FROM December 19, 2003

Portland Oregon's Voodoo Doughnut, home of the Tang doughnut, the caffeine doughnut, and the world-famously disgusting Robitussin doughnut (until the FDA smackdown), has created a new doughnut called "Maple Blazer Bluntz." It is a doughnut shaped like a blunt, rolled in cinnamon, with one end dipped in maple with a red-sprinkled ember. On game days, if the Blazers score at least 85 points, regardless of win, Blazer Bluntz cost 85 cents. If they don't hit 85 points, the price is $1. And if Qyntel Woods gets busted at any time during NBA season, they are lowering the price of the Blazer blunt to 55 cents.

Voodoo Doughnut. You can even get married there. And last week, Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney, Quasi) set a record for "Longest drum solo ever in a doughnut shop"--she played drums for one hour without stopping. No word if she was fueled by Blazer Bluntz, or Oregon cheeb.
