Joint decision

[Amaterasu]

When I was novice and very much learning how the drug affected Me, I went to a friend's house at lunch and We partook.

I was a teller back then, and though I was sure that I would be out of balance by hundreds of dollars at the end of the day, I found I was out 2 cents, breaking My "balanced to the penny" record of over three months.

Thought i'd go all hippy on you, but for some reason my avatar keeps getting stretched, it should look like this;



...This is an 8-colour 'mandelbrot set' i ran on the Amiga many, many years ago, it's all based on naturally occurring algorithms (except for the smiley in the middle of course )

Yes i chose the colours but didn't know how it would turn out.....

heck i forgot most of this.. .....

She must not have ever worked with Jimi Hendrix, or Janus, or the "Dead",  the "Airplane"...this list goes on for a long while.

Considering that she was born in 1972 it was a little difficult to be manager of all those.

And I agree, each person is a different case, I think the problem is with the ones doing what other people do without knowing if their reaction is the same or not, they just see some reason for doing it and do not see that it doesn't in the same way with them.

Next time I see Da Weasel, Boss AC or Sam the Kid I'll have to ask them what they do prior to going on stage.

Da Weasel are from my home town and my sister knows them. They ended in 2010. I don't know if they smoke any thing before going on stage, but even if they do it doesn't mean that it makes them better.

Darn yes, i forgot about THEM

Ibuprofen was one of the worst, made me sick for days!

Sod that, i don't even take Aspirin anymore , just a cup of tea & a cigarette & ignore the pain, LOL

ETA: Just a shot of alcohol now & then, to cleanse the system

.. and why is it being looked as if cannabis use is the "symptom" and not the medication?

Because the reality is that the majority of people that are supporting the legalization are only using 'medicinal purposes' as a banner... when all they care about is getting high and escaping from reality

And I bet that holds for several here too

But you can always move to Uruguay

Uruguay First To Fully Legalize Marijuana

On July 31st 2013 Uruguay's lower house successfully passed a marijuana legalization bill. Setting Uruguay in position to become the first country that will legally regulate the production, distribution and sale of marijuana.

As much as i smoke.its not about escaping reality as much as accepting reality.otherwise drinking coffee could also be escaping reality.a person who drinks coffee is escaping the reality of not having any.we have gotten so use to having luxeries like coffeee that to not have it here in america would probably be closer to social chaos than cutting off weed to americans.i would propose that smoking pot is closer to the reality that humans have been living with for thousands of years than the prohibition reality the gov would like us to live in.
If we go by the research of all the health benefits of cannabis.like its nutritional and medicinal .it almost looks like drug testing is actually a way to slowly kill somebody.so that they are overworked and crippled relying on doctors until your short life is over and the gov doesnt have to pay out benefits for fourty years.

If im correct.only hemp seed has all the nutrients a human needs.no other plant other than flax seed even comes close.could it be that our creator actually designed us that way but humans have tried to disrupt the true perfect diet of longevity.

No you're incorrect.  Potatoes do.

no other plant other than flax seed even comes close.

No, potatoes do.

could it be that our creator actually designed us that way but humans have tried to disrupt the true perfect diet of longevity.

No it couldn't be.  That's just wishful thinking.

Basically, Cannabis smoking is linked to 8 types of cancer.  It does have benefits too.  It isn't a miracle any more than anything else.

The way I see it is this.  As soon as you are born you are dying.  Most things have pros and cons.  Cannabis does too.  Smoke it if you like but don't pretend it is something it isn't.  It has some benefits but it isn't different to other herbs in that respect.

Ya know, when I first started smoking weed, I thought it would be great for it to be legal, but, alas, that wasn't happenin'

Then they started the "medical" stick; I thought maybe some day I will "need" for medical reasons. Well...that day came, I now smoke as much for medical reasons as recreational ones. The thing is, I don't much like pharmaceutical weed as I do just plain ole "dirt weed", and its not the cost differences. Medical grade weed is far too potent for my "needs"; since I also use is as much as a "development tool" as I do for recreation, I kind of need it to NOT put me to sleep straight away.

So, yep I support the outright legalization. But you need to understand; it has never been about "escaping reality", I'm not even sure "how" One could escape reality when high on weed...reality is always there and weed don't make it go away...period

Nope, will be no moving to Uruguay; no need to...I'll just go back to Washington State (unless Texas follow soon

Hell: Uruguay and Washington should get together...import / export opportunity here...and it legal.
