear Standing Akimbo, a Denver-based medical marijuana dispensary’s, challenge against Internal Revenue Code Section 280E which prohibits tax deductions for the “trafficking of Controlled Substances.”  After the decision, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in his legal opinion that, “A prohibition on intrastate use or cultivation of marijuana may no longer be necessary or proper to support the Federal Government’s piecemeal approach.”

Last Thursday,Governor Jared Polis signed House Bill 21-1317 into law, requiring the Colorado School of Public Health (made up of University of Colorado, Colorado State University, and the University of Northern Colorado) to “do a systematic review of the scientific research related to the possible physical and mental health effects of high-potency THC marijuana and concentrates” before creating a scientific review council to study the findings and make recommendations to lawmakers. After this recommendation is made, the Colorado School of Public Health will produce a public education campaign about the effects of high-potency THC on mental health and the developing brain.

Citizens limiting patients to 8 grams of concentrates per purchase, down from the previous 40 gram limit, and capping patients aged 18 to 20 to 2 grams per purchase. Each transaction is logged and seed-to-sale traceability will prevent patients from purchasing more at another dispensary on the same day. Manufacturers now must include warnings on concentrate packages as well as serving size guidance. More rules were created for patients between the ages of 18 and 20 such as acquiring two doctor recommendations who conduct more thorough consultations. All patients will have their mental health history assessed before recommendations are provided now. Of course, there is still good reason for folks to want to become a registered medical patient in Colorado: the excise tax for card-carrying patients is 2.9% while everyone else pays 15%.

As you may recall from previous episodes of Bowl After Bowl, 54% of South Dakotans voted in favor of both recreational and medical marijuana initiatives on their November 2020 ballot. Governor Kristi Noem however opposed the will of the people and facilitated litigation in February 2021 to strike Amendment A (the recreational initiative) down as unconstitutional. The Judge of the state’s Sixth Judicial Circuit Court ruled the measure violates state requirements for ballot measures to cover only one topic and revises rather than amends the state Constitution, which should not permit it to move forward.

Last Friday, State Court Administrator Greg Sattizahn announced that the South Dakota Supreme Court will not issue a ruling on Amendment A before the proposed July 1st deadline. Medical cannabis, however, becomes legal in South Dakota as of July 1st, but state officials won’t be ready to distribute medical cards until the fall.

Eight strains were recalled by the Arizona Department of Health Services due to possible salmonella and aspergillus (mold) contamination. Please keep the poo poo germs off of the good good.

In 2014, Washington, D.C. legalized possession and home cultivation under a voter initiative, but Congress used a budget rider to prevent the local government from using its resources to create a transparent, licensed commercial sales program. Under the proposed Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Services and General Government spending bill, which includes provisions relating to the District of Columbia’s budget, the House Appropriations Committee omitted the rider and added language to create limited protections for banking institutions providing services to state-licensed cannabusinesses. However, this rider has been excluded two years in a row and wound up being added back into the final package.

FIRST TIME I EVER #FTIE

Bowlers called in to tell us about the first time they ever lied to their parents, and we want to hear from YOU before next Tokin’ Tuesday about the first time YOU ever came in a room.

Fuck it, Dude.  Let’s go bowling.  #FDLGB

Remember the 10 record-breaking babies born in South Africa we mentioned in Bowl After Bowl Episode 86: Looking at Tom Thumb? Turns out, the South African woman was lying and was not even pregnant. She was taken in for psychiatric evaluation under which the paper that originally broke the story doubled down and claimed the government was trying to cover up medical negligence by holding her. The editor has since written an apology.

A man arrested in Mexico was believed to be a runaway fugitive wanted for killing a husband and wife while drunk driving. Turns out, he gave a fake name but had warrants out for his arrest in Arkansas and Missouri.

Two Arizona women are in custody after stealing more than $100,000 worth of merchandise from Walmart by making it appear their items had been paid for in the self-checkout using the Walmart Pay app on their phones.

