"Hailed the fastest joint roller in all of Phuket, 30 year old Phuketian Ativat Janmuangthai won a cash prize and a trophy for his ability to roll up cannabis into a smokeable form faster than any other contestant at the competition on Saturday.

Having more than five years of practice, Ativat has no trouble strapping up a joint with his eyes closed, his friends said proudly." (from the article)

In my misspent youth of the teens/twenties, I was the guy in my group who was the best roller and thus always rolled. Moreover, there was an unwritten code that 'He who rolled it, Lit it'. Where I lived, we had much more hashish than weed, so I always snuck a wee bit extra hash into the top of the dooby as a 'self-reward' for being so good at rolling.

It is amazing that I am still alive and have never been to jail.

That is more than 6 times more shops than in Amsterdam!! (150/160 shops)
