Portuguese police will be lax on pot smokers during the Euro tournament because they’re a placid bunch. I wonder if they will be providing additional protection in pizza restaurants, convenience stores and ice-cream stands to avoid a munchies-stricken stampede.
Your tax dollars at work: Pentagon wastes $100M in unused, *refundable* but not refunded airline tickets.