As previously mentioned on Bowl After Bowl Episode 69: Some Holy Somebody, FBI agents went digging for a fabled cache of gold in Pennsylvania. Of course, the FBI never publicly explained why they went treasure hunting other than excavating “what evidence suggested may have been a cultural heritage site.” According to court documents unsealed last Thursday (June 24, 2021), an agent applied for a federal warrant in 2018 to seize the gold, which he claims was one or more tons stolen during the Civil War. He applied for the seizure warrant to avoid seeking permission from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources to excavate the site which he believed would then claim the gold for the state and cause a costly legal battle. The agent also revealed that in 2013, a legislative staffer acting on behalf of others in state government offered Finders Keepers USA, a father-son duo of treasure hunters, a state permit to dig in return for three gold bars or 10% of the findings. No one has been charged in connection with the case and federal prosecutors say the case is closed.

A customer at a New Hampshire restaurant told his bartender, “Don’t spend it all in one place,” prompting her to look at the check and notice a $16,000 tip.  The tip was left on June 12th but the restaurant owner didn’t share the story until June 21 because he wanted to see if the payment would actually go through first. Eight bartenders split the tip.

After failing to comply with multiple stop-work orders along with an order to remove features around her Flintstones-themed house in the San Francisco suburbs of Hillsborough, the town took owner Florence Fang to court. But she countersued and reached a settlement, agreeing to apply for building permits while the town reviews and approves a survey of landscaping improvements. She also received $125,000 from the town to drop the case.

Living With the Land is a slow-moving boat ride at Disney World that takes visitors through the amusement park’s greenhouses. It’s also the second longest of all the attractions. This lady must have been bored becauseshe jumped off and on the boat four times and tried to steal a cucumber.

Onefamily has received 16 calls from their missing grandparents’ landline — from inside Champlain Towers South condo which collapsed last Thursday in Florida.

Two men sunbathing naked on a remote beach south of Sydney, Australia fled into the Royal National Park after being startled by deer and got lost. After authorities came to their rescue, they were fined $760 for breaking COVID-19 rules.

A teenage girl was rescued from a former bank vault inside a New York clothing store.

TOP THREE 33

Juneteenth didn’t go so well for an Ikea in Atlanta where 33 employees called out after a serving fried chicken and watermelon to celebrate. Here is a link to the full video used for the clip.

After shooting his dad, a random woman at a weed dispensary, and running over an elderly couple with his truck, a 30-year-old Oregon man set his vehicle aflame and forced a Cabela’s worker on her lunchbreak to drive him 33 hours north to Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  By the time they arrived, she had convinced him to turn himself in where he was charged with six counts of murder due to Oregon law, one count of attempted second-degree murder, one count of first-degree assault, and two counts of failure to perform duties of driver to injured people. 

33 international teams were chosen to compete in a three-year contest aimed at preserving the Amazon rainforest by developing new biodiversity survey tools and producing real-time insights on rainforest health and value.  Known as the XPRIZE Rainforest Competition, teams will have 48 hours to use their technologies to better identify, catalog, and map 247 acres of the rainforest.  $10 million will be split between first, second, and third place with a $250,000 b onus award.           

Chinese provinceJiangsu completed construction of a 33-kilometer driverless highwayon June 18th and will open it to traffic at the end of this month.  This self-driving expressway uses 5G technology integrated with Building Information Modeling, big data, the Internet of Things, cloud computing.  Holographic sensors collect data to make the road smarter.     

In Van Horn, Texas, US Border Patrol agents rolled up on a suspicious activity call and ended up saving 33 undocumented migrants who were locked in a U-Haul box-truck. Twelve were brought to hospitals with heat-related illness. They have all been processed and Homeland Security Investigations has accepted the case for prosecution.

THE COOF

COVID admissions to KC-area hospitals are up 33%.

33 new cases reported in El Paso, North Bay Jail (Ontario), Maine, Massachusetts.

In Fiji, 33 people were arrested for breaching a health restriction curfew to drink alcohol.

Parents who sent their children’s face masks worn in school to the University of Florida’s Mass Spectrometry Research and Education Center for analysis found five of the six masks were contaminated with bacteria, parasites, and fungi — three of which had pneumonia-causing bacteria. 33% of the pathogens were antibiotic-resistant strains. The test was incapable of detecting viruses.

WHOupdated its COVID-1984 jab advice page to say children are not a high priority.

WEED

Connecticut legalized recreational weed after holding their special session. This law limits adults to possession 1.5 ounces and does not allow homegrow until 2023. However, if you are a medical card carrying patient, you can now grow a total of 6 plants (3 “mature,” 3 “immature”). Offenses dealing with up to 4 ounces will be automatically expunged. A 30% THC cap was placed on flower and 60% on concentrates.

