My Daily Toke

While David was making his rounds to network and cable news shows last week to promote his work with Feeding America he stopped over at Fox and Friends where he was asked his opinion about Judge Sonia Sotomayor. David replied by saying “I think Latina women are, I mean, it depends on the woman, but I think they are very, they have great judgment, but there are some that are just nuts. I’m just saying.” Let’s start by asking Fox and Friends why they feel David Arquette was a qualified person to discuss politics with? David swears he was trying to be funny and has issued an apology claiming he has “love” for Latina women.

“I would like to issue an apology for the comments I made on Fox and Friends. My intent was to be humorous and not offensive,” “I have nothing but love and respect for Latina women and women in general of all cultural backgrounds. What saddens me most is that it took away from the issue of Hunger in America for which I was on the show to begin with,” he continued. “I work in a pantry in Venice California with a Hispanic women named Delpia (who has been feeding people at St. Joseph’s Center for 29 years) and she is my personal hero. Having been raised in Los Angeles I have grown up with a deep and profound love for the Latino culture.”

I’m not going to lie, It’s a decent apology and as weird as it sounds I want to believe the story. This blunt’s for you David simply for the fact you’re doing another scream apology you gave. Also I don’t blame just David for this statement, Fox and Friends has this thing where they ask you random questions about nothing you’re trying to discuss simply to get an unorthodox answer. This blunt’s for you David but you have to share with you’re Latina friends.

Finally, a pro-marijuana group other than Norml has embraced TV advertising by releasing a commercial urging California residents to consider taxing and regulating the sale of cannabis. The commericail which was sponsored & created by the Marijuana Policy Project and in the 30 second advert a crazy eyed nice middle aged lady reminds viewers that CA is deep in debt and the millions of marijuana consumers are willing to pay taxes on a substance that is less harmful than alcohol. The commercial is also already being met with opposition and some TV stations in California won’t run the advertisement. I’m definately blowing smoke all around for this commercial and its’ step in the right direction.

p>That’s right world Whitney and her drugs voice are back!!!! News on her come back album has been released on her website, Whitneyhouston.com and we now have a release date and an album title. The album is called “I Look To You” and is supposed to be released on September 1st of this year. No matter how easy it may be to poke fun at Whitney’s antics and her famous quotes (crack is wack) but I can’t hate on her amazing voice. Whitney, who put out her first self titled album in 1985 has been in and out of the news with former husband Bobby Brown for a whole array of crazy shit from domestic abuse to drug use and became infamous for other then music for her Diane Sawyer interview and her classic quote “crack is wack”. Now that she’s fucking Clive Davis free from Bobby I’m looking foward to this album but either way it’s a win win situation. If her album is good I can appreciate her music & if it bombs I can mock her and laugh both over a few tokes. September 1st we’ll see if Whitney put down the pipe for the bong.

Not sure what to catagorize this as, motorcycle or car, but one thing is for sure it’s a whole lot of sexy.It was created by Francios Knorreck who resides in Italy. Taking an astonishing 10 years and 10,000 hours of work to make the Lavender motorcycle sidecar cost 15,000 euros to finish. The motorcycle portion has 3 yes I said 3 exausts while the sidecar was created by combining a Volkswagen Golf GTI, an Audi 80, and a Citroen Xantia car and comes equipped with golfwing doors.

I’m pretty sure Knorreck had a little to much free time on his hands and was a few tokes deep when he created this vehicle but we thank him none the less. No word on if he will sell his creation or how much it would go for but he’s bound to make a bundle. Keep the creativity going Knorreck, this blunt’s for you.

Ok if you’ve been in a coma for a week let me sum up what has happened to celeb blogger Perez Hilton. It started with Perez sharing words with Black Eyed Peas member Will.I.Am,who was upset at the blogger for a post about meth face Fergie, which turned into Perez calling Will a “fucking fag” and getting assaulted. He claimed Will was the one who assaulted him but Will’s general manager Polo Molina turned himself in to authorities and Will has denied all accusations.

After that GLADD (Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) became upset with Perez for using the slur and wanted him to apologize. In an interview with TMZ he said, “I am saddened GLAAD chose to victimize me further by criticizing me for how I non-violently dealt with a very scary situation that, unfortunately, turned violent.” I’m guessing that means we won’t hear that apology any time soon.

If that wasn’t bad enough Monday night world class douche bag singer John Mayer had a few thoughts for Perez about the incident which he of course twittered. Mayer writes “From the heart, what you experienced these last 24 hrs is a profound lack of control. You can’t blog the world, my friend.” I have a lot of questions I would like to ask creeper John but right now it’s just, what are you doing? Here’s a sample of his twittering:

Mayer: Perez Hilton’s video statement is so long that by the end of it his cut healed.

Perez: That’s real funny! Ha ha! And I’m sure you also think I “deserved” to get hit!

Mayer: I also want to train you in an old martial art called “Never Call A Black Dude a F**got Jitsu.”

Perez: Dude, I get it. I GET IT. But it’s not f**king funny to me. Karma would be me losing my site and going bankrupt or what have u.

Mayer ends his rant calling Perez a dumb shit. Wow when John Mayer is clowning you, you know you have some issues but we hope you push through(no pun intended) and Perez I’m taking a couple tokes for your self esteem you this evening.

Ok so over the last couple of years we have been lied to blessed with these anti-weed “Above the Influence” commercials where they usually state how if you smoke pot you will do stupid, reckless, and deadly things. When I watch a commercial I usually just smirk and change the channel but this latest commercial I saw made me fall on the floor with laughter. The commercial ablove titled “Shoulders” explains that if you smoke weed you’re close to the devil, stupid, a hillbilly, and will make your parents cry. They also say smoking weed will ruin your future, not get you into a good school, and you won’t have any friends. Oh I forgot Michael Phelps,Seth Rogen, Lil Wayne, Barack Obama, Barbra Streisand, & Willie Nelson never smoked weed…… wait they did and “inhaled” and turned out to be great leaders in their respective fields one being our nation’s leader. Herb enthusiasts have been used to this kind of propaganda for years but this one combines a little from every other commercial before it. What the creators of this commercial don’t know is that people now are smarter than the people of the past and we have access to the internet where we can seek and find the truth. Thanks for the humor Above the Influence members but we’re onto your agenda. Have a toke and learn something useful.

David S. Rohde, a reporter for the New York Times escaped from Taliban captivity Friday with Afghan reporter Tahi Ludin after more than 7 months of being held captive. On Friday Rohde & Ludin escaped by climbing over a wall of the compound they were being held and found a Pakistani army scout who lead them to a nearby base. The 2 were flown today to a U.S. military base in Bagram and are in good health. The 2 men along with a driver, who according to Rohde chose to stay and join the Taliban, were abducted November 10th south of Kabul on their way to interview a Taliban commander. Due to a request from the Times, The Associated Press & most other western news outlets didn’t report on the abductions because the publicity could negatively effect hostage rescue efforts.

David’s wife of 9 months(7 months of which David was held captive) thanked the Times, the U.S. government,and all others who helped the family during the kidnapping. To be honest when I hear about reporters getting abducted it usually doesn’t end well. Glad you’re safe and welcome home, this blunt’s for you.
