Greetings fellow Bizarros:
I remember parking when I was a teenager. There was a
Lutheran church in my neighborhood that had a very poorly
lit parking lot. More than a few of my dates detoured via
that parking lot before driving home.
But things have apparently changed to suit a more fast-
paced age. I just read a story online describing the arrest
of a couple, 19 and 20-years-old, who were pulled over for
driving under the influence of alcohol, and also happened
to be naked.
The arresting trooper said a 19-year-old man, who was
driving the car, was cited for being under the influence
of alcohol and embracing while driving. Embracing?
The 20-year-old female passenger was cited for possession
of alcohol after the trooper spotted her trying to place
a wine bottle on the floor of the vehicle.
"There were some acts of physical intimacy going on in the
vehicle that were best saved for not driving down the
freeway," the trooper said. "We harp on the fact that being
impaired is so dangerous, but being distracted is equally
as dangerous. I can't think of anything more distracting
than this."
Bizarrely,
Lewis

"Last Dance With Mary Jane" ? what a tease of a title. I
thought it was going to be a bizarre and creepy story of
someone dancing with a corpse, but nooooo, it was just
about growing hemp!
[If the first thing you thought about after reading that
title was a corpse, you might have some issues!]
Hi Lewis, Re: "So what is this bizarre prejudice against
marijuana and anything remotely related to it?" I think
the answer lies with Big Tobacco and Big Cotton, our usual
reasons for doing things that go against our own national
interests- lobbyists... Keep up the good work, Jennifer
Hey Lewis! The reason for the laws against marijuana are
so pervasive is pure prejudice. After prohibition was re-
pealed J. Edgar had a bunch of agents (all white) that had
nothing to do and seeing it was the middle of the depression
these agents would have been out of work and we all know
what happens when you have A bunch of out of work white
guys with guns hanging around! What to do? AH HA! lets pick
on the black folks! After all, they have no political or
economic power! -H.R.
[The war on marijuana and it's smokers is an old one. This
link goes to clip from a anti marijuana film from 1936!]

Hi Lewis, Before you take a stand on this issue check out
the facts, over 90 percent of Drug addicts, started on
marijuana. Does this tell you something? -Jerry Russo
[Hmmm...I wonder how many started with alcohol before
marijuana??? I think I see a trend.]
