Happy 4/20!

That's right, today, Team Freak is officially known as Team Bake, for today is April 20th, or 4/20, the day that stoners everywhere celebrate marijuana. The origins of 420 have been traced back to 1971, when five high school students decided to meet up at 4:20, after which they set off in search of a marijuana crop, the existence of which they learned about via a treasure map. Despite several attempts, these intrepid weed seekers never found the crop, but began calling themselves "4:20." Today, blazer's the world over celebrate by lighting up each day at 4:20, and particularly, every year on 4/20. Of course, detractors will wonder why a special day is necessary to celebrate what you do everyday anyway. In fact, today on the Jim Rome Show (a popular sports talk radio show here in America,) while Rome tried to keep the show pointed at sports, the Clones (Rome's listeners) took over, and it became a skirmish between Team Bake and Anti-Team Bake. And it was hilarious. Happy 4/20! (Stoner culture info verified by Wikipedia)
