697...Yet Another Reason To Visit Iowa

The Omaha World-Herald, which is in Nebraska but smack dab on the border with Council Bluffs, Iowa, reports this morning that the state with the bland image yet both voted for Obama and legalized gay marriage and has no helmet laws for motorcycles ensuring a constant supply of organs for transplant, is considering legalizing the evil drug marijuana for medicinal purposes.

The Iowa Pharmacy Board plans to examine current science and medical findings and hear testimony from doctors and patients. It also will review federal and state drug laws, including those in states that allow marijuana use for medical treatment.

Happier Russell Barth?

536...Time For SuperEx To Step Up To The Plate

The butter plate that is.

When one door closes another one opens.

WHO TV in Des Moines reports that an web poll conducted by the Iowa State Fair on whether or not the fair should feature a statue of the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson, a poll that attracted more than 100,000 votes has, by a 65 to 35 margin, said no to the statue.

The WHO TV poll was even higher in its rejection of the statue, scoring 70/30.

Door closes.

Door opens.

SuperEx in Ottawa opens next month and something like a butter statue, a life sized butter statue, of Michael Jackson could, should and will be the thing to get it over the top.

No need to thank me in words; ride tickets would be fine.
