Patrick O'Callahan must be high

THIS WEEK IN DUMB >>>

Not sure if you've had a chance to read the embarrassingly stupid blog post offered yesterday by Patrick O'Callahan over at the Trib. Just in case you haven't, here's the gist:

Emiel Kandi - yes, the same Emiel Kandi who heads Tacoma's medical marijuana dispensary C.O.B.R.A. Medical Group, and the same Emiel Kandi the Volcano quoted in our August cover story on the medical marijuana situation in Tacoma and Pierce County - is allegedly kind of a bad guy. Or, at the very least, he's the kind of guy who gets sued for providing hard money loans to those in financial trouble, taking a bizarre amount of enjoyment from seizing their homes and property when they fail to repay him. The Seattle Times recently published an article about Kandi's loan practices, and it doesn't exactly paint a nice picture of the man.

In a leap reminiscent of that scene from Harold & Kumar with the cheetah, O'Callahan draws the conclusion that because Kandi appears to be a less-than-savory character, AND operates a medical marijuana dispensary, the two things naturally go hand in hand. This is classic logical fallacy, and the kind that journalists would do well to avoid posting on their blog - lest they be ridiculed endlessly.  Especially if they're just piggybacking on the work of a larger paper.

Here's the structure of O'Callahan's post:

Emiel Kandi = bad.

Emiel Kandi runs a medical marijuana dispensary.

Therefore medical pot dispensaries = bad.

Ironically, Kandi responded to this very accusation in an e-mail sent out last week.

"Hard money lending and medical marijuana are two separate issues, please treat them as such even if you decide you don't like me after all," he asks."I sincerely apologize to all of my colleagues in the medical marijuana reform movement for this embarrassing personal attack....I didn't break any laws, my clinic is one of the few that has not been raided because I am towing the letter of the rather vague laws as my attorneys have advised me to do."

The Trib's blog seems to take particular delight in the way the Volcano's cover story "praised" Kandi for running "the tightest ship in town," in C.O.B.R.A.  ("Praised" is his word, not ours.) Apparently the fact that a businessman with questionable ethics could also operate a medical marijuana dispensary that acts extremely thoroughly in verifying patients' documentation before SELLING them medical marijuana confuses O'Callahan. This is, at best, another logical fallacy on his part. And a pretty dumb one, if you think about it.

More importantly, however, O'Callahan calls Tacoma's City Council "panic stricken," basically berating Mayor Strickland and Co. for reversing the decision made unilaterally by a city department to shut down all of Tacoma's medical marijuana dispensaries, and allow time for the legislature to do its job because hundreds of people (including Kandi) voiced concerns. O'Callahan quotes Kandi as saying at the time, "We shall fill your chambers and spill into the streets. We shall be heard."

He's right that not everyone involved in the medical marijuana movement or operating a dispensary is doing it purely out of goodwill for the sick and dying. Just like other pharmaceuticals, many are interested in medical marijuana for the money (gasp!). The medical marijuana movement is horribly convoluted with recreational pot smokers and profiteers who see it as the gateway to full-on legalization.

But, then again, how surprised should we be by this? When you've got a poorly written (alright, horribly written) law on the books - one intended to allow the sick and dying access to medical marijuana with a doctor's permission that doesn't even attempt to answer the question of how these patients are supposed to acquire that medical pot - you've already set the stage for it. Add in the fact that roughly 80 percent of the population supports marijuana for medical use, and it only gets messier.

The truth is, as we noted in our cover story, the current medical marijuana law doesn't provide any guidance or allowances for medical pot dispensaries. By most professional interpretations of the law, dispensaries are illegal. By others, they are allowed. This presents a two-fold problem.

First, the law is so poorly written that before Tacoma could figure out its stance on medical marijuana dispensaries (which took over a fucking year) roughly eight had already popped up. Whether people like Emiel Kandi are bad news or not, or in it for profit, these dispensaries do serve the sick and dying with a medicine their doctors and Washington state voters overwhelmingly agree they should have. Tacoma's lack of action or foresight has allowed many sick and dying patients to come to depend on these dispensaries. It's all tied together now.

Second, there's the court of public opinion. When voters overwhelmingly approved the current medical marijuana law (over ten years ago!) what they thought they were doing was giving medical marijuana access to the sick and dying. While the poorly written law has allowed opportunities for the Emiel Kandis of the world to open dispensaries, that has far more to do with the flaws in the law. Honestly, no one knows exactly what to make of it. When you write half a law, and try to legalize marijuana for a tiny portion of the population without providing any clear guidelines, this is what happens.

The bottom line is if the legislature would do its job we wouldn't be in this situation. The law needs clarity as fast as possible, or those who depend on medical marijuana will continue to be victimized by it, and O'Callahan will get to continue publishing stupid shit.

