Children need Weed
You may be aware that today is 'Children need Weed' day.
People all over the country are doing crazy things to raise money: sitting in baths of baked beans, wearing fancy dress, jogging 100 miles whilst riding a unicycle... those sorts of things. Whilst I cringe at all this wackiness, I applaud the sentiment: raising enough money so every kid in the country can get a sneaky puff of Mary Jane, a sly toke of dope, a quick pull on a bit of blow. Some children, according to the harrowing reports I've seen on TV, have never had the opportunity to 'get high with a little help from their friends'. It's so sad. I know they make these short films featuring wide-eyed innocents with dirty smudges on their cheeks and bad haircuts to pull at your heart-strings, but even so. One child, little Billy, said his mum used to spend all day on the sofa smoking 'big smelly reefers' and eating Pringles and Drifters and never gave him a go. I tell you, that had me in tears.
I'm doing my bit. I've come into work wearing a hilarious emu suit (you know the type, where it looks like I'm riding the thing) and have donated an ounce to my local children's home.
Puff away little kiddies, puff away.
