Bummer.

 

I always liked this song:

 

Eddie waited till he finished high school

He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo

He met a girl out there with a tattoo too

The future was wide open

They moved into a place they both could afford

He found a nightclub he could work at the door

She had a guitar and she taught him some chords

The sky was the limit

Into the great wide open

Under them skies of blue

Out in the great wide open

A rebel without a clue

The papers said Ed always played from the heart

He got an agent and a roadie named Bart

They made a record and it went in the charts

The sky was the limit

His leather jacket had chains that would jingle

They both met movie stars, partied and mingled

Their A&R man said "I don't hear a single"

The future was wide open

Into the great wide open

Under them skies of blue

Out in the great wide open

A rebel without a clue

Into the great wide open

Under them skies of blue

Into the great wide open

A rebel without a clue

I didn't know he wrote a song about you. You have my deepest sympathies.

 

 

Yeah, there are times (rare) when I am sorry that I don't respond to Gator

 

 

That was set right up on the Tee.

 

 

(though he might have quoted "Fooled Again" as his favorite)

Despite the growing body of scientific evidence showing that cannabis access is associated with reductions in opioid abuse and mortality, President Trump’s Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis remains mum on the subject. Their silence is unacceptable. It is time for the administration to stop placing political ideology above the health and safety of the American public.

Just last week, data published online in The American Journal of Public Health reported a 6.5 percent decrease in monthly opioid deaths in Colorado following the enactment of retail cannabis sales. “This reduction represents a reversal of the upward trend in opioid-related deaths in Colorado,” authors concluded.

Such a crazy news day!

 

Fifty-one percent of Republicans now support marijuana legalization, a nine-point increase from last year, according to a new Gallup poll released Wednesday. Overall support is also at an all-time high, with 64 percent of Americans now in favor of making marijuana legal. A majority of Democrats have favored legalization since 2009, while a majority of Americans have consistently shown support since 2013.

I was hoping your tired shtick would die with him.

 

Prayer for patience for the kids forced to listen to Dad play his TP greatest hits CD and yell "HE WAS THE GREATEST EVER!!!" for hours until this wears out...

Why is it crazy? If Republicans were really for free markets, smaller government, individual freedom, and get the government out of my bedroom, they'd be for it.

 

Those that follow them and actually believe it are for it.

Well, what we have learned, or re-learned, is that the only thing at all the base case about is their bigotry. Keeping this illegal allows them to punish people so it will stay illegal.
