But it is addictive and allows me to see the future. And the future is Doritos.
The all blue eyes are pretty cool too.

I think we should all go have a beer and discuss why it should be banned.

Crap, I hate “Dune”... Book, movie or TV miniseries?

Funny, the article doesn’t say WHY it should be banned.Because somebody, somewhere might be enjoying themselves. So it has to be taxed, regulated, or banned.
