Lots of stories like that. Buddy Hackett was starting his comic career in the late 40's and hung out with the band after work every night and got stoned. He thought he was doing great, until he took a break from the dope and realized his career was going nowhere. He quit and never looked back. Never trust what a stoner tells you, they do not see reality clearly. Again, why do they think it's called 'dope'. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

They dragged their feet setting up the regulations They arbitrarily decided that Marijuana will still remain illegal despite the voters approval Yup, Marijuana remains illegal because republicans refuse to accept the voters decision on medical marijuana What is legal is oils and concentrates. I can live with that. Now that the market has matured a bit with dispensaries opening up around town Decided to go for it In the process of getting my card. Step 1, see a special Marijuana DR. 200.00 I saw the Doc, got approved due to sleeping problems my primary DR has documented Next step have primary DR send part of my medical history to the Marijuana DR That's done Marijuana DR enters my info into the Florida Marijuana Patient database That's done Got my acceptance email from Florida Marijuana patient database with a password Will continue the process tonight.

The last polls I saw on the issue had the majority of people supporting the legalization proposal. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

If Michigan does not legalize They will be missing out on huge tax dollars that Canada will earn instead. Its pretty obvious the times have changed and the republicans are left behind The whole country supports gay marriage and legal pot. Its the republicans that are fighting democracy in these areas. sad Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

The law says anyone in Canada over the age of 18 is allowed to possess marijuana, provided it's less than 30 grams. Canadians can also grow up to four marijuana plants in their home and buy from a provincially regulated retailer. The government of Canada will oversee production and manufacturing of the drug. Provincial and municipal governments have control over wholesaling, and will also be able to set laws on public consumption. McLellan said the government's early estimates of use in the country of 36 million ranges from 650,000 to 900,000 tons on an annual basis. A report by Deloitte estimates the Canadian marijuana market will pass $7 billion by 2019. $7 billion / 10 million buyers = $700 apiece per year Could that be right? |

According to the CDCP, the average cost for a pack of cigarettes is $6.28, so for a pack a day smoker that is $188/month, $2292 per year Starbucks I guess starts at $1.85 "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts."

Anything to make the Libs even dopier, I'm all for it. That's who 90% of the customers are, gotta escape from that Lib bubble they trapped themselves in.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Each Province gets to set the age and most have set it at 19 but Alberta is 18 and Quebec looks like they are going to make it 21. As someone else has pointed out $700 is only $2 a day. One joint is selling for $4.50 in BC. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

Last time I was in Vegas, I stocked up on concentrates to bring home For the business, was given free joints as a gift due to my large purchase of concentrates I cant take a joint on a plane due to smell I would walk around till I found a street person and shared it with him They were very appreciative, especially when I only took a couple of hits 1st then told street person they could have the rest. :-) Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
