    VANCOUVER -- Once the smoke clears, what will British author J.K. Rowling have to say about Hairy Pothead?

    Va p
    ncouverot advocate Marc Emery and co-author Dana Larsen -- who manages a Vancouver company that sells marijuana seeds by mail-order -- have penned a pot-filled parody of the Harry Potter boy-wizard saga entitled, Hairy Pothead & The Marijuana Stone.

    The book is set for release on Oct. 20 and follows the high-jinks of Hairy, "an ordinary boy -- until he is rescued by a biker, gets a glass bong, rides the magic bus, lives in a Cannabis Castle, attends Hempwards School of Herbcraft and Weedery, learns to play Qannabbi, does battle with an evil policeman, and smokes tons of fine marijuana."

    According to the book's website: "Hairy Pothead is a hilarious and subversive parody which will be enjoyed by anyone who gets a kick out of cannabis."

    It will be published by Cannabis Culture Magazine and includes 12 illustrations.

    Hairy Pothead thinks he is an ordinary boy - until he is rescued by a biker, gets a glass bong, rides the magic bus, lives in a Cannabis Castle, attends Hempwards School of Herbcraft and Weedery, learns to play Qannabbi, does battle with a policeman, and smokes tons of marijuana. The reason: Hairy Pothead is a Weedster!

    Come and meet Master Head Alwaze Duinthadope, Professor Moruvva McGanjagal, Professor Vacuous Vape, and all the rest of the Hempwards staff!

    Hairy Pothead is a hilarious and subversive parody which will be enjoyed by anyone who gets a kick out of cannabis.

    The book will be published by Cannabis Culture Magazine, and includes a dozen beautiful illustrations to accompany the story.

  3. I want this book lol :D
     
  4. WOW 400 somethin posts in this month !!!!!????? wtf do you live on here???
     
  5. I recently watched a show on Mark Emery. Stand up dude. Cannabis activist and seed bank owner who's fighting extradition to the states as I type this.

  6. Funny thing is it actually looks good.. I might have to pick that up!
     

  7. You know, you'd think considering you have 400 posts and still a neg rep you might leave, or at least start over. That comment isn't that bad, but it's still completely unnecessary. baccus has been a very positive member of the community over the past month. A lot of ppl get addicted to the city at first.

    He never posts garbage like that.
     
  8. "pot pusher" is very disrespectful to marc emery, and if you smoke pot you should never disrespect marc emery, he has contributed a large amout to the cannabis culture (including the magazine haha)
     
  9. can see how this would be funny

    normalyl though..not a big fan of parodies
     
  10. i am totally getting this book.

    second. about the 400 posts. i have been really busy with web design projects, so i post here and there during work. and sense it is an 8 hour shift, you do the math :)
     
  11. haha i was wondering why you post so much haha
     
  12. I'll definately be buying it when it comes out and JK Rowling needs to smoke some weed if she gets pissed.
     


  13. How the hell do you think she wrote those 7 books? Well, maybe there was some caffiene pills or coke involved too.

    But I think I'll be getting this book, it looks good for a fiction book based around weed.
     

  14. By me saying she should smoke weed, I wasn't implying that she didn't in the first place. I just know that when something really pisses me off, getting high cools my jets.
     
  15. I'm pretty sure that was the title of the news article, not what bacchus said.

    The book actually looks good, but I doubt i'll get it.
