We’ve got plenty of coverage from today’s press conference on Capitol Hill.  Congressman Barney Frank announced HR5843 and was followed by Rep. Clay & Rep. Lee, plus Allen St. Pierre, Rob Kampia, and Bill Piper.  The Drug Czar even sent Dr. David Murray to try to dazzle reporters with his 20-page full-color anti-pot propaganda.

Also our regularly scheduled Cannabis Science with Dr. Mitch.  Today we look at a study that shows family mealtimes – sitting around the table together for supper – improve the chances of teen girls avoiding marijuana use, but not teen boys.  (There are families that can get a teen boy to sit for a dinner at the table?)

Then we finish up the interview with Kevin Hoover, who grilled Deputy Drug Czar Scott Burns when he showed up in Arcata, California for a photo-op.

Finally, today is Intern Appreciation Day here at the Stash.  Find your nearest intern and give them a great big hug.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
