Thankfully I haven't smoked in close to a month, so I should be able to remember to do so.

I haven't tried it, myself. I'm not really sure where to get it, though I haven't looked much, either.

Though either of those might be better. Probably not recreation, as there will be a lot of serious discussion there as well (hopefully )

And yes I'm over 50.

PS: Can I join? Been smokin' it since I was 19, minus the two times I knew I was pregnant. I've often wondered if maybe I should will my body to science. ALL that pot smoking through the years. AND because of all the artificial sweeteners I've ingested through the years, too. You name it, I've used it. Saccharin, Cyclamates, Aspartame, and now Sucralose. Started when my age was only one digit, in my multiple cups of hot tea from breakfast til bedtime.

Not a big user, but I use it for pain.
Much safer than alcohol, Imho. I live in CO, where it is legal for all over 21!

wrote a poem for our English class. He basically explained why weed wasn't as bad as meth, like we were all taught in DARE and our health classes. It started off like this:

"One day, I injected four whole marijuanas. That was the beginning."

And he proceeded to go on to explain just how weed caused his fall from being a great, normal human being to a crack addict that smoked meth every night and ate only heroin.

The teacher was mildly amused

I just bought two plants and try to grow them inside
until late May. So I may need some good advice about
my new experiment.

The government should not be in the business of enforcing temperance crap borne from a group of zealots who believe getting high is a "sin" or "immoral".

It has helped me with so many things, but I do not advocate for the medicinal legalization only of the plant. I endorse the complete legalization.

I hope to have some good talks in there and I'll be sure to keep the group up to date with my progress and results.

Capitalism will find a way to profitize this. We need to be vigilant to prevent that, because as soon as it becomes profitable, they will block local and home growing, which will be used for further oppression. Thanks for the reminder--this is something we really need to keep on top of. I hope we have more discussions on this in the group.
