In French, I'd say she's digging her grave with her teeth. Is there a similar expression in English?
Oh, joy.

More glory for New Jersey.

Let me get my party hat...

It's not news and it's not all that weird, but I wasn't sure where else to put it.

For a while in this country we were having drought conditions.
Especially to the East.
I heard a farmer interviewed on the radio who farmed hemp.

Yes, marijuana, but of a type that couldn't get you high. Or at least the marijuana version of a really really weak shandy - you'd make yourself sick before you felt an affect.

Cut to the Sundae clan driving to Great Yarmouth. EAST.
OMG - what's growing in that field?!

But I daredn't say anything.
Mum knows what it looks like from working with the Police (they had a special course on recognising drugs). What excuse do I have?
But it was. Really, obviously. Growing right up against the side of the road.

I wonder how many poor saps stopped and picked in vain...?

Who thinks they ran this story just so they could get that line in there?

For FSM's sake!
Poor baby. Glad to hear she's healing.

And for the record, no.
I may have handled some of the trouser variety when I was drunk, but never intentionally caused harm.

Oh poor little bugger. Not just bites, deep fucking bites that exposed her liver. My God.

Don't know if that's a pic of the snake in question or just stock pics of a snake to illustrate the point...


I love snakes. Lovely creatures. I have very fond memories of some baby Garter snakes we took on after my uncle died. They were adorable. Tiny little things, like thick shoelaces. They'd wrap around your fingers like a grownup wraps around your arm *chuckles*

Most of them didn't survive as I recall. The ones that did were mainly rehoused when they were a little older. I think Mum had had enough of snakes after Martin's escapologist pet python :p

This was a funny read.

In a rambling piece written earlier this month, titled "Is Sinead About To Hump Her Truck?", O'Connor writes: "I recently read of a woman in America who married and regularly humps her truck. I don't yet own a truck but I'm beginning to understand her head space. And am worried I too may be so desperate for sex that within days I might run up the road and hump Bray Cab's whole fleet in one hour."

Canadian workers ill after cannabis brownie mix-up

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-14770359

I like the Canadian response to this. In the States this would have turned into a shit-storm.

"... forgot about them ..." I can't imagine why.

You know, I'm beginning to suspect this stuff might actually be bad for you after all.

Woman arrested trying to reclaim lost dope


A New Zealand woman who lost a bag filled with cannabis was arrested when she tried to reclaim it as lost property from the local police station, media reported.

The bag, containing about 20 grams of marijuana separated in tinfoil wraps, a cannabis pipe and a mobile phone, was found at a ferry terminal in Picton on August 16, the Marlborough Express reported.

After it was handed over to police in the South Island town, the mobile phone rang and a male caller enquired about its whereabouts, so officers informed him it was at the Picton police station, the newspaper said.

Patricia Wright was arrested when she turned up at the station to reclaim the bag, immediately admitting the drugs and cannabis pipe were hers.

The 61-year-old received a six-month supervision order and was told to undergo counselling when she appeared in the Blenheim District Court on Monday.

Judge Peter Hobbs said Wright had a history of drug convictions, the newspaper said.
