LOL!!! Fox News story: Legalized Pot: Smoke it or Eat it?

The times, they are a changin' when Fox News runs with a syndicated story about the pros and cons of smoking vs. eating.

The story is still full of wrongheaded ideas, etc.

BUT...how many in their GWG (grumpy white guy) audience were ready for that one, I wonder.

a baby since starting this (thanks to the cannabis) but also never get nighttime leg cramps anymore (thanks to the Mg in chocolate and maybe also to the cannabis) which is perhaps the most awesome part.

I really don't like pot, so that would not have been a solution for me. But I found that taking 2 capsules of Vitamin E cured the problem.

some vets are able to decrease their dosages of opiate pain medication by substituting cannabis - potential for addition is small and no risk of an o.d. or other problems associated with opiate painkillers.

And Rush needs to mellow out, big time.

Well, there's also hash under glass and a beer stein with a lid is best for that.
