Sander Mecca went to jail for two years for selling ecstasy in Sao Paulo because Brazil has no minimum threshold for when possession becomes dealing. Sads! Meanwhile, Argentina is about to decriminalize possession of some drugs. Having spent the semester during and after September 11th there, I can vouch for the quality of Argentine drugs, which are lots of fun and I encourage students to study abroad there and do them.
It’s also nice to see the NY Times comfortably use the word rave without quotation marks, or call it a Ra ve the way they still refer to websites as Web sites.
Sander looks even moodier and cuter in the b/w photo in the print copy. Who’s that on his shirt? It looks like Viggo the Carpathian (scourge of the EPA). What a babe.
