California's weed market is collapsing while Michigan's is stabilizing. Despite invisible margins for operators, Midwest consumers are buying up cheap weed in the Mitten State, which may soon surpass California in monthly sales despite 30M fewer residents.

I'm a Michigan Westsider, so I don't recall ever drinking Boston Coolers. But, I'll say, this Vernors drink is pretty dynamite.

1: Another great job of solving Michigan's problems by legislature. 2: Ohio's official beverage is . tomato juice? Ohio is so weird, man.

The most influential band of all time. Period.
It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and

Any weirdos out there want two tickets to see The Swell Season tonight at The Fillmore? Bought for my wife but she's not feeling it. Main floor seated. Good seats.

This is demonstrably wrong. There is countless evidence illegal immigrants actually boost coffers. You can have philosophical arguments about legal process, etc. but a fiscal argument is just inaccurate.