Rhode Island’s Senate advanced one of the three recreational bills  TODAY on this Tokin’ Tuesday after it advanced out of the Judiciary Committee last week. Their legislative session ends June 30th but a special session could be called to push it through, as we’ve seen with other states like Connecticut and New Mexico (as discussed on Episode 74: Storm’s a-Brewin’.)

Afederal judge in Missouri ruled against the Show-Me State’s residency requirement in favor of a Pennsylvania investor who sued the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, the state’s medical cannabis regulators, for violating the commerce clause of the Constitution. The residency rule required businesses be at least 51% owned by state residents, which were defined as anyone living in Missouri for at least one year. Colorado, Maine, and Oregon have all nixed their residency requirements but a federal judge in Oklahoma just threw out a lawsuit against theirs (which was discussed on Bowl After Bowl Episode 86: Looking at Tom Thumb.)

In Detroit, a judge suspended the ordinance giving preference to long-term residents applying for recreational business licenses, granting an injunction last Thursday that will temporarily halt the processing of applications. The requirements included living in the city 10 to 14 of the past 30 years on top of having previous marijuana convictions or a parent with a record.

Four cannabusinesses in New Jersey were issued cease-and-desist letters from the state Attorney General and Division of Consumer Affairs to stop offering “gifts” to purchasing customers to skirt the state’s one-ounce purchase limit laws. They are now under investigation for violating the state’s Consumer Fraud Act because of misrepresentation. Customers pay higher prices on other items to receive a “gift,” which makes it not a gift at all.

Two businessmen were given 30- and 15-month prison sentences for disguising $150 million in weed-related transactions for California delivery business Eaze as fake websites and dummy corporations between 2016 and 2019 so banks would process them.  These sentences were far below what federal prosecutors recommended to the judge, which included life imprisonment for one and nearly 25 years for the other.  Former Eaze CEO James Patterson plead guilty to a count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud in the case but was not charged or found at fault during the investigation.

FUCK IT, DUDE. LET’S GO BOWLING. #FIDLGB

The world’s third-largest gem-quality diamond was unearthed in Botswana at 1,098-carats.

Florida Man was arrested on felony charges of criminal mischief, reckless driving, and evidence of prejudiceafter doing a burnout with his pickup truck over a LGBTQ pride crosswalk streetscape painting.

A manplanned to propose to his girlfriend after hiking to the summit of the Simonside Hills in Northumberland National Park in England, which according to local folklore is home to dwarves. When the time arrived, he found his wallet was still in his pocket but the ring wasn’t. Instead, he found a hole in the pocket. Lucky enough, another hiker found it on the trail and he got it back after they were connected on Facebag.

After being given a pill to speed up labor, a Denver mom was told an emergency C-section would be required because of a “sudden movement” the baby made leaving nurses unable to find her heartbeat. As if that wasn’t traumatic enough,their daughter emerged with a massive cut on her face requiring 13 stitches. Medical staff said her face was close to the placenta wall. In a study of 37,000 C-sections, skin lacerations occurred 0.7% of the time.

A naked manbroke into a Bel Aire mansion in a gated community and murdered two pet parakeets.Here is a link to the video used for the clip.

Florida Woman was shocked to findnearly $1 billion in her bank account, which had warned her of overdraft when she tried to withdraw $20 from the ATM. Turns out, it was a negative balance but only caused by a fraud protection freeze since the account was held by her late husband.Click here to see the full video clipped for the show.

After a pet chimpanzee bit its owner’s 50-year-old daughter on the arm, an Oregon deputy had no choice but to shoot and kill it.

A British family was reunited with their missing dog– 11 years later.

A visitor to Boston’s New England Aquarium was allowed to enter using a ticket that sat in her wallet for almost four decades. Known as a “late gate” ticket, it was a free make-up visit to guests who arrived too late in the day to get the full aquarium experience. 25 years ago, the aquarium stopped issuing these tickets.

And if you disguise a nature camera as a piece of bark, a woodpecker just might destroy it.

TOP THREE 33

Rest in Peace, Joya. Born in 1988 at the San Diego Wild Animal Park, this 33-year-old greater one-horned rhino (also known as the Indian Rhino) was the oldest male in the Species Survival Plan of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. Joya moved to Salina, Kansas’ Rolling Hills Zoo in 1995 where he had been monitored by veterinarian staff for age-related issues for the past few months.

