They might not admit it, but ...
I suspect some percentage of this board's members observe the day.
Herbalism!
Anybody heard from ‘65?
That dude is burnt ;)
Taking a different route vs. the true confessions path ;), I present new findings from the UK this week.
91% of teen drug addiction cases result of pot...
Think it's harmless? Now nine in ten teens at drug clinics are being treated for marijuana useBy Stephen Adams and Martin Beckford for The Mail on Sunday

- Skunk - high-potency herbal cannabis - causing more people to seek treatment
- Backs up research that skunk is having detrimental impact on mental health

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have made it possible for scientists to watch the rate at which the PFC matures, and have discovered the male brain doesn't fully develop until age 25. Meanwhile, women experience a maturity rate of 21 years-old.Jun 11, 2013
I know this will not be popular, but our children and students need to know this and the information about "skunk" weed. If you see some tweets especially one of our newest basketball players.
In the late 90s I was at a family gathering here in Louisiana. The subject of pot use came up. One of my cousins made the bold statement that the day would come in this country in the coming decades where more senior citizens would be smoking pot than teenagers. Everyone over the age of 50 in the room laughed at him. From a 2016 story in the Washington Post:
The research, released this week by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, found that only 7.4 percent of Americans aged 12 to 17 years old smoked marijuana regularly in 2014, a 10 percent decline since 2002.
But 8 percent of 35 to 44 year olds used marijuana regularly in 2014, surpassing use among teens for the first time since at least 2002. (Survey data prior to that year aren't directly comparable, as the methodology changed.)
And it's not just middle-aged folks who are indulging more often. Since 2002, regular marijuana use among Americans age 45 to 54 has jumped by nearly 50 percent. Among those ages 55 to 64, it's jumped by a whopping 455 percent (no, that's not a typo)....
To put it another way: If trends continue like this, marijuana use among 50- and even 60-somethings could be higher than use among teens in a few years.

Yet, the same side that think 18 yr old boys shouldn't have a gun think that 15 yr old girls have enough sense to decide for themselves (without parent involvement) if they should kill a baby.
I'm guessing Claude and Ninfa were enjoying 420 too much to acknowledge this post...that "special" part of the French Quarter no doubt had a blue haze last Friday!
I bet 65 has burned a Thai Stick or two in his day :laugh:
I bet ole 65 was burning a joint or two when he was working at Griff's in the 60's. Did they even have a double or triple giant cheeseburger in the 60's? I doubt it. Nothing wrong with hard work. I worked at McDonald's when I was 16 to 18 yrs old in the mid 90's. I look forward to when I can say to my grandkids that this Quarter Pounder or Big Mac meal used to cost $2.99 plus tax when I worked here. I remember some fine Tech and Grambling students introducing me to the so called "devil lettuce" at that time. I with most other people grew out of that stage but for some they can't and they stay perpetually 16 or 17 years old.
There are definitely people that, for whatever reason, were never able to get past that stage and have indeed remained teenagers for life. I know a few of them and it's really a sad, sorry situation in every case. Their lives were totally consumed by the wacky weed. Of course, the same thing happens to some with alcohol.
