Amsterdam residents prefer that you piss in their canals, rather than their buildings.

For awhile, many people were concerned that the smoking ban would bring an end to the Netherlands famous “coffee shops.” And if this were the case, come July 1st, some 200 businesses in Amsterdam alone would be no longer.

The future of coffee shops in the Netherlands is still an uncertain one, but for the time being they will be safe. Patrons will still be allowed to buy and smoke marijuana in designated coffee shops but they will not be allowed to smoke tobacco. The enforcement of that will be interesting I’m sure!

I must say that as a smoker and a new resident to the Netherlands, I just find the smoking ban to be very un-European. For the moment you can still smoke cigarettes in just about every sit down restaurant in the country, but in a week it will be no more. Another freedom in another country gone.

So for anyone interested in visiting the Netherlands and checking out the unique coffee shop culture, buy your tickets soon. The days on those are numbered and one day soon they will be a fun little tale about the way things used to be.

The thought came to mind when I read that zero people had died from marijuana in the state of Florida in 2007. None, in a state of 18 million people, half of which are retarded.

Living here in Amsterdam, where marijuana can be purchased at some 200 coffee shops in the city, has gotten me to do a little research on the subject. I’d previously read that it isn’t possible to overdose from smoking marijuana because you just get too stoned and are no longer able to physically smoke, thereby making it humanely impossible to die by that means.

So I thought, well, what about ingesting it? Space cakes are big among tourists in Amsterdam, which are basically just baked goods like cakes and brownies filled with weed. I know a lot of people get sick from eating space cake because when you ingest marijuana it takes about an hour for the effects to kick in. Many people don’t realize this, thereby eating too much and getting sick. But I’d never read about anyone dying from this, so is this possible?

No, it is actually impossible to die from a marijuana overdose because apparently nobody ever has. The government has done research on this and apparently one would have to consume 1/3 of their body weight in marijuana in just 15 minutes for the dosage to be lethal.

There are perhaps 2 human beings on this planet even capable of that, professional eaters Joey Chestnut and Japanese superstar Takeru Kobayashi. Those guys can eat 60+ Nathan’s hot dogs in 12 minutes! That’s unbelievable, which of course means they are juicing.

*Lekker means “delicious” in Dutch and is used to describe everything from great food to nice balcony views to yes, even “delicious babes.”

The secret to making Holland’s best fries is the piss (that or the gooey white sauce on top).

British people often scratch their heads at why the Dutch do not appreciate their tourism.

I fully immersed myself in my Jackass Amsterdam Pictures of the Week segment by partaking in The Netherlands biggest holiday and dressing up like well…a jackass.

Gary Kasparov and the Flying Penis Helicopter inspired me to create a new ‘LOL’ category.

In Obama Leads Panamanian Candidate John McCain in National Polls, I look into the reason why John McCain is struggling with his base: their racism towards Latins.

When people complain about high oil prices, they often forget about the oil companies, who are massively affected because it takes oil to ship oil.

Barack Obama is doing so smashingly that he even won the endorsement of a former KKK member in our beloved Senate.

I invented an Amsterdam cocktail but have yet to try it out of fear that it may make me think that I know how to fly.

After a long day, Amsterdam fire fighters take a time out to enjoy some ice cream, before hitting up the parade to proudly display their giant rubber fists and pink feather boas.

I hate holding my backpack on the train, that’s why I prefer to leave it stuck in the door.
