So once a month on a street called Abbott Kinney there’s something called “1st Fridays” where all the stores on that street stay open late. You know, I think there actually was a guy named Abbott Kinney. It’s kind of a cool name . . . and hearkening back to my “Yo! and Hey Man!” blog, I can just imagine people yelling out “Hey Abbott!” and “Yo Kinney!”
Anyway, there’s a new store that’s opened up on that street called “California Herbal Remedies” where you can get a 20% vanilla cake or even a 30% chocolate brownie that’s guaranteed to make your head spin for the entire day. All this can be yours if you go to a clinic, tell them you hurt your shoulder and say that Advil has stopped working to alleviate the pain.
Let me just say this: I’m all for the legalization of marijuana. I’ve never met someone who was high who acted like an asshole. On the other hand, I’ve met many a person who acted like an asshole when they were drunk. There should be a warning label on alcohol bottles that reads “Warning: Consumption of this fluid may turn you into an asshole.”
