It's an art, just like painting or sculpting. You're not in a class full of smart people, you're in a class full of creative people. And while drugs can be a source of inspiration, and thus enhance creativity... when it comes to more scientific matters, they make you dumber, not smarter.quote> You know just as much about architecture as you do about pot. Nothing! But you have never worked in an architecture firm have you? Much different place than a classroom, or studio. quote> I actually did work for an architecture firm. Thank you. Its not like the classroom at all because its a job. AND being that its a job you don't always have artistic freedom. BTW above, A building is usually done by several people. The Architect is but a conductor of a symphony. It is not so simple as you made it sound. I just remember how many people on a daily basis my boss had to talk to and send plans to and correspond changes to. I have a link to a video where SWAT raids a guys house kills 2 dogs infront of his kid, and all they find is a small amount of weed. I will not post it because of its graphic nature. HERE is the story though (no video) http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2010/03/swat_team_serves_drug_warrant.php

Here's the thing: i can concentrate when i don't use it, and not using it is free and always available.quote> So I should be on Ritalin instead? Which I was when I was younger. It also caused me to be annorexic. Its not my fault I have A.D.D nor was it Cannabis's fault. I was on Ritalin from 6yrs - 14yr. When I was 14 I weighed 98lbs. A side affect of the prescription amphedimenes is "Loss of Apatitie" @Duke: A lot of farmers use the PLANT of Tobacco to ward off certain pests. The scent makes certain species of herbivoirs sick, and if eaten is toxic to some herbiviours as well.

Originally posted by: josefmayor " At high doses, tobacco can become hallucingenic" quote> But anyway, don't worry about it I deleted the link ( I thought you woulda caught it) in the above quote that took you to a larger list of plants similar to what I had listed.

Originally posted by: Meg Originally posted by: josefmayor Really ST? You're going to remove information on those plants, but not Tobacco information? quote> Yes, really. We are not going to turn this into a "how to get high" thread. quote> Tell me then, how is the Tobacco quote different? NONE of the plants I listed are illegal. And Of them many of them are used EVERYDAY. I also did not mention what part of the plant to use, nor where to get it. The chief ingredient to most beers was removed as well but not the Tobacco quote. I simply don't understand.

Did you know you don't need to smoke weed to get high? Did you also know Cannabis is not the only plant that gets you high like Cannabis is known for? --- edited. Let's skip the "how to get high" lesson --- Really ST? You're going to remove information on those plants, but not Tobacco information? You can go down to your gas station and buy a ton of tobacco and light all that up and hallucinate. Lol, don't you just LOVE censorship. THOSE plants I mentioned you have to be 18 to buy the harvested plant matter that gets you intoxicated. THEY are also chief ingrediants in the alternative cannabis herbs that you can buy (LEGALLY if you're 18) at a store that sells them! Since I'm not allowed to apparently name it I won't go any further.. These are all LEGAL. SO, I don't see what the big deal is, since these plants are literally the same or similar in terms of intoxicant strength. BUT THESE PLANTS DO NOT HAVE 50,000 USES LIKE CANNABIS DOES. To give a factual statistic: If you wanted to overdoes on Cannabis you would need to smoke 1500lbs in under 15 mins. A typical person who smokes moderatly will go through an OUNCE in a month. OH and btw Tobacco is so bad because its grown in radioactive soil: http://www.webspawner.com/users/radioactivetobacco/index.html "In the United States, tobacco is often fertilized with the mineral apatite, which partially starves the plant of nitrogen, to produce a more desired flavor. Apatite, however, contains radium, lead 210, and polonium 210 — which are known radioactive carcinogens." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco Not to mention the fact that TOBACCO is a natural PESTISIDE " At high doses, tobacco can become hallucingenic" (removed link) Thank you hypocracy and propaganda. www.cnbc.com/id/36201668 "Legalization will reduce crime and free up Police" Written by a former Seattle Police Chief. There is one thing, He forgets to metnion that Cannabis is already the #1 cash crop in almost every single state, legal or not.

Well since when you smoke Cannabis, your smoking the female flower, its the scent that the Flowers put off to let predators or cultivators to cut it down so that its seeds (if any) can be dispersed. Its an anual plant so it wants to die after its flower cycle is complete. I've had types of weed that smelled like Lemons, Blue Berries, and a few other delcious scents that weren't bad at all. http://www.drugsense.org/wodclock.htm As of 1:08 $6,290,294,500 Federal $9,655,617,249 State was spent on the War on Drugs SO FAR $40 billion per year and climbing.

If Alochol is legal because of its other uses why isn't HEMP legal which has over 50,000 known uses? Supreme court ruled that Hemp and Medical Cannabis are the same, even though Hemp was bread for fiber content and contains negligable THC. http://www.naihc.org/hemp_information/hemp_facts.html Just remeber in 1916 the US Gov't predicted we wouldn't need to cut down trees to make paper. " In 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down. Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs; Department of Agriculture " Or How about the USDA video "HEMP FOR VICTORY" from the 1940's Who do you think funded the anti-cannabis campaign? William Rudolph Hearst who owned a lot of forests was the largest contributer to the cause. Don't forget the DuPont company who made synthetic alternatives to cannabis such as NYLON and their adhesives. Sheman Williams protested the Marijuana tax of 37 because all of their paints used Hemp " Quality paints and varnishes were made from hemp seed oil until 1937. 58,000 tons of hemp seeds were used in America for paint products in 1935; Sherman Williams Paint Co. testimony before Congress against the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act. " HOW ABOUT THE RACISM? "There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others" "...the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races." "Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men." -Harry J Anslinger all said before congress. The Marihuana Tax was a way to jail people. You needed the stamp to grow, but you also needed the plant to get the stamp. If you didn't have the stamp you were arrested. So if you went to pay the tax, you were arrested. http://www.marijuana-tax-stamps.com/samuel-r-caldwell.html Again, this is the first time "Marijuana' was used in US, Marijuana was an obscure mexican slang word. Potiguaya is the word for Cannabis Leaf... its where "Pot" comes from.

Just like: Pineapple Express, How High, Friday, Next Friday, Friday After Next, Grandma's Boy etc.. Just cos you saw it in a movie does not mean thats how the real experience is. They are just exagerating stereotypes. Its a comedy, not a documentary. quote> well that was an exagerration. My point is, whether its right or wrong, its in the governments best interests to have a nation thats not stoned. Unless your a musician, in which case you are definetely more productive with weed lol. Pineapple Express-Best weed movie ever? quote> I smoke weed every day, before I go to class, and before I take tests. It helps me think clearly, it makes me more motivated to do things. I am VERY productive. I'm unproductive when I don't smoke! I have a tendancy to get bogged down by how much there is to do, when I smoke I take things one step at a time. My GPA has actually gone up since I started smoking weed. Weed affects everyone differently. Alcohol is legal and we have a nation of alcoholics, should we make alochol illegal to stop alcoholism? Wording like that makes it seem like the whole country are alcoholics... 15 million are. Alcohol is legal and not everyone uses it. I personally don't drink alcohol that often. Maybe once a month... And I'm 21. To me alcohol is more damaging and obviously not good for you. I've woken up many a times wishing I never drank in the first place. Never have I ever said "man I smoked way too much" Weed also relieves my extreme miagrains that NO other pain killer seems to qwell. My miagrains which also come with extreme nausea come from a jaw injury I had in high school, which I'm just now starting treatment for. You might want to check out some statistics in Amsterdam and Portugul on what happaned when they legalized/decrimilinzed Or how about the shear fact that the US Governement created a black market for criminals to make huge profits. I read somwhere that 15/100 of the wealthiest people in the world are Drug Cartels in Mexico. Don't you think its time to take the market out of the hands of criminals? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/worldnews/7506688/Mexico-drug-wars-graphic-pictures-illustrating-Mexican-gang-violence.html EDIT: Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Licoln both smoked weed and they obviously were productive: "Some of my finest hours have been spent on my back veranda, smoking hemp and observing as far as my eye can see." - Thomas Jefferson "Two of my favorite things are sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe of sweet hemp, and playing my Hohner harmonica." - Abraham Lincoln

Originally posted by: N_O_Body Originally posted by: Easy Bakes I did nt know Pro Wrestlers were concerened about poaching quote> That's WWF not WWE. I am sure you have heard of the World Wildlife Fund which should not be comfused with the World Wrestling Entertainment. I suppose there may be a relationship if you took the southermost part of one of the masses of steroid enhanced beefcake, stuffed it, and hung it on the wall, you might have a catsasstrophy. quote> WWE wrestlers are drug tested every month. I know this because my dad and brother work for WWE. There was a lawsuit in the late 90's WWFE vs WWF. Even though the WWFE had been around longer World Wild Life Fund won the lawsuit and WWFE had to drop the F. BUT this is pretty crazy, fight fire with fire I guess..

Well where I grew up they had Social Clubs which were only opened to the immigrants that represented them, and they only helped those immigrants. These were private run. Things like El Centro Espanol, The German Club, El Circuolo Cubano, La Union Italiono, Centro Austrino (sp on some) They provided essentialy the same things as the Chickasaws BUT, you had to pay dues. They would provide heatlh care and aid for education. How are these any different than an autonomous Native government that collects its own taxes from its own establishments similar to how these Privately run social clubs that collected money from member dues and their own runned establishments? The only real difference is that the Chickasaw Nation was unable to provide the same help cos these orginizations all existed back in the 1880-1950's They couldn't then... Hell it was illegal to serve my dad a beer in a bar until the 70's! Its their right to decide what they do with the money that they collected for their own orginization. Besides that the nation is estimated at 20,000. Its very easy and not that expensive to provide for such a small population.

I'm able to afford going to school because of my Native American tribe the Chickasaws. (I'm also registered CDIB) My great grandmother was forced from Mississippi to Oklahoma to live in poverty on a reservation. My father and uncle grew up poor in Oklahoma and were fortunate enough to be superior athletes. Thats the only reason I'm able to post here today. Both were given full scholarships to Oklahoma State University. I've been so injured in my high school athletics I'm unable to do the same so my only ability to afford college is through the grants and scholarships offered. Because my Nation was granted autonomy they are now able to provide Health care, Education, and help to those who need it, and I will tell you there are a lot of them that need it.

Love it spa, can't wait to become more active again, I've been downloading all your releases as they come out! Keep it up man
