06/12/2004 Entry: "Dodope"

This Sunday in Lisbon -- responding to to the England v. France game-- the fuzz's message to would-be English hooligans:
it's safe to toke up. Drunks, however, may be denied entry to the stadium.

Also:

Rember, guys, how I asked you about the other meaning of the word "compromise"?

"I hate to say this, but I quite frankly felt that these officers had compromised their position. I remember thinking, ‘I cannot believe we are standing underneath a tree and we cannot see if this guy has a weapon pointed at us.’ "

So there. See? I don't always just make stuff up. That was from a story about cops tasering a treed burglary suspect. His accomplice claimed that:
"He inherited the property from his grandfather, the "famous investor, Merrill Lynch."
He said he and [the tasered guy] were there to dig up gold and silver buried by his grandfather.
Detectives noted, however, that Merrill Lynch isn’t a person. Instead, it is an investment firm formed in 1915 by Charles Merrill and Edmund Lynch.

And to think I probably would have fallen for that line...