Add another tally to the Clinton Body Count. This week, ABC 33/40 reporter Christopher Sign suicided. He broke the secret tarmac meeting between Bill Clinton and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch in 2016, then published a book about it. After its release in February 2020, he told Fox & Friends his family received death threats which drove him out of Phoenix, Arizona back to Birmingham, Alabama — to Channel 33.

When asked about chain of custody documents for absentee ballots deposited into drop boxes for the November 3, 2020 election, a Fulton County election official admitted to The Georgia Star News “a few forms are missing” and “some procedural paperwork may have been misplaced.” Coincidentally, Georgia is missing chain of custody documents for about 333,000 absentee ballots out of an estimated 600,000 which is pretty suspicious considering Biden only “won” by 12,000 votes in the Peach State.

Lastly, neighbors called for a wellness check on a Glendora, California home after smelling a strong odor coming from it. Law enforcement found 33 cats — 7 dead and 2 that had to be euthanized — and one dog living in filthy conditions.

THE COOF

This week, 33 deaths were reported in Oman and the Punjab state of India.

33 new cases were reported in the Prey Veng province of Cambodia, Kentucky’s Graves County, Massachusetts, Maui, New York’s Monroe County, and Washington’s Clark County.

The CDC updated their travel guidance, moving 33 countries to their lowest risk category which is deemed safe for travel for anyone who got a coof shot.

In England, a 33-year-old music teacher plead guilty to faking a COVID ‘Fit to Fly’ certificate to travel to Egypt by altering the date on a negative ‘rona test PDF from February. An Egyptian airline worker spotted a missing digit on the certificate. He was found guilty of forgery and counterfeit offense of making a false instrument but was granted bail and is leaving the country ahead of his hearing, telling the judge he will be back in time for it and now has an up-to-date negative test certificate.

Also, the symptoms for this scary new Delta variant are headaches, coughs, and sneezing…like a cold.

WEED

In 2007, Robert Franklin tossed a pound of weed out of his car during a traffic stop in Saline County, Missouri and received a 22-year prison sentence. But after serving more than a decade in prison, he has become the first 420POW to have his case commuted by Governor Mike Parson. Jeff Mizanskey was the last time weed-related POW freed by Governor Jay Nixon in 2015.

Joints for Jabs launched Monday in Washington state, but dispensary owners aren’t participating. Unlike other jab freebies which require citizens to simply flash their poked papers to claim their prize, Joints for Jabs requires pot shops to set up a vaccine clinic inside so only those with a fresh band-aid can claim their jay. Many don’t have the space to set up a clinic inside, and healthcare providers are concerned about setting up shop in a place that distributes illegal drugs since that could jeopardize their federal funding. Since the program expires July 12, citizens planning to get poked in the pot shop might not be able to get their second shot in time. Participating pot shops will be able to cash in on a tax break for product they give away unlike alcohol retailers, but that doesn’t help much when they are still unfairly facing Section 180E.

Last Tokin’ Tuesday, the pain management committee for the NFL and NFL Players Association announced it will provide $1 million in funding for research into pain management with cannabis and cannabinoids. Five grants are expected to be awarded around Thanksgiving.

Arkansas’ medical sales exceeded $330 million since the market launched in 2019 and last month, May 2021, Maine hit a new record with $5.4 million in recreational sales.

The Montana group opposing the 2020 voter-approved recreational initiative has dropped its lawsuit since Governor Greg Gianforte signed House Bill 701 into law, amending the legalization law voters passed. The lawsuit claimed the initiative was unconstitutional for earmarking a portion of tax revenues from federally illegal marijuana sales, contending only the legislature can determine how tax revenue is spent.

Tomorrow, June 16, 2021 at 10 AM, the Connecticut legislature will hold a special session to determine the fate of the recreational weed bill mentioned previously on Bowl After Bowl. Rhode Island will have to wait a little longer for a recreational market, as the backers of three adult-use bills failed to compromise and likely won’t before the end of the legislative session the last week of June.

