Today's weed isn't what it was back then - much more potent with greater potential for serious problems (my two half-brothers are "living" testimony). <BR/><BR/>Take at least a few weeks off to really get your head clear. You will find that God very much prefers relating to the real you - without the artificial alteration. The greater the clarity, the fewer the stumbles. Even now, when I allow myself the extra glass or three of wine, I regret it (not just in the morning).<BR/><BR/>And keep looking up!<BR/><BR/>Smoov / NB? - Just yesterday I was wondering about you.

I just thought the irony was worth a chuckle.<BR/><BR/>In my further defense, I can offer a free tour of the 200+ gallons of wine in various states of development in my basement.<BR/><BR/>Back to pot, though, I think one of the problems with it is that the dosage really can't be titrated the way alcohol can. You can't really have the equivalent of two glasses of wine with dinner in the sense that if you smoke cannabis you become truly and essentially altered. <BR/><BR/>And it's amazing how it arrests development so insidiously. I find it so sad to talk to the young ones these days who harbor the same self-destructive attitudes about pot that we did when we were young. Just try arguing with a 17 year-old who says there's nothing wrong with it, that everybody does it, right after they got kicked out of school for possession or for testing positive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-25689941316391925222008-12-17T01:38:00.000-08:002008-12-17T01:38:00.000-08:00Just so you guys know...not all Canadians are like...Just so you guys know...not all Canadians are like that.
