Mentos are the BOMB. They sell them in a box at Giant, and it's 70% more mentos than are in the roll, but take up about the same space in your purse. Oh….yes….I think I need one now.
Garfunkel keeping hair on end...
actually i'd sooner have the marijuana……………
except that it's illegal…. :p

i agree with you bags. being passive can be just as bad as being too active. if someone doesn't like law, don't be a baby and sit around whining about it. at least try to make some headway. then if you fail you have a right to sit around and whine. while smoking/etc marijuana is illegal, it doesn't stop the large numbers of people who still smoke or sell it every single day. people have the right to do what they want to their own bodies. however, those scary anti drug commercials that say every time you buy weed you are supporting hairy guerrilla fighters in random countries makes me think about "the bigger picture," if there is such a thing…
Why is pot illegal?
Perhaps its because it is difficult to test if someone is under the influence whilst driving?

We live in a very random world, don't we Paige.

I was complaining because I think it's a stupid law, emphasized by the arrest of a guy in the back seat of a limo just hanging out doing nothing to no one no how…(since it's Garfunkel, I'm thinking it was really a Town Car…).
I also hewed and cried over sentencing Tommy Chong to so much time for selling pot-related paraphenalia. He wasn't changing the law, but how retarded is that law?!?
[I'm not a NORML member or pot activist, but often these arrests strike me as so misguided and inane, with all that goes on in the world…it's just a distraction, or worse, a tool for deflection…]
Free Tommy Chong!

I disagree with you though, drugs and selling them should be illegal, and those who commit these crimes should be in the pokie.
HOWEVER! I'd rather guns be illegal than pot, but evidently it's okay to have a product in your possession who's SOLE PURPOSE is for injuring or killing, but not for okay for some stoner to smoke dis shit.
Mankie, why do you feel pot should be illegal, and alcohol should be legal?
bottom line is that the drug war is unbelievably expensive, completely unsuccessful, and often used to target segments of the population (specifically minorities and those of lower socioeconomic status). Why do we continue to allow our tax dollars into Ashcroft's pocket?

I have smoked pot and it didn't lead me any further down the road…
My wife used to smoke pot every friggin day of her life, and it didn't lead her any further down the road…
Beer and wine are much less harmful than hard liquor…

Mankie, you remind me of my parents. It depends on who is taking these substances. Lots of people start with pot and stay forever with pot and never or accasionally try another substance, but they don't get addicted to it.

You should listen to your parents then.
You just openly said, Quote" Occasionally try another substance" Unquote…and there's the slippery slope.
Anyway, why do you stoners want it legalized? All that will happen then is they'll tax the shit out of it so you'll all end up paying a fortune for for the stuff.

I agree with Paige on the whole drug war…that's just how I see it.

I have tried pot but have never tried anything besides it. It's like with alcohol, you need to know the dangers associated to these substances. However, I agree with telling your kids that if you start with pot, you will soon end with something else, which will be more dangerous. I think it's a good preventive measure.