5 Things to Do Today: Parent's Night Out, Puget Sound Piano Trio, Calvin Johnson, Footfalls and Billy Roy Danger

Billy Roy Danger & The Rectifiers will be at Rock the Dock tonight.

FRIDAY, NOV. 19>>>

1. Hey, parents! It's Parent's Night Out at the Children's Museum of Tacoma. It's a chance to drop off your squirts between 6-9:30 p.m. to let the Children's Museum feed, teach and entertain them - while you go out and do something much more fun! Registration is required, but the good news is Parent's Night Out happens every third Friday, so jump on December, January and February. Ages 3-10.

2. The Puget Sound Piano Trio is back, y'all! David Requiro, Maria Sampen and Duane Hulbert (a 5 Things to Do Today regular, of late). After a fifteen-year absence, the Trio will bust out a free concert tonight at 7:30 p.m. inside Schneebeck Concert Hall at UPS.

3. The Hive Dwellers, Spencer Kelley and Trevor Dickson. Good coffee. Interesting statue controversy. Enough said. Or maybe not quite enough. K Record's icon Calvin Johnson is behind the Hive Dwellers, and the action starts at Amocat Café in Tacoma at 6:30 p.m. Your $5 cover will go to the Goddess of Commerce Gateway Project.

4. Every year the Barefoot Collective helps put on Footfalls, which is a chance for area dance companies to jointly show their chops under the umbrella of one awesome show. This year, the Barefoot Collective, MLK Ballet and BQDanza will be a part of the action going down at Studio 3 inside the Broadway Center. If you happen to miss it today, Footfalls runs again tomorrow - which is nice.

5. Billy Roy Danger & the Rectifiers will literally rock the dock tonight at Rock the Dock. If you know Billy Stoops of Junkyard Jane - and most Tacoma music fans do - you know Billy Roy Danger & the Rectifiers. Coincidentally, we're pretty sure we saw Stoops in full-spandex biking attire the other day at Stadium Thriftway, but that's really not important. The real question is: How many wasted people will jump in the Thea Foss tonight?

The best things in life are free

BONUS: Tacoma Art Place hosts the Fab-5 art exhibit "Colored" through the end of the month.

COMMUNITY ART DAY TOMORROW >>>

The Tacoma Arts Commission's Art at Work month has been raising awareness of the city's cultural offerings among natives and visitors alike since the beginning of this month. "It's amazing to me how many people living here don't really know about Third Thursday Artwalk," points out Speakeasy Arts Cooperative Director Angela Jossy as we toured galleries and businesses last night on the Art Bus, adding that anyone who hasn't experienced the Tacoma Artwalk is truly missing out on a cool urban experience.

That's the issue the Tacoma Arts Commission aims to change. Bringing awareness to Third Thursday Artwalk as well as the Tacoma Studio Tours, the Arts Symposium weekend, Art Slam, and hundreds of arts, musical and educational events is the main objective of Art at Work month. The month-long arts focus is a way of saying, "Stop your moaning, Tacoma: Here's what you've been missing!"

To that end, one of the coolest annual events during Art at Work month goes down this Saturday on Hilltop Tacoma. Tacoma Art Place, the non-profit art center that provides creative types access to affordable equipment and training, hosts its annual Community Art Day Nov. 20 - an offering free to the community. The no cost workshops include:

  • 10.m. to 1 p.m.: card making and printing
  • 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.: rip art with Linnea Granryd
  • 1:30-4:30 p.m.: 3-D weaving with video tape

That's just a sample of the workshops available this Saturday. Keep an eye on TAP's website for additions. Also, all supplies will be provided.

Besides the awesome free workshops, TAP will host an hourly raffle with such prizes as annual TAP memberships, TAP T-shirts and free admission to future TAP classes. Also, a silent auction will run throughout the day with the opportunity to bid on a three-course dinner for two at Pacific Grill; a print by artist Michaela Eaves; a one-of-a-kind purse by fiber artist Bo Chambers; spa services from Electraspa and more.

Community Art Day

Saturday, Nov. 20, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., free
Tacoma Art Place

Night Moves: Hive Dwellers, Daniel Blue, Keith Sweat, SweetKiss Momma and others ...

Spooning With Elmo will rock Kerby's Lounge in Sumner tonight.

LIVE MUSIC WARMS YOUR COLD BONES >>>

4th Ave Ale House Olympia - Downtown. The Brown Edition, Dorado. 21+. 9 pm.

Amocat Cafe Tacoma - Downtown. The Hive Dwellers, Trevor Dickson, Spencer Kelley. All Ages. 6:30 pm. $5.

  • The gradual coolifying of Amocat Cafe is about to get a serious bump tonight when Calvin Johnson's project, the Hive Dwellers, performs. Also on the bill will be solo sets from two of the people behind two of the best bands in Tacoma: Trevor Dickson of the Nightgowns and Spencer Kelly of Basemint. Read my full story here. – Rev. Adam McKinney

Beyond the Bridge Cafe Tacoma - Sixth Avenue. Open Mic Night. All Ages. 7 pm. NC.

