Man smokes joint to welcome new baby.

A Pennsylvania man is charged with possessing marijuana for smoking a joint to celebrate the birth of his child. The unidentified man is quoted as saying he wanted to get a buzz.



         But Did He Inhale?

Some new dads might hit the bar,
Or shout out loud “have a cigar!”
But our new papa saw no point
In lighting anything but a joint.

He may be thinking now, just maybe
It was no way to welcome baby.
He simply wanted to “get a buzz,”
But somebody noticed and called the fuzz.

What he did was rather provoking
Even though some others were smoking.
Those others, though, don’t share his lot
Because they didn’t share his pot.
