In this so called study they say that heavy pot use increases testicular cancer by 70%. There are a couple of small problems. The study was funded by an anti-drug government organization that is biased and the The National Cancer Institute another government organization still staffed by bush appointees. If you do the #'s it's statically insignificant, testicular cancer is very rare, accounting for only 1 percent of all cancers in the U.S., 8,000 men are diagnosed with testicular cancer each year. The population is about 152,000,000 males If you take the percentage of males that age that smoke pot 15-25%, when you do the math the whole thing is ridiculous and means nothing.

Two Hippies are walking down a railroad track stoned.
One Hippie says, "This is a really long f*@king staircase!"
The other Hippie says "I don't mind the stairs, it's this low f*@king handrail that’s killing me."
