if you dont know there is a very important vote taking place in November called PROP 19 – to potentially legalize MARIJUANA in CALI if it goes through STM will open new offices there and you are all welcome. So who can stop this?
In all seriousness though – how is this a bad thing in a South African context? I mean right from the fact that it will control who grows, distributes and can buy it (this will also improve quality lets be fair) through to freeing up police and courts who waste their time arresting and prosecuting users and finally to the fact that the government can ‘sin’ tax the f**K out of the product!
I mean i cannot think of an argument as to why this shouldnt happen – and dont come with your crap that people will just sit around and smoke all day and be unproductive cause lets be fair the people who are going to do that are f**king doing it already – i cant imagine civil society will all decide to leave their jobs and stay home and get stoned!
The bottom line remains it is illegal currently and no matter how stupid it is our government will continue to spend their time on stopping smokers from have a cigi ANYWHERE rather than looking at more financially viable solutions to problems – BUT wait there may be a solution short term (although we think its complete crap) here it is . . .
This stuff is apparently FAKE WEED with real effects and IS legal? I know doesnt sound quite real but apparently its not bad – IF YOU WANT THE FULL STONER REVIEW GO HERE – this company has a whole range of the stuff that seems well marketed and pretty cool packaging – GO CHECK OUT THEIR SITE?

There may even be something in it for you – watch this space.
Some people think they don’t have souls, others that they’re the fieriest lovers.
If you want to see some facts about gingers, check this out. One of these is that Russian tradition declares that red hair is both a sign that a person holds a violent temper and craziness. Based on this video, I think they may be onto something:
There’s also a perception that most gingers are ugly. I’d agree that when they’re ugly, they’re very ugly, but this surely proves otherwise.
Normally we at STM as you know are fairly up to date with most of the interesting goings on in the world -- this is why im a bit concerned its taken us this long to find out about this . . .
Hopefully you have come across the absolute brilliance of ZAPIRO in our local newspapers - few people have the bravery / intelligence / political or social knowledge to be so abusive yet get their point across so well -- with merely a picture!
I am very happy and proud to see that he has gotten together some very talented people and started a show!
Zapiro
Zapiro is the man behind the dream and the name behind the scenes. Few people don’t know of his influential satirical work, and his unique brand of humour is what drives the concept behind ZA News. Needless to say, without Zapiro there would be no ZA News
Thierry Cassuto
Together with Zapiro, Thierry is the puppetmaster, the producer, the director, the head writer, the boss, the godfather and the final word on all things ZA. He is the Executive Producer and the constant eye of big brother at the ZANews studio. He also has a remarkable sense of humour for a Frenchman.
And now for the product . . .
We hope to keep you updated as the news is launched -- well done to the ZA NEWS TEAM cant wait to see more!
You may have seen that I ordered some stuff from 36 Boutiques earlier in the week. Well, I came home today only to find the parcel waiting for me. Packaged beautifully. Really cool contents. Only three days from order.
Well done guys, you have an impressed customer. If you’d also like to become a customer of theirs, let us know and we’ll send you an invite.
I’m sure you’ve all seen this infamous photo, Lunch Atop A Skyscraper taken on the Rockefeller Center in 1932 by Charles Ebbets.
Yeah, you know it.
In a similar (although admittedly not nearly as cool) fashion I saw this one recently which is of a worker at the One World Trade Center.
And then, as the internet tends to do, I ended up on a convoluted journey that ended up at this video. It’s just nuts. The internet. And this video. Make sure to watch from 2:00 onwards for guaranteed sweaty palms.
Due to some party planning we’ve been a bit quiet of late. The culmination of this was a monstrous night on Saturday which I must say has left me hurting. We’ll get back into the swing of things as our internal organs start functioning again. Hopefully this week sometime…
The new generations are changing the world. We use technology to gain information faster, we read magazines because books are too much of a commitment and we watch series because movies require hours that we just dont have! In the famous words of the infallible Henry David Thoreau 'We must suck the marrow out of life'. This site is going to help you do just that. This site is about the pieces of genius and interest that lay scattered amongst so much debris of everyday life - if only the world could do the same with everything. ENJOY!
