Wow Dominic!! God reeeaallyy loves youuuuu!

Angels up on high we sing!
They are high up with the King!

Is giving it to your coworkers legal?

@3) I left it out... and they just took it. It fell from heaven.

I'm assuming it was gone in about five minutes?

And that's how the entire staff of the Stranger was Anthraxed.

For serious, though - if you can receive it as an anonymous gift, can you receive it as a DIRECT gift, as long as no one has any evidence of you paying for it? Or giving it to someone else (like you're doing) as long as you aren't witnessed as accepting payment for it?

It's the Burning Man gift economy at work!

Dominic: Distribution of cannabis without state license is still a felony. But does that green stuff you allegedly handed out cannabis? In this state, at this time, only a very expensive test at the State Crime Lab can tell for sure.

A friend of ours brought to my attention today this gem published by King County Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg: The new definition of cannabis under Washington law means that in order to successfully prosecute for cannabis-related crimes in our state, a new quantitative analysis that can only be performed by the State Crime Lab on machinery that costs more than $100,000 must be performed. Previously, the law required simply a showing that the material contained some amount of THC which could be measured by a trained police officer using an inexpensive chemical testing kit.

Satterberg cautioned, "Now that only the state crime lab can analyze marijuana, police and prosecutors must be very careful not to overwhelm the crime lab, which is also our primary source for DNA and other forensic testing necessary to prove serious violent crimes."

I'm sure there's almost zero risk of ketamine-sprinkled or paraquat-poisoned pot delivered by your arch-enemies at the Seattle Times or other so-called journalistic endeavors.

But about that non-zero risk... don't be paranoid.

@8 - Ketamine's efficacy is reduced significantly if evaporated & smoked... I wouldn't expect any significant effects from ketamine-treated pot.

Hey, don't bogart.

Damn, i wish i was yer coworker!

i think you all should know that marijuana is addictive & will lower your IQ. i read it in the NYT today.

@13 And *I* heard that if you take pot JUST ONCE then your eyeballs fall out and your hair falls out and you go all crazy 'n stuff 'n jump out windows. Jenny's friend's cousin's neighbor took a pot at a pool party AND SHE DIED. Everybody just stood around and watched and didn't care because they were all CRAZY on POT.

Joni Balter has found your weakness and is testing its limits before getting you!

BE WARNED!

Satterberg has a really acute (and cute) sense of humor.

I'm practicing my prayers.

So, what were the strains listed on the bags? I plan on treating pot like wine and knowing about the terrior and other details about the different strains.

Currently I enjoy a nice Panama Red after dinner for a head buzz, although some Blue dream came by recently and its a nice mix of head and body buzz.

@15 for the Paranoia is just Paris in the Springtime win.

@6 stuckie:

No. Transfer of weed as a "gift" still constitutes delivery under the statute, and remains a crime. The exchange of money has nothing to do with it.

But realistically, law enforcement (at least in KC) isn't going to look very hard for this sort of thing. So let's all just take a tip from The Roots and, "stay cool muthafuckers, y'all know the rules...stay cool...stay cool"

Thank you, Heaven! You're the best Heaven, ever!

@20: As Dan Satterberg noted (see @7), any prosecutions for violations allegedly involving cannabis will have to wait in line for our overworked State Crime Lab with those of serious violent crime.

"Hello, Officer Forfeiturepays, this is the State Crime Lab. What can we do for you? Oh, you want this tested for THC content? Okay, we'll just set this murder scene DNA aside for a bit."

your coworkers should reward your beneficence with cookies! Mmm coooookies...
