The old shamrock vs grass battle..

So the Gardaí (the "police cops" of Ireland) have seized millions of euro worth of hash this last week.

I'm talking like a statue of liberty could be carved out of what they hauled in two separate operations.

The statistic on the news was that there's enough hash there to provide a joint for every person in the country.

And they're just sitting on it.

I mean, sure, rolling 4 million joints would be a tough job, particularly in a poorly ventilated sweatshop such as I'm envisaging, but it would provide employment for immigrants, gypsies and stoners alike, bringing people that are out of it, into it. Together. Sharing the love. And afterwards, they all get one hell of a day off.

I mean, logistically, it would be tough. Ecumenically... I don't even like to think.

But I reckon it could all be sorted by Paddy's day. Easy.

You'd send an envelope to every household, with joints for everybody. Even little ones for the kids, in cool skins.

Man, I'm telling ya, seriously, and I'm not joking now, it would be fucking MEGA.
