Hey, it’s Laura again. Kevin says it’s okay if I drop by every few days with some MoJo stories we think you’ll like. Don’t worry, he’ll be back in the next post.

I can’t vouch for his cats, but Kevin Drum is one incredibly nice teetotaler in person. All the more reason his non-dirty-hippie’s guide to marijuana legalization is well worth a read. And when you’re done weeding that (sorry), here are three more stories readers are liking today:

1) This reporter fled the Mexican Army. Spread the word and you could save his life.

2) Drug War Quiz: Do you know which anti-pot ad campaign findings the White House buried in 2004? Dust off your short-term memory and test your drug war knowledge.

3) The latest Palin ethics complaint: She allegedly collected per diem payments for living in her Wasilla home. Palin ethics bingo, anyone?