Emerald Queen Casino Tacoma - Eastside. Keith Sweat. 21+. 8:30 pm. $40-$70.

  • If you're in the mood to have a butter-voiced elder statesman of soul make sweet, sweet love to your earholes, get thee to the Emerald Queen Casino, because late-'80s/early-'90s phenom Keith Sweat is set to perform there. There's no word on whether or not his enviable wardrobe of "Cosby sweaters" (as seen on the cover of his flawless Teddy Riley-produced debut LP Make It Last Forever) will be appearing with/on him, but it seems unlikely. At 49, odds are that Sweat will actually start sweating pretty early in the show, but the man's still got the pipes and still got the moves, and his proto-New Jack Swing material (chintzy keyboard presets aside) sounds just as groovy and sinful now as it did 23 years ago. - Jason Baxter

FuSE @ Pt Defiance Cafe and Casino Ruston. Billy Shew Band. 8 pm. NC.

Harbor Greens/Forza Wine Bar Gig Harbor. Jennifer Lind. 21+. 8 pm. NC.

Hell's Kitchen Tacoma - Downtown. Fro Blo's Birthday Bash, with Psychonaut Deathtrip, Unhailoed, .50 Caliber Nightmare, Helles, Scourge Schematic, Devils Of Loudon, Ether. 21+. 7 pm. NC.

Jazzbones Tacoma - Sixth Avenue. SweetKiss Momma, Midnight Salvage Company, Guns Of Nevada. 21+. 8 pm. $7.

  • The last time I saw SweetKiss Momma frontman Jeff Hamel I told him he needed a championship belt - something to signify his band's current standing as the reigning champs of Puyallup. He was modest, naturally, brushing the suggestion off, but I stand firm. SweetKiss Momma is far and away the best thing P-Town has going for it these days. Though I say that with mild sarcasm (I came from Puyallup so I feel comfortable making fun of it), I'm obviously not alone in my admiration for the band. Hamel tells me SweetKiss Momma recently signed distribution deals with "a number of European distributors and have obtained publicists both in the UK and USA." Friday SweetKiss Momma, Midnight Salvage Co. and Guns of Nevada will be at Jazzbones - a show that's also a celebration for Darrel Fortune and the Northwest Convergence Zone podcast. Fortune recently won fifth place in the radio personality category of King 5's Best of Western Washington competition, which is awesome. - Matt Driscoll

Kerby's Lounge Sumner. Spooning With Elmo. 21+. 9 pm. NC.

Le Voyeur Café and Lounge Olympia - Downtown. Hotter Than A Crotch, The Missionary Position, Eric Anarchy. 21+. 10 pm. NC.

Tonight at the Olympia Film Festival: Taqwacore

THE BIRTH OF PUNK ISLAM >>>

A documentary about punk rock and the active practice of Islam? Sounds messy, if not completely impossible, no?

Well, as Taqwacore: The Birth of Punk Islam - a film by written and directed by Omar Majeed - shows us, it does get messy, but anything is possible. Based on a book of the same name, written by Michael Muhammad Knight and now taught in some universities as a "Catcher in the Rye for young Muslims," - Taqwacore: The Birth of Punk Islam screens tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Capitol Theater. For more information on the Olympia Film Festival, go here.

Chris Terry featured at Fine Arts Gallery

The Pierce College Fine Arts Gallery is located on Level II of the Olympic Building at the Fort Steilacoom campus. For an extra adventure, cross the skybridge to it.

TIME FOR A VISIT TO PIERCE COLLEGE IN LAKEWOOD >>>

The press release said, "Internationally acclaimed painter Chris Terry will be the featured artist at the Pierce College Fort Steilacoom Fine Arts Gallery."

My first reaction when I read that was, "Yeah, right. Probably some super slick commercial shmuck like Bev Doolittle or Thomas Kinkade."

Then I looked Terry up on the Internet and was surprised to discover he's a damn fine painter.

Serious contemporary still life painting is something of an oxymoron. With the exception of George Morandi and some pop-style still life painters like Janet Fish nobody does that anymore. So I was pleasantly surprised to see Terry's paintings. His still life paintings are serious, somber, and beautifully composed with soft colors and lighting that set a wonderful mood. He is a worthy successor to Morandi, and he carries on a revered tradition without being old fashioned.
 
Terry has taught painting and drawing at Utah State University for more than 20 years and has won numerous awards, including the Utah Visual Artist Fellowship and a Western States Art Federation/National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. He has twice received a Fulbright Fellowship for Teaching and Research in Germany and was named a visiting artist in 2000 at the American Academy in Rome.
  
