The sad thing is there probably is an institute like this somewhere...and it is getting your tax dollars for its research. :)

No, this is satire of a real study.

Every day over the first half year of this year, I visited a lockdown ward of "residents," as they are called. You're right, there's nothing fun or funny about Alzheimers or dementia.

The dope smoking Alzheimers patient still suffers from memory loss, impaired decision-making,"
In short, he turns into a Democrat.

I'm not usually such a 'wet blanket' (I even have a bit of 'gallows humor'). Maybe it is because I experienced this up close and personal but this is not funny. I watched a warm, bright intelligent, woman go through paranoia and delusions to slip very quickly into a basically vegetative state where she stayed for about 14 months (whole process about 18 to 24 months).
I also watched my father take care of her, cry over her, and rage at the world because of it.
One thing I will say is that Hospice is one of the best things I have ever run across. They were absolutely wonderful people. I urge everyone to give to them.

I'm not able to be a Hospice volunteer but I've thought of going back just to help feed someone. It's that long walk down the corridors, the smells ... selfish, I know.

I knew that marijuana had medicinal effects.
It is also good for hallitosis. People with hallitosis smoked two joints a day and after a week, nobody could tell they had hallitosis any more.

I just finished reading a study done by the al-Qaeda Institute Of Airline Travel that claims that C4 placed into Nikes can cure stinky feet.

The actual study was by the Scripts Institute. Pretty much the same conclusion, without the joking.
The story appeared on CNN via Reuters and on Fox

If there is something in hemp that helps, let drug companies extract and refine this, for maximize the results, for physicians descriptions, just like any other beneficial drug, to be taken orally, or needle, or patch.
That's a far cry from laying marijuana open to America's mass market.

You freaked me out. I thought you meant the C4 and stinky Nikes thing. I heard Rush talking about the marijuana thing today so it surprised me to see Scrappleface doing a satire on it. It's getting tough to do comedy in this country anymore.
