It’s a week before Thanksgiving – what are you thankful for?  I’m thankful for the results of the election, with cannabis initiatives triumphing in 9 out of 10 tries.  Sometimes we get frustrated as cannabis activists, but just look at how far we’ve come!  25% of the American population is covered by some form of medical cannabis law.  When I was my brother Josh’s age, there was no medical cannabis, period.

Our friend Tere Joyce is going to be on leave for the next couple of weeks.  She is shooting a film today and next Thursday is Thanksgiving, which I will also be taking off.  So I’m replaying the interview with Ron Osborne’s alter-ego, Detective Sergeant Harry Palmer Jr., America’s #1 Drug Cop.

Then I’ve got more audio from the NORML Convention.  George Rohrbacher (from the NORML Board) talks about the 20 millionth arrest for marijuana that took place (by NORML estimates) on 10/10/2008.

Today’s Stash features a visit from Tere Joyce in Hollywood, who brings us the legendary Detective Sergeant Harry Palmer, Jr. VI, for an opposing point of view regarding California medical marijuana dispensaries.  Sgt. Palmer is well-respected in the law enforcement community, having previously won the Sgt. Stedenko Award for Busting Potheads in 2003.

And we continue busting out the NORML CON audio with the Welcoming Remarks from NORML Executive Director Allen St. Pierre.
