Arrgh, Matey! Reefer The Poop! Poop The Reefer!

This one is too good to pass up. From Dana Larsen via AlterNet.
Popeye is one of the world's most well-known and beloved animated characters. Since his creation, the pipe-puffing Popeye has become a global phenomenon, with millions of kids heartily munching on spinach in the hopes that it will make them as strong as the legendary sailor-man.

Yet is the spinach which gives Popeye his super-strength really a metaphor for another magical herb? Have children around the world been adoring a hero who is really a heavy consumer of the forbidden weed – marijuana?

No Below The Fold on this one. Just go read. It'll make your day. I hope Dobson doesn't find out about this one.
