Earlier today, Sen. Majority Leader Dean Skelos talked about why he would be more supportive of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's measure to decriminalize holding small amounts of marijuana in public view if the amount considered legal was somewhat lessened. Skelos said, "It should be a violation - your following the policeman's order ? But being able to walk around with 10 joints in each ear and it only being a violation, that is wrong," according to [Capitol Tonight's State of Politics](http://www.capitaltonight.com/2012/06/the-day-we-imagined-10-joints-in-each-ear/). Cuomo's proposal would allow for possession of up to 25 grams of the substance to be legal out in the open air. All of this talk about joints in ears and 25 grams of marijuana is making us wonder what 25 grams looks like. Is it bigger than a breadbox? Here we have an offering from Cannabis.com, which purports to be [exactly 25 grams](http://boards.cannabis.com/attachments/cannabis-pictures/175866d1201314419-25-grams-c99-picture-1015.jpg). The question, obviously, is whether or not this is enough marijuana to make 20 joints that could fit in a pair of human ears.