The Fine Arts Gallery is located at Pierce College Fort Steilacoom, 9401 Farwest Drive SW, Lakewood. It's an often overlooked gallery but well worth visiting, especially during the run of this show. Hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 8 a.m. to noon Friday. The show continues through Dec. 10.

More Broken Water

BONUS INTERVIEW >>>

A few days ago we posted an interview with Olympia band Broken Water, which the Volcano's Jason Baxter did with Jon Hanna and Abby Ingram as they finished up a recent tour.

Well, we held out a little. Here's the part you haven't read yet ...

WEEKLY VOLCANO: What was the best show you've played on tour and what's been the most disappointing?

HANNA: I'm going to leave Tijuana (out of the running), because that was just a whole different experience from any show I've ever played. I think the best show for me would be the one in LA, on Halloween. They totally decorated (downtown all-ages venue The Smell) and tons of people came out - apparently we have a lot of fans down there. The worst show we played was in Chico, California. I'm going to find Abby and let her tell you about this. ...

VOLCANO: Jon was just telling me about the worst night of tour, and he said it was Chico.

INGRAM: He said Chico? Yeah, that was pretty bad. It was early on, though, so it's fine - our spirits weren't broken yet. We played at like this sports bar, and it was just a weird scene. There were four people in there, and they were watching the game. The bathrooms were labeled "hotties" and "hosers," and there was a sign that said, "No dudes on the bar," and there were Slurpee shots. But it was still fun, in a weird way.

VOLCANO: Any road horror stories yet?

INGRAM: Probably not. It hasn't been too bad. It gets tense when people are in close quarters. Nothing's broken down. ... In San Francisco, we had to carry all of our equipment up three flights, because we couldn't leave it in the van.

In LA, we played at The Smell on Halloween. It was really cool, but the sound guy was really young. I think he was really stressed out, and he was by himself. He was having trouble getting our mics to work, and the crowd was being really impatient. This guy came on the stage and started talking to Kanako, and was like, "You guys should just play, people want you to play." And I said, "Well, I don't have a microphone, how do you want me to sing?" They were being jerks to the sound guy, but it was cool. Kanako sat down and told some stories about how she had first played The Smell ten years ago.

VOLCANO: When my band was on a West Coast tour recently, I drove over a pigeon and it was horrifying. How much road kill have you seen (or caused) driving up and down the I-5 on tour?

INGRAM: I don't think that we've hit anything - I haven't hit anything, and I haven't been notified if anyone else has. I think I saw a dead dog on the side of the road, on the way down the 5.

VOLCANO: That's pretty rough. Was that in California?

INGRAM: Yeah it was in California, but I don't remember where. I just remember thinking, "Oh my god, is that a dog?" It was this black, doggish-looking thing. Maybe it was a coyote.

THE PREFUNK: All Freakin' Night

The Jon Belushi of house cats ...

BRING ON THE WEEKEND >>>

Look, it's crappy outside. I get it. I smoke. I've been out there a few times today, and it isn't inviting. I'm honestly pretty sure it never got light, and there are times when the eternal precipitation and darkness can get a person down.

Don't be that person! At least not until Monday. Right now, it's Friday for gawd's sake- which means two very important things. Number one: You've probably got two days off ahead of you. Number two: It's time for your regular installment of The Prefunk, a weekly weekend primer for you and your liver - with a picture of an alcoholic household pet thrown in for good measure.

ALL FREAKIN' NIGHT at The Capitol Theater

Saturday, midnight - 7:30 a.m.

Olympia has more traditions than most places. It's the kind of town where history is important. It's the kind of place where people keep things alive, breathe new life into them, and rally together to make cool shit happen. It's the kind of place where people go to college, grow a beard, graduate from college, get a co-op membership, go back to college, and never leave ...

While it's doubtful that last part has much to do with anything, the Olympia institution that is All Freakin' Night is here once again - devouring the historic (there Olympia goes again with its history...) Capitol Theater Saturday night and into Sunday morning.

For the uninitiated, or the new faces in the Invisible Man seminar, All Freakin' Night is an annual part of the annual Olympia Film Festival - now in its glorious 27th year. A collection of cultish horror flicks and just plain strange stuff, All Freakin' Night has reached institution status because of a few things - not the least of which being its eccentricities, and the fact it literally offers Olympia the chance to sit in the Capitol Theater all freakin' night and hang out. Both are very cool, and what it's all about.

This year's strange cinematic offerings include 1983's Treasure of the Four Crowns, a story featuring, "renegade history professor and archaeological mercenary J.T. Striker," as well as 1982's Superstition, 1993's Freaked, 1988's Dead Heat, and 1983's The Being, a movie about an evil creature lurking in a local dump and attacking residents.

PREFUNK: It's a long night. Hell, it's All Freakin' Night. That's all I'm saying. You're going to need your energy ...

Luckily, we're here for you.
