Welcome to Detroit’s cannabis college, recently opened with courses on how to grow marijuana - and harvest, cook and sell it too - after Michigan legalized the drug as a medicine. Students get instruction from horticulturalists, doctors and lawyers as well as hands-on experience cultivating plants and guidance on how to protect their stash from the criminal element.

I wonder if the syllabus is printed on rolling papers. Word on the street is that the midterm on midgrades is a doobie…I mean doozy.

Another dispatch from up here in Canadia, where at the Toronto International Film Festival, during a presentation of a film that’s about him and the White Stripes (Under Great White Northern Lights) Jack White entertained the crowd by pulling a Kanye. But not really. But maybe, kind of?

Yes, it’s in poor taste to make fun of a guy who’s getting torn from his family and put in prison for a few years, but:

a) it’s Plaxico Burress, who’s dumber, more annoying, and more selfish than the average wideout;
b) it’s Plaxico Burress;
c) it’s a New York Giant;
d) he shot himself in the fucking leg, and then got charged with a crime because of it, which scores about a 7.5 on the Unintentional Comedy Scale.

Anyway, he’s getting sent away to the clink today, and, based on speculation, will be eligible to play ball again when he’s 35. Given the fact that receivers tend to get faster with age, he should be fine. Oh wait, they don’t? Hm. Maybe he could rejoin the draft and get picked by the Lions.

Also: Ten bucks New England fans are making jokes at least fifteen times more mean-spirited than this post.

Here’s proof that Eminem’s still relevant. Especially when he’s not using that fake German accent.

Our good friend ET caught up with Detroit emcee Finale to discuss his J Dilla tribute, “Paid Homage.” Production on the song is handled by Flying Lotus.

It’s a recap of what happened the first time we met face to face.
