Reefer Madness Strikes Mid-Level Celebrities!

By Michael Musto, Tuesday, Apr. 1 2008 @ 3:00PM
Comments (10)


You too should be able to smoke pot. . . (if you're seriously ill. . . )

A bunch of heathen celebs have become recklessly engaged in the act of promoting marijuana! It's true, familiar names like Lewis Black, Savion Glover, Montel Wiilliams, Michelle Phillips, and Jackie Martling are brazenly going on public record to say pot should be instantly legalized! These deeply conflicted lowlives are on the event committee for a May 14th event at Highline Ballroom (431 W. 16 Street) that will shamelessly celebrate the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP.org), a disgraceful hedonistic assemblage of bible-haters who believe in compulsively passing the dutchie. Oh, wait a minute. Hold that toke. Can that cannabis. On closer inspection, it says on the release that "MPP is leading the fight to gain medical marijuana access for seriously ill New Yorkers who have the approval of their physicians." You mean that's all this is? It's not to make weed OK for everyone and their grandma? Wusses!

I respectfully refer to Jackie Martling's old band, "The Off Hour Rockers," who recorded the immortal "Pot Song" with lyrics such as (to the tune of Beer Barrel Polka)"Roll Out the reefer/We'll have some illegal fun, Roll Out the reefer, and You'll all be sto-o-ned by the time this song is done/
So won't you roll out the reefer, toke it and pass it around!/You'll find that people smoke Marijuana all over town/ Because wherever people smoke Marijuana, the blues just can't be found!" Sure, its, eh, medical.

Jackie Martling NEEDS some serious pot after his career destroying departure from Howard Stern.

Wow, Tallulah Bankhead's back. Definitely not a wuss, see http://www.veryimportantpotheads.com/site/bankhead.html for her high-level bio.

It wouldn't be as much fun if it were legal.

The Late Tallulah Bankhead says:

Yes VIPelle, I smoked reefer. I needed it medically, for my nerves. It also helped me survive the general ennui I had for the THEATER. Yes, I was a great actress, but I was also much, much more...I was a woman. I needed more.
Peyote helped too, dahling.

I goofed on the Bankhead link, it's www.VeryImportantPotheads.com/site/bankhead.htm (no "l")

As to it being more fun illegal, is losing your job, your liberty, or your family fun? 800,000 Americans are arrested yearly for pot, and over 20 million have seen arrest since pot-hibition began in 1937. VIPs included among those US arrests are: Louis Armstrong, Dan Aykroyd, Candy Barr, Lord Buckley, Neal Cassady, Macaulay Culkin, Bob Denver, Art Garfunkel, Gene Krupa, Mezz Mezzrow, Robert Mitchum, Willie Nelson, Anita O'Day, Aaron Sorkin, and Ron White. I feel so much safer now.
