Medical marijuana
"It's official: The ill can toke up" (HT-H 6/15/00)
Well isn't that "special." What about those who are
not ill, you know the thousands that use it like the oth-
er thousands use alcohol. Of course alcohol has always
been used for "medicinal" purposes as well as recreational
(Except when it was against "The Law" -YAH RIGHT!)
Can anyone seethe hypocrisy in the entire concept of this
law and order way of life?
We all know that there are a lot of "closet pot smok-
ers." From doctors, lawyers, politicians, white collars,
blue collars, pastors and priests, to all levels up or
down, depending on your perspective, including those
who are paid to enforce said "laws" The exact number
is hard to discern because some people keep their mar-
ijuana use quiet.
Hey, life is a terminal state, so as you light up your
cigarette, suck up your favorite brew, pop your pre-
scribed pills, rush to meet your connection, orjust sit wait-
ing for the caffeine to kick in, think about this. The most
ill among us are those who are keeping this inhumane
game going.
Well the "Caffeine" just kicked in, so I am going for
my walk and check on what, to me, is real: the birds, the
trees, the sky, the sea. Some will say I am ill, but I don't
think there is anything wrong with me. What about you?