Today, Representatives Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ) and Cori Bush (D-MO) unveiled the Drug Policy Reform Act (DPRA) to end criminal penalties for drug possession federally and incentivize state and local governments to adopt decriminalization policies by limiting their eligibility to receive funds if they don’t. The bill also proposes moving regulatory power from the Attorney General to the Secretary of Health and Human Services, record expungement and resentencing, “reinvesting in alternative health-centered approaches,” prohibiting drug tests for individuals to receive federal benefits, prohibiting the use of civil asset forfeiture related to personal drug possession cases, and establishing a Commission on Substance Use, Health and Safety to determine benchmark amounts for drug possession and publish a report including recommendations for preventing the prosecution of individuals processing, distributing, or dispensing personal use quantities.

In 2018, Tampa-based Florigrown sued the state over its licensing process which resulted in three of the 22 licensed operators controlling two-thirds of the market. Six license holders account for 90% of sales. They hoped the state would provide standalone licenses for small businesses and break up the vertical scheme, but the Supreme Court just ruled against them in a 6-1 decision saying the Florida Legislature met its constitutional obligations in enacting a limited-license vertical structure. With the lawsuit over, the state’s licensing freeze comes to an end. It is likely state regulators will issue 15 new vertical licenses over the next six months.

The Ohio State Medical Board added Huntington’s disease, spasticity or severe muscle spasms, and terminal illness as qualifying conditions for medical weed. Earlier in the year, the board granted separate requests to add arthritis, chronic migraines, and complex regional pain syndrome but rejected petitions to include autism spectrum disorder and restless leg syndrome.

In Colorado, 21 individuals were arrested in connection to a black market marijuana and money laundering scheme. They are accused of growing millions of dollars worth of pot across metro Denver and funneling their profits to China through social media apps. The investigation began in August 2020 and investigators have since seized thousands of plants, hundreds of pounds of packaged pot, and about $1 million. Charges range from racketeering and conspiracy to drug cultivation, distribution, and money laundering. Federal investigators found the money cycled from the US to China to Central and South America, then back to the US. Two individuals were allegedly involved in the illegal Oklahoma grow op referenced in Bowl After Bowl Episode 80: I Shitted My Priorities.

Yesterday (Monday, June 14, 2021), the California legislature approved a $100-million plan to strengthen their legal industry which continues to struggle in competition with the emerald market five years after voters approved recreational sales. Grants will be provided to cities and counties to help businesses transition from provisional to regular licenses. It’s a complicated process to get a permanent, annually-renewed license from a temporary one, requiring high costs and developing a plan to reduce the harms of the industry’s negative environmental impacts.

Speaking of negative impacts, Sacramento is being sued by a number of unidentified weed businesses for establishing “Neighborhood Responsibility Plan” fees equal to 1% of gross revenue on top of a 4% business operations tax on gross receipts — even though the city failed to identify a single negative impact from cannabiz operations.

After receiving eight complaints about a growing operation’s odor March 2019, Santa Barbara County filed the jurisdiction’s first nuisance lawsuit against Island View Ranch and Island Breeze Farms.  The lawsuit also claims Island Breeze hasn’t “diligently pursued” obtaining the county and state business licenses to operate and therefore is illegally growing and processing weed.

Kansas City’s city council passed an ordinance last Thursday aimed at curbing street racing, which includes a fine of up to $100 for spectators and possible jail time for performers. Coincidentally, there was a livestream of cops chasing the stunt drivers away from Union Station on Friday. Coincidence or media hype?

Mississippi Secretary of State won’t push the Supreme Court justices to change their minds on the ruling invalidating a 2020 voter-approved ballot measure to legalize medical weed. Instead, he’s asking the governor to call a special session and fix the technicality they cited to invalidate it, which was the ballot initiative language stating signatures must be collected from all five congressional districts when there have only been four — since 2000. Why have no other ballot initiatives been invalidated in the past 20 years?

KANSAS CITY

Kansas City received $8.3 million in federal money to address homelessness

Potential crackdown on street sideshows

WEED

Missouri lawmakers passed a bill allowing medical weed companies to deduct ordinary and necessary business expenses on their state tax returns that Section 280E of the federal tax code currently prohibits. We’ll see if Governor Mike Parson signs it into law. Then, the Show-Me State appeals court ruled regulators cannot keep cannabiz license applications secret, so the more then 800 denied licensees appealing the application and scoring system used by the Missouri Department of Health and Human Services can now compare their applications to others.

