Productive Pot

Don't you just love irony?

The active chemical in Marijuana, with a most unfortunate unpronoucable chemist- given name, one I shall not even bother to include here (bla bla bla tri bla bla bla bla), is bringing a little sunshine to Alzheimer patients in the western world. It apparently delays the progression of the terrorizing brain disease.

Who would have ever thought that pot (as it is affectionately termed to many) would someday become Pulitzer prize worthy?

"Fascinating", I quote the CNN presenter at the end of this news segment. My sentiments exactly.

Isn't Marijuana supposed to contribute to brain drain? Did it not inspire propaganda-ist movies like Reefer Madness, sending clear messages of an unproductive society high on pot, destined to become like french fries on their linen furniture?

I sometimes forget that what destroys always creates.

Calling all aging hippies, time to puff puff pass.

I believe the correct term to "bla bla bla tri bla bla bla bla" is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol

is it true that only cool people smoke marijuana?

Apparently the latest cool is to not be cool....? Go figure.

But i guess that makes pot available to just about anyone cool or not.
