Green-fingered seniors find their weed is pot

August 25 2006 at 03:53AM

Phoenix - Arizona seniors had no idea what the flourishing plant they nurtured in their driveway was until a passing deputy told them it was marijuana.

A Yavapai County sheriff's department said a deputy spotted the blooming two-metre-tall marijuana plant growing in the driveway of a retirement community near Prescott, north of Phoenix, earlier this week.

"The residents just thought it was a pretty weed and so they decided to nurture it," department spokesperson Susan Quayle told Reuters by telephone.

The officer yanked out the plant, which Quayle said was either "self-seeded or could have been dropped by a grandchild visiting the community".

"No citations were issued. The officer just educated them," she said.

Sucks that the guy yanked their plant. How would he like it if someone came into his yard and pulled his rose bushes out.

What were they all blind from birth? Looks like the deputy was the one that got schooled.

"Sorry, we didnt know"

*Sheriff leaves with the plant*


"Damn you Alfred, I told you we shouldn't put it in the front yard"

Some people dread senility, I'm looking forward too it. I'll finally get to do all the awful things I've been thinking about. Waving my dick at a nun, flicking off kids on their way to school, kicking small dogs, and most importantly going 30mph on the highway in the fast lane.