Kansas may be too late to pass their medical bill, but they did open their first industrial hemp fiber processing facility in Great Bend. They’ve contracted with 10 farmers this year totaling 1,000 acres of hemp and they bought their equipment from Colorado, so they are proud to say they are creating 100% American-made products. Hemp will save the world!

New Mexico is getting a $300 million DEA research facility that will create 170 research jobs along with 200 research and agricultural jobs. They were awarded a memorandum of agreement from the DEA, which 30 other private businesses are hoping to also receive.

New York joins Colorado and 10 other states in banning delta-8 and other THC isomers. 

Montana lawmakers passed a bill to amend the voter-approved recreational market, pushing the start date back three months, setting a THC cap on flower, limiting edible potency per package, reducing homegrow from 4 to 2 plants, and moving oversight from the Department of Public Health and Human Services to the Department of Revenue, among other changes against the will of the people.

A House-approved decriminalization bill is heading to the Louisiana Senate and could remove jail time for possession. Also up for debate on the Senate floor is a bill to legalize flower and concentrates for patients to smoke. Arizona lawmakers rejected a bill that would have banned weed companies from having billboards or sponsorships in events of all kinds. South Carolina is out of time when it comes to passing a medical bill, but Texas could still expand its narrow compassionate care program to a still incredibly narrow medical market.

Congratulations on legalizing medical marijuana, Greece! Take that, 33 nay votes.

THE COOF 

33 deaths were reported in Michigan and New Jersey since we last toked on a Tuesday.  Kansas City dropped its indoor mask mandates including in metro schools. But the CDC released a statement Saturday recommending schools keep mask policies in place. Think of the children!

Or don’t. In Las Vegas, parents of high school children are concerned for their children’s privacy since a teacher sent them home with an assignment to write a paragraph on why or why not they would be getting the experimental therapy since it is now available to their age group.

One company got some good nationwide ad space with the mainstream talking all about their jab record bracelet which allows users to upload their medical records to their encrypted server and presents a QR code for all to scan and see – for just one low payment of $19.99!

Oh, and remember: “Your compliance is prolonging this nightmare. Ditch the mask.“

WEED 

Effective immediately, the federal standard dose for THC is 5 milligrams. Local KC news played this cringe piece calling delta-8 “pot’s little brother” and giving some free press to a cute budtender on YouTube. But at least Missouri medical weed sales have surpassed the five year estimate already – in six months. Colorado banned THC isomers including delta-8 and another politician was found guilty of accepting bribes for dispensary licenses, this time in Massachusetts.

Republicans are pushing for federal legalization and removal from the Federal Controlled Substances list to ensure individual liberty. Meanwhile, the Mississippi Supreme Court became the first to overturn a MEDICAL initiative passed by 75% of the voters because the language on the ballot initiatives didn’t update when the state went from five congressional districts to four. Alabama’s governor signed a super limited Compassionate Act medical bill into law yesterday, which doesn’t allow patients to smoke bud, vape, or enjoy edibles and caps daily THC consumption to 50 milligrams unless a doctor says otherwise. Then the cap gets bumped up to 75 milligrams.

Nebraska lawmakers came two votes short of the *33* needed to break a filibuster on an equally limited medical bill, so petitioners will soon begin their process to get weed on the 2022. And Minnesota is going to see a surge in medical sales since lawmakers slipped approval for smokable flower into an omnibus healthcare bill. Sadly, a recreational bill passed out of the Minnesota House but died in the Senate.

WEED

Kansas’ medical marijuana bill advanced out of the House and is heading for the Senate. It’s similar to the medical bill Alabama just signed into law, not allowing patients to smoke or vape their medicine. And in Tennessee, a bill passed creating a nine-person commission to study weed laws and advise politicians on patient-focused legislation. But if there’s going to be a true medical program in Tennessee, it won’t begin operating until weed is “removed from Schedule I of the federal Controlled Substances Act.”

Patients in West Virginia can start registering for their medical cards — four years after legalization passed. Maybe in four more years, they’ll be able to get their medicine.  

The US DEA released their 2020 annual report, showing numbers of seized plants and arrests made went up slightly from 2019.

Ukrainian authorities seized 1,500 bottles of booze made in Chernobyl, even though the company is doing everything by the books. Australians found a giant wood moth and Californians found a footballfish washed upon the shore.

