Good News! Pot may Stave Off Alzheimers

This is good news indeed for the aging hippies (which would be me) Smoking pot may stave off alzheimers. Not that the medical community will ever be able to use it for that.

I don't think they have ever been able to find something negative about pot. Anyway, I haven't seen anything.

Its the THC that does it. Pot is also good for glaucoma and for easing the pain and side effects of cancer and AIDS.

1. it's the gift that keeps on giving
i'd like to ask our president why, if god created everything on this earth for us, then why would he create something like marijuana or magic mushrooms if he didn't want us to use them?

6. you know
I never see anything negative about it either...I guess I just worry about whose hands it might go through and what might have been done to it along the way...If it were legal, at least we wouldn't have those worries...:hippie:

7. Well, maybe. I wouldn't trust this govt not to put paraquat on it
and then not bother to tell the Democrats about it.
