OregonMouse member Registered: 02/03/06 Posts: 6799 Loc: Gateway to Columbia Gorge	From my eldest son: Quote: Bad grouping of headlines on BBC today: "Scientists Find New Human Species" "The Monkees Reunite for US Tour" (Apologies to any Monkees fans on this site) I found an even more interesting one on on "the other lightweight backpacking forum," but to see it you'll have to go here. Perhaps carrying "multiple use" a bit too far?

Gershon member Registered: 07/08/11 Posts: 1110 Loc: Colorado	This was in my local paper today: "News update: A lot of pot, back to school" There are two stories. One about finding a pot growing operation and the other about going back to school.. _________________________ http://48statehike.blogspot.com/
