Bong threat clears out bus station in Boulder

Daily Kos

This morning, in Boulder, Colorado, another casualty of legalizing marijuana:

The report came in around 6:01 a.m. today after a security guard at the bus station found what he thought looked like a pipe bomb near the bike shelter on the east side of the station, according to police spokeswoman Kim Koblel.

The guard described the object as a foot-long plastic pipe that was capped at both ends.

The bus station was cleared out. Police began to close down joining streets. Luckily, before things came to a complete standstill, a police sergeant took a peek at the device and realized it was a bong.

"It was some kind of either marijuana storage or marijuana smoking device," Kobel said. "There was some marijuana in it."

Saturation Bonging, Cluster Bonging, Gravity Bong, Smart Bong, a 200lbs Bong, A Bong in the 12 megaton range, and area denial bongs. The mind boggles at the choices.

A roommate from years ago had a bong so tall you would hyperventilate before getting any smoke, thus doubling the effectiveness; I guess that was a saturation bong.

with an unsteady base. He filled it with Galliano liqueur and smoked it until the liquid was deep-brown - then knocked it over onto my Persian rug, the one which really tied the room together. Fucking oaf!

Sprayed the driver and myself with burning pot and bong water.
Took over six hours to clean that pinto enough to try to drive it back on base.

Ah youth.