SHOW-ME STATE STORIES

Tiny homes are being built for the homeless in Kansas City, though a construction start date and location have not been announced. It’s been a month since the homeless protestors were moved to area hotels for a 90-day stay, but the city is suddenly trying to move them for “financial reasons” and “accusations of disrespect from guests.” 

A KC woman looking for a house to rent wasscammed out of almost $2,000 and the state made national new when public school officials at St. Louis area high school released a memo in response to parental complaints telling teachers to remove race-based curriculum from the virtual learning platform so parents wouldn’t see it.

Last Wednesday, State Representative Nick Schroer proposed an amendment banning critical race theory from public schools for House Bill 1141, which aims to protect students whose GPAs lowered during COVID.  There’s also an amendment to this House Bill to ban biological boys who call themselves trans from competing on girls’ school sports teams (and vice versa), which is something Caitlyn Jenner, who is running for California governor, agrees.

DRUG WAR

After a successful Phase 3 trial, 100 participants are taking part in a second trial of MDMA-assisted therapy. If it’s also a success,the Food and Drug Administration could approve its therapeutic use in 2023. Could this bethe beginning of a psychedelic industry boom? People may need trip therapy if the FDA takes away their blunt wraps and menthol cigarettes! Once the agency publishes its proposed rules, there will be an opportunity for public comment and maybe legal battles.

WEED

New Mexico has 33 canna companies after one had its business permit revoked following an explosion and fire last year. Oral arguments were heard Wednesday in the South Dakota Supreme Court to uphold the voter-approved recreational market. The United States Supreme Court will not hear the appeals of two California cannabis companieswho owe just under $2 million in taxes under Section 280E. 

The Marijuana Data Collection Act was reintroduced, which would require state agencies to enter a 10-year arrangement with the National Academy of Sciences to conduct studies on legalized states. Eleven states have banned delta-8 THC and five more are considering it. In Texas, the House of Representatives advanced three weed-related bills. In Washington state, Jay Inslee signed the Marijuana Social Equity Program into law. Colorado lawmakers advanced a bill eliminating civil penalties for possession up to two ounces of weed.

Snortable cannabis concentrate was almost a thing.

The enforcement of seed-to-sale tracking in Oklahoma has been halted for 60 days after a lawsuit was filed claiming the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority created a monopoly for a third party tracker in Florida. The OK Bureau of Narcotics alsoraided 20 greenhouses under one grow license alleging the group wasn’t reporting sales, has fraudulent record, and was part of a black market operation.

GUTTERS/STRIKES

Last November, a three-year-old Italian greyhound named Zipping Sarah won a race. Unfortunately, she tested positive for meth. Lucky for the owner, the winning prize was $4,000 and the fine was only $3,000. In June, the oldest known bottle of whiskey will be auctioned off for thousands of dollars. China launched a rocket into low orbit, and now it’s gonna crash down somewhere. The Sky Pool is opening this month in London. Bones from the Ice Age were discovered when a Las Vegas couple decided to install an in-ground pool. A woman bought a houseplant at Ikea which had a gecko hiding in it. It’s legal to be a kid again in Oklahoma and Texas under the Reasonable Childhood Independence bill, which both states passed last Wednesday, protecting parents from criminal charges if they let their kids play outside without supervision or stay home alone. A 19-year-old moving to Arkansasaccidentally rented a two-bedroom apartment in a senior living community. A man in the UK thought he was digging up milk bottles. Turns out, they were grenades.

And speaking of cryptocurrency, this 33-year-old became the first dogecoin millionaire. This 33-year-old probably could have used some crypto since he felt the need to steal costume jewelry and a baseball cap from a mall.  And sadly, this 33-year-old (or maybe 36-year-old, according to the police) died after being stabbed with a garden fork.

If you like fresh air, you might be able to get into an outdoor stadium in New York as they are opening to 33% capacity May 19. 33 people coofed themselves to death in Illinois and Virginia, including this 33-year-old pregnant mom who had very strange symptoms, like not being able to walk or talk.

The CDC had to walk back a headline its director made telling pregnant women they RECOMMEND they get the jab following their study utilizing self-reports from 30,000 pregnant women.

Josh Hawley was the one and only senator to say nay to the proposed hate crime bill. The Missouri Senate has until May 14th to vote on a bill making daylight saving time permanent and we may see Mark McCloskey run for Senate. 

