Researchers say they have located the world's oldest stash of marijuana, in a tomb in a remote part of China.

    Hey, that's mine. I want it back. It's for a friend, I never touch the stuff myself.

        18 researchers spend 10 months getting 789 grams to the lab...and 11 grams are all that was tested. Where's the rest of it, hmmm?

          It didn't say they sent ALL the weed to the lab....

          Why would they need to test more than 11 grams? The rest? Still in China.

          Would you give up all of your stash?

          But it's nice to know that that part of china isn't really chinese, just "chinese eyed".

          It belonged to the late great King Tokealot.

            The 789 grams of dried cannabis was buried alongside a light-haired, blue-eyed Caucasian man,>>>>>

            My ancient relative! Praise be, he's been found. (They say we have the same eyes), & that's MY inheritance!

              Good thing it wasn't found in the United States. The DEA would have scored another victory in the war on drugs.

                  maybe it belong to the ancestors of Tommy Chong?

                      Paradise must be a great place. It kept the shaman so happy that he didn't bother to touch a bit of his stash in 2,700 years.
