Pick of the Week
Sunday the 24th

What are you, high? You think people fighting for the right to use marijuana for medical reasons is just one big fatty joke? Well, you're wrong. Still, Howard Dover of GreenTherapy.com will use humor in the battle, with another outrageous comedy show benefit-ting medical marijuana patients and supportive organizations. Joe Rogan (Fear Factor), Bill Dwyer (Extreme Dodgeball and Battlebots), and Ngaio Bealum are among those bringing laughs to this serious issue, over which California has become a widely watched state. Last year's event, Dover notes, "only raised enough for a couple of ounces," so please bring all your friends. The Green-Eyed Ladies burlesque troupe will also perform, adding sauciness to the sass. 8:20 p.m. (4:20 p.m. in Portugal). $20; $10 with compassion club card or doctor's note. Comedy Store, 8433 Sunset Blvd., L.A., (323) 656-6225. www.Greentherapy.com
