GOT ANY COOKIES, BRO?

It seems the Jason Rapert brain freeze spewed so much political humor 
that an equally humongous gaffe got by most people.

The same time the Reverend Rapert was doing his thing, Supreme Leader 
Jerry Cox had an experienced police officer from Colorado come down 
to preach against all things pertaining to marijuana, pot, cannabis, 
hemp and chocolate chip cookies. ( His 40 pounds of experience hung 
proudly over his belt.)

The officer assured Jerry and all four of his followers that if 
Arkansas allowed medical marijuana, recreational marijuana, and two- 
for-one Ding Dong sales, this state would go to pot. ( Sorry, could 
not pass on that one.)

Jerry said Arkansas should not become the train wreck that Colorado has become.

So, if I understand Jerry, if all of us in Arkansas do a few doobies, 
we will be able to get away from the bottom in all of the national 
rankings and land somewhere near where Colorado is ranked. But I 
wouldn't hold my breath.
