Ein Tabakbeutel mit rund 20 Gramm Marihuana verriet den „Hobbygärtner“, der in professionellem Stil mit einer Zuchtanlage Marihuanapflanzen anbaute. Der 22-jährige Mann aus dem Landkreis Regensburg war am Freitagabend bei einer Fahrzeugkontrolle in Langquaid der Polizei ins Netz gegangen. Im März 2010 hatte er im Landkreis Kelheim – nähere Ortsangaben machte die Polizei nicht – eine Wohnung gemietet, um dort Marihuana anzubauen.
In her 60 Minutes interview, triple Grammy winner Lady Gaga tells Anderson Cooper, "I smoke a lot of pot when I write music. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it for 60 Minutes that I'm like some sober human being 'cause I'm not. I drink a lot of whiskey and I smoke weed when I write. I don't do it a lot because it's not good for my voice."
Sit down, America; this may come as a shock. Sometimes Lady Gaga, among other people in the entertainment industry, gets high. I know, you think you know -- you've heard about that Charlie Sheen and that Lindsay Lohan and their arrests and their rehabs and E! True Hollywood Stories. But get this: Sometimes famous people just smoke a little weed and they don't even develop a substance abuse problem or go to jail. Crazier still, this happens all the time to regular folks as well.
Maybe this isn't revelatory to you, Cheech. The history of pop culture is infused with the herbal aroma of the "Harold and Kumar" franchise, certain green-themed Showtime series, and the Black Crowes' set list. Actor Jack Black has admitted to "an occasional celebratory jay," while Sarah Silverman says, "I have contempt for pretty much every drug other than pot." And Woody Harrelson and Snoop Dogg have practically made second careers of their enthusiasm for it, predilections slyly referenced in such mainstream venues as Martha Stewart's show.
