don't know where else to post this so please share if so inclined.

September 10, 2013 will go down in reform history as the day the Senate figured out it’s not if we legalize marijuana but how we legalize marijuana.

Senator Pat Leahy (D-VT), Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, called a hearing on the Justice Department’s reaction (or lack of reaction) to the legalization measures passed in Washington and Colorado. The hearing was attended by Senators Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT). The senators questioned Deputy Attorney General James Cole, Seattle Sheriff John Urquhart, Jack Finlaw (Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper’s Chief Counsel) and Project SAM Director Kevin Sabet. Here are some of the choice quotes from the day’s proceedings:http://www.hightimes.com/read/not-if-we-legalize-marijuana-how

Morning folks - big day with the neurologist today. Hopefully he can help a bit with my legs. Then it's off to the vet - 99% sure my terrier Ben has kennel cough.

How the fuck he got it? No clue - I'm assuming is that hooker Pomeranian up the block. I knew that bitch was dirty.
Kennel Cough is highly contagious and easily transmitted from one animal to another. You mention you have a terrier, if it's a Yorkie, they get something called a Collapsing Trachea which also makes them cough :(

Thanks VV - vet said it looks more like a simple upper respiratory infection then Kennel cough. We start clindamyacin and cough suppressant today. She said other than that he looks great!


And as far as my doctor's appointment, typical this and that.....


Oh, and I am being sent to Gainesville for brain surgery.

Well Thank god they're going for the simple solution heh . No you can't use MMJ But .......................!

All joking aside sounds like a tough move to be comfortable with mvapes . Are they doing it for some form of treatment or for a better prognosis ?




Glad to hear the puppy will be OK .

I saw the Dead when they were in Chicago in the early/mid 90s. Well... didn't actually see them, but saw a bunch of their hippy fans and protesters with "Free the Dolphins" signs bobbing up and down while we were trying to watch a marine show at the Sheddaquarium. The concert took place that night. :peace:

There has been a lot recently about marineland near here with treating their animals badly. I don't know about how they actually treat them at the shedd, but the shedd is an amazing aquarium. My favourite one I've been too. Even better than Sydney (sorry dorkus). I was actually just next to the shedd seeing phish in July on northerly island. Beautiful view of the city during a concert. But phish fans consist of generally more apathetic fans than dead heads and are less likely to be seen protesting from my experience. For some that just means less annoyance during a dolphin show. :)

You can't treat most animals in captivity correctly as they need land and space. Look how much a whale or dolphin swims a day but they are in a small tank or cage if you think about it. It is horrible.

I was actually more intrigued at seeing the deadheads than the dolphins.

I agree, especially animals that need to roam.

This one really made me laugh. And I think deadheads are more interesting than dolphins. But dolphins are much cuter. Present company excluded. :)

Brain surgery. :suspicious:

Are they installing one for you, mvapes? Or is this a warranty replacement?

I'm reminded of the Star Trek episode where Spock's brain went missing, and then Doc McCoy had to reinstall it. "It's child's play..."

That turned out okay, after all. Yours will, too. :tup:
