We didn’t give it up for the obvious health reasons: that it is addictive in about one in six teenagers; that smoking and driving is a good way to get yourself killed

Charles Pierce:

There is one sure way for posterity to consider you a fuddy-duddy. That is to use the word "fuddy-duddy" twice in two sentences in the beginning of a column about how pot is bad for the nation.
