Steve Yegge is one of the bloggers I read almost religiously. His posts are full of insights on the software development topics and in general, and he is always ready with an amusing anecdote from his rich life. His last post Have you ever legalized marijuana? didn't disappoint either. The author explains "Shit's Easy Syndrome" (a difficult topic even for seasoned bloggers) in a gay romp that takes a reader from a light-hearted review of a book on "bugs in our mental software" to hapless VPs to many technical difficulties of legalizing a psychoactive drug extracted from the plant Cannabis sativa. But the most entertaining and educating part is the incredible story of the author's life.
