Profitable Joint Venture

A new "no joints zone" sign has proven so popular in Amsterdam, the city council decided to take advantage of the marketing opportunity:

The sign shows a red circle around a fat cannabis joint in a cloud of smoke sparked by white marijuana leaves. It has been installed at one square and surrounding streets in Amsterdam where young cannabis smokers are a nuisance

Soon after the installation on February 1, the first signs were stolen after which the Amsterdam council of De Baarsjes decided it would start selling what it believes is the world's first anti-cannabis road sign.

Over 400 consumers have approached the council to buy one of the "no joints" signs for 90 euros ($108)

Silk purse from a... uh... something.

What was I saying? Something about pigs? Yummm... pork rinds.
