@Dodgerblue: Exactly. What's worse is that if you are playing a part and throwing a hood over your head to cross the stage Equity will demand that you sign a chorus contract. It makes no sense. Comes from when the chorus had its own union and they will not give it up. They also can't be fired.

@Benedick: This seems crazy: "Actors on Broadway even have two contracts: Principal and Chorus. You are on a chorus contract if you play more than two parts." The Chorus actors must have the same bargaining power as the Latino guys who line up outside the hardware store near my house.

@SanFranLefty: i can't believe i never heard of it! i learn so much here... thank you! @homofascist: actually i'm a cheap date. any old weed is fine. it's just a matter of whether you take one hit or 10. i'm not a connoisseur, these pot snobs are way worse than wine snobs. and i don't stumble around wasted, just a whiff to blur the sharp edges a little. though it's ratbastards explanation for why i walk into rooms and forget why i'm there en route. he says, that's why they call it dope. whatever. @rptrcub: where the hell did you go? the last supper? they absolutely need to be dosed next time... the recipe nojo found for brownies looks excellent.

@SanFranLefty:
@homofascist:

There is an excellent brew pub in Toronto that makes a very good “Hemp” Ale (yes, I’ve had it a few times.)

@homofascist: Actually, you can infuse any oil – olive oil, grapeseed oil, etc. – with cannabis.

@SanFranLefty: Must agree. I don't even smoke and yet I know butter is the way it is done. I can only assume that baked is at such an advanced state she can just eat it like a salad.

@baked: I can't believe you had never heard of pot butter, baked. I'm so glad I could bring some happiness to your meal. Gawker horror stories here @rptrcub: And I think you have your own submission. Next time bring something made with infused butter.

@baked: After last night, I needed a hit. I dealt with a birther, a tenther and a deather (that whole verse in Psalms 109:8) along with Palin worship. Thank the FSM Mr. Cub and I are going to his folks in Florida at Christmas, and are only dealing with my mother's side (2 libs, 2 sane conservatives, and the rest really don't care) near that time.
