The joys of alcohol
So it turns out that on New Year's Eve, this guy in my building who's lived here for years came home extremely sozzled, went to bed and woke up 4 hours later choking to death on his own vomit. He managed to call an ambulance and got taken to hospital, where he had to have one of his lungs removed because the puke had burned the crap out of it. Now he's totally messed up and has had to leave his life in America after decades of being here, and go back home to the old country (Greece) to be looked after by his family. Can someone please remind me why pot is illegal again?

Let's hope it spreads! I'm no stoner (although I'll have a wee toke during the holiday season if someone passes me something  ) but I would much prefer to be surrounded by stoners than drunks.

I'm not fully getting how he managed to call for the ambulance. The landlord told me this story yesterday. Perhaps he texted for one....can we text emergency services yet?

Dude ... STOP IT! The reason is OBVIOUS! With shrooms, we SEE way too much and we would have so many ideas for Congress that they would feel inferior, and then have to create laws to prevent anyone from coming in and making suggestions that are far superior to their own! The legalization of maryjane, is a joke by comparison, since it dulls your senses more often than not, and that is perfect for Congress and government ... they can do what they want, and you would never know the difference! The only bad thing about the grass thing is that Reagan didn't invent it, although he was smart enough to say ... let them smoke dope, and I will win all the elections. Nowadays, of course, it's the opposite. And pretty soon another group is going to take it in the shorts for their views on marriage for exactly the same reason!
As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

Sad to hear about this guy Sharke. I know of a 20 something, lets say later 20's who has a terminal form of cancer. The doctor said he got it from smoking weed. I guess he didn't use filters. Mosh- I'm dying to hear what you found out on those shrooms

How about getting 1000's of people addicted to prescription opioids (legal) and then discover they are being abused, jack up the price and restrict availability and then create a heroin epidemic. Way more people killed by prescription meds than by pot. Of course you don't go to jail for killing people with prescriptions, but you can for selling or using pot.
