I had a visit at my house from the FBI and the US Department of Agriculture today concerning my blog post about SuperWeed. I am fully complying with them and they are taking this very seriously.

Overall my interview with the feds went well and served as a reminder about how curiousity could put me too close to trouble than I'd like.

Photos are of the receipt, so to speak.

With thanks to Taylor, within 15 minutes of posting My Neighbor's Holiday Lights, Jason DeRusha emails me saying he's going to do a story on it. In under 2 hours he is outside my house. He joked with my neighbor that it wasn't the first time he stole one of my stories (true) and he said he has absolutely no problem stealing other people's stories (also true). Last time I saw him was when he got my great spot along the red carpet at the A Prairie Home Companion premiere which allowed him to flirt with Virginia Madsen. Ruthless.

Anyway, here's Jason's post about it and here's the video of the story.

The worst part is that WCCO broadcasted a map to my house. We get enough traffic already, not including the girl and her stuffed animal dancing in the lights the other night.

(The unnamed guy in the car is Brian Moen.)

My efforts to turn Danger's lack of spam filtering into a widely talked-about issue amongst the hiptop community has spawned, amongst other things, numerous postcards to my house. A couple of them I still have on the fridge. It keeps getting better and better: this card is signed, "Love, Danger Inc."