The first farm-to-bowl retailer is opening in Ontario. The U.S. Botanic Garden in D.C. has until May 4th to respond to a request made by three Congressmen to display hemp since it’s federally legal. A US appeals court rejected Harborside’s Section 280E argument after dragging the case on for four years. Most Philadelphians won’t be peeing in cups to start a new job anymore, but Floridians will have to hit the streets gathering signatures after the Florida Supreme Court struck down their recreational initiative for not telling voters the good herb would remain federally illegal. And in three years, Virginia’s three cannabis oversight boards will be able to start working. 

Montana lawmakers passed House Bill 701 on a Tokin’ Tuesday to implement and change the recreational initiative voters passed in November after killing it the day before. Since there’s still a lawsuit pending from Wrong for Montana, the bill has a contingent voidness provision written into it.

Beavers beat the internet in British Columbia. A gender reveal party shook up several towns. Florida is fighting genetically engineered mosquitoes and flying turtles. A German bomb squad was called to investigate a sex toy in a baggie. Iowa’s oldest known muskie was caught after 20 years and 2,000 nets. Two rookie cops in D.C. totaled their cars drag racing. $46,000 was found in a Massachusetts home, but that won’t recover the $72,000 missing from a Kansas sheriff’s department evidence storage . And this bowler rolled the sweetest 300 game of his life with his late dad.

Sell trade secrets to China, get 33 months. Carry an unloaded gun as a felon, get 33 months as well. At least 300,000 people in 33 states are losing unemployment benefits earlier than expected. Spoiler alert: double dipping doesn’t work.

More than 33 million Britons received their first jab and the UK reported 33 coof deaths, just like Florida and Michigan. Movie theaters in New York will be able to increase their capacity to 33% next week. $33 million was awarded to fund projects to “safely” return children to school. And finally, a 33-year-old Pennsylvania mother was hospitalized with paralysis just 12 hours after receiving a Pfizer shot. The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System shows 88 paralysis reports related to Pfizer. In the bowl, Sir CMike suggested using OpenVAERS.

Per quirkess’ request, the 420 origin story is discussed along with some early references and strange occurrences that occurred on this day throughout history. This 4/20 didn’t go off without a hitch. Golden Gate Park was fenced up, barred off, and heavily guarded against any stoners hoping to toke there — for the second year in a row! And at 10 a.m. on this historically large sales day, a point-of-sales system used by over 1,000 dispensaries in Colorado along with 13 other states crashed, causing transactions to take almost an hour.

The Mississippi Supreme Court heard oral arguments this week for a legal challenge brought on by Madison city officials wanting to nullify the voter-approved medical weed market. Their argument? The state went from five to four congressional districts in 2000, but since lawmakers failed to update petitioner guidelines the initiative vote was invalid. It’s worth noting Measure 65 passed with 73% of the vote.

Governor Eric Holcomb of Indiana signed legislation providing an affirmative defense for motorists who test positive for THC or THC metabolites in their blood or urine if they were not responsible for an accident or show no signs of intoxication — a baby step in the right direction. In Idaho, Governor Brad Little signed legislation making it more difficult for initiatives or referendums to reach the ballot by requiring signatures from 6% of all 35 districts instead of 18 districts in the same timeframe — 18 months.

Maybe this is balanced out by the bill that died in Idaho’s legislature, which would have prohibited the legalization of ANY psychoactive substance that isn’t FDA-approved. Lawmakers in Florida also killed the bill proposing a THC cap. On the federal level, the US House passed the SAFE Banking Act, putting it into the Senate’s court and the Veterans Medical Marijuana Safe Harbor Act has been reintroduced. And finally, the US Environmental Protection Agency awarded a $100,000 grant to a hemp-brick-making company in Washington, the largest fed-given fund to industrial hemp research to date.

We enjoy our first Metal Moment from The Rev. Cyber Trucker. Sending rental karma his way!

Jumping worms are in Missouri now. You can find the referenced news clip here. A California went without a front door for days after calling the police on the robo-vacuum, which she thought was an intruder. If you’re looking for a house, you might be sad to find the sellers of this Albuquerque spaceship-themed home already accepted an offer. But you’ll be happy to find out this North Carolina couple survived a rabid bobcat attack and this Colorado five-year-old might be a bobcat whisperer. If your dog needs a job, Annheuser-Busch is hiring. But you might not want to work for this dad, who expects his babysitter to replace a $2,000 guitar broken by the three-year-old.
