Man used brain to get high: 'Every day there's something new and bizarre': police

---
Joshua Lee Long, 26, of Carlisle, is accused of using the brain's formaldehyde to soak marijuana cigarettes - smoking "wet marijuana" - state police say. He was charged Thursday with abuse of a corpse and is in already Cumberland County prison on burglary charges.
---
He even gave the brain a nickname - "Freddy" - state police say they learned in a recorded prison conversation.

The rest, with booking photo of a befuddled-looking Mr. Long, at link above.

What the actual heck?

Also, you haven't lived until you've spent an entire 12-hour night shift rasslin' with a 16 year old football player who's been doing wet marijuana. Me, three cops, two security guards and a couple big strong guys from the adult ICU. Good times.

 

[bluesneakers]

What the what.

Alas, poor Freddy!

I knew him, Godot: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath gotten me high af a thousand times.

Don't I know it. (Winces.) Lord, don't I know.

From the OP link:

As coroner, Hall said he is the person authorized to dispose of the brain. "We're still looking for the rightful owner," Henneman said.

Surely, someone misses it. :sheesh:

 

[wfgodot]

And of course the official soundtrack.

And of course this led Side Two.

Wouldn't be an OST without this little ditty.

Wait, what?

[HoneyWest]

I'd say the owner is likely in Hollywood or in DC. Either way, they've operated for years without it, IMHO.

Hahaha! That's the first thing I thought of when you posted this story! As a side note, I used to have that very song set as the ringtone for my ex. :giggle:

There are certain topic lines I see on here, and instantly think, this has to have been posted by wfgodot. Thanks, wfgodot, for always keeping it interesting.
