European travel guru Rick Steves has reefer madness. His best girl is named Mary Jane and every once in while he gets a visit from Puff the Magic Dragon. Face it, people, the man you've relied on to guide you through the historic wonders of the old world is one lost Europass away from becoming this guy.
Tonight at Kane Hall, Steves will join Roger Goodman, director of the King County Bar Association's Drug Policy Project, and Dr. Gregory Carter of the UW Medical School for a seminar called "Marijuana, the Unnecessary War."
Steves is in favor of legalization, but claims he's no pothead. He tells Nicole Brodeur of the Seattle Times:
"If I wasn't working so hard, I would smoke," he said. "I'm kind of a workaholic. I smoke overseas with European friends."Alcohol leads to other things, Steves said. Sex leads to other things.
"Pot causes us to enjoy the Beatles."

Seth, please.
Good job promoting the Steves event, but this is a ridiculous post.
Your pot jokes are original as the Old Testament and funny as trapeze accident.
You can do better better than spew this old windbag rhetoric, can't you?
Okay, I guess you can't.
"Wow, dude, like, you wrote that and posted it at 4:20."
You are the caricature you make fun of. How revealing.
Wait--so it was entirely coincidental that you posted it at 4:20? I assumed you were being sarcastic, so I erased my previous comment--didn't want to steal your thunder. You have to admit, that's kind of wild.
Er, NEaS, you might want to resort to better than bizarre yet somehow cliche metaphors if you're going to lambaste someone's joke style. That would be the pothead calling the kettle plaid, now wouldn't it? Seriously, this post couldn't be nearly as ridiculous as Seth's plaid sweaters.
There needs to be more Ichiro talk in this blog. I need my Ichiro.
