As you all know.....marijuana is basically legal in Colorado and Washington State now. You can go into a pot shop and buy happiness without a prescription written out for an imaginary
(in many cases) ailment or illness. It's still a federal crime though....so it's not without complications. I don't fully grasp the legalities and loopholes of that so I am not going to elaborate any further on that aspect of it.
Several other states are looking into legalizing marijuana, including Alaska (might be the third state to legalize). As soon as that happens I am going to get baked every day, sit at home, watch movies, eat pizza and chocolate. My size 29 Diesel leather pants will not fit on my big ass anymore the day pot becomes legal here. I will have to donate them to somebody with a skinny ass......NOOOOOOO!
Actually I'm joking. I have said it before, I'm not into weed, it makes me feel sick. But I am absolutely for legalizing it. I think all drugs should be legal. People do them ANYWAY.
And that's reality. Make it legal already, all of it. Of course tweak the laws somewhat. Educate the masses. When I did E I educated myself as much as I could about it and all kinds of other drugs too. I sat and read a plethora of information about that stuff for hours. No, I don't think that kids should do drugs, that includes teenagers. But I don't think that teenagers should drink and smoke either. But they do. I did. Smoked when I was 12, for a month. Had my first drunken episode when I was 13 and a few more after that. I don't smoke now, I hate smoking and I very rarely drink.
Even Obama made a statement recently where he said that he does not think that marijuana is any more harmful than alcohol. And I think he is right about that. He does think it's a vice and a waste of time and I agree with that too. And so is alcohol. If you get drunk or buzzed several times a week you are indulging in a vice and you are wasting your time and ruining your health. You are probably a major pain in the ass too (speaking from personal experience) if you are around others that are sober and have to deal with your drunken shit.
I can say this with fairly strong conviction, I am sure that I am healthier than a person that smokes and/or drinks on a regular basis even though I have experimented with several illegal drugs. Alcohol and cigarettes are drugs too albeit legal. The key is, I don't do drugs on a daily basis, not even weekly. More like once a year or every other year. I know, I am such a daredevil! I think certain drugs, if used with some finesse and sensitivity could be beneficial for personal growth. I have studied that enough to be convinced of it. And I am definitely interested in expanding my knowledge in that area. I want to KNOW. If you know what I mean.......
Some say that marijuana is a gateway drug. Being BORN is a gateway to all kinds of bad things. It is UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL to figure that out. We are born with everything we need. Unless we are born severely handicapped or into negative circumstances. But even some handicapped people become successful in many ways and showcase great examples of the strength of the human spirit. I ADMIRE them, the "unfortunate" (for a lack of a better word) that make IT happen, because I am myself a rather lazy human being.....so it's probably better that I stay away from pot! I mean, the last time I ate a pot cookie (like almost four years ago) I laid in bed and laughed like a madwoman for hours, at least I had a fun time!
So yeah, being born in itself is a gateway to all the temptations we are faced with in life. We all make mistakes and hopefully we grow and learn.
Hey, I ate the potato pierogis last night. Food is another gateway to possible disease. We all know that. The pierogis were OK, much better than the ones that you can buy at Fred Meyer but not as good as the ones at the Polish Deli in Vegas. Pierogi party at Tatiana's!
