The tin canister that Irvin Rosenfeld picks up every month, filled to the brim with 300 marijuana cigarettes, is not something he tries to hide.

In fact, the 61-year-old Portsmouth native encourages a look, because he's got papers.

Rolling papers, sure, but legal ones, too. They show that the federal government not only approved his use of pot, but grows it for him at the University of Mississippi.

The feds have been doing that for 32 years now, providing him 10 marijuana cigarettes a day to ease pain.
