Coffee and TV

More evidence that Republicans hate science. They somehow believe that marijuana and heroin are the same thing.

Republican. Which makes the whole idea of him being a fall guy for the Obama Administration that much more hilarious.

Rick still living in the echo chamber I see.

That's silly. The cartels might focus more on harder drugs, or turn to some other illicit activity, but if people can grow their own bud, they'll grow it as weak or as strong as they desire.

Wrong again. I occasionally have too much to drink, but always sober up before I ever drive home. And I would toke up, but also would avoid the car afterwards.

If legalization increases use, then therefore we can conclude that those people were respectful/wise enough of the laws to avoid it before. Therefore, you can also conclude that those same people would be respectful/wise enough of the law to also avoid use while operating a motor vehicle.

I think you missed my point...

Most. Probably not Meth or Heroin. Cocaine....ehhh.... I kinda feel the same way about drugs that I do guns: if you put too many restrictions on them, then the only people who will have them are criminals. EDIT: A study came out a few years ago from British scientists who studied the physical, social, and economic effects of every drug. Stuff like marijuana and pure X came in lower on the scale than alcohol and tobacco.

Packs of cigs in Manhattan have gotten so overtaxed that people bootleg from Jersey or Connecticut and sell looseys on 5th Avenue for a buck a piece.

Most drugs should be legalized, taxed, and regulated.

I did too. Everyone's just sooo stupid. I'm so much smarter than all of these sheep that actually believe in voting. Baaaa Baaaaa, everybody look at me, I'm sooo much smarter than you guys.

And I think it might have something to do with the vegetation in the Northeast. The same winds that might snap some branches in a North Texas thunderstorm were snapping trees in half like toothpicks, or just pulling them out of the ground altogether. I guess the oaks and pines just can't bend like the palms or live oaks in more hurricane active areas.

If you want to stop the 2 party system you can always vote for Jack Grimes. That's what I did. http://joanne21921.tripod.com/

It's funny when people talk about how trickle down was this magical thing that created all these jobs in the 80's. Then you show them how many more jobs were created in the 70's...

And almost all the 9/11 hijackers did too. Not to mention the guy's father is a successful NYC businessman. I don't see how this is news.

Historically any democracy has success when they elect people with common sense and pragmatism, but alas those don't exist in the Republican Party anymore, only demagogues. But in Texas, Sadler has no chance. Bill White was about the most centrist, proven Democrat in the state, and he got flogged by governor goodhair.

Pretty much not a damn thing except watching college football and playing PS3. After last weekend I'm beat.

I don't see how this happens. The wind could knock out power, tear up the stadium, and rainfall could be 8-12 inches in Baton Rouge. Don't they have grass, too? If it does get played the rain could serve as an equalizer, and we'll be better prepared. I don't smell upset but this storm could help us out.

If only Wisconsin didn't have to battle those unions. Then they'd be able to double class sizes, cut teaching jobs, and close down schools like we did in Texas. Yeah, big win alright. Big win for corporate bigwigs.

Share the wealth, bro. Share the wealth.

Just because a guy didn't hit a lot of home runs doesn't mean he didn't juice. Steroids have a lot to do with overall endurance and conditioning. They have to do with bouncing back from minor injuries more quickly, and overall muscle increase. They don't necessarily make fly ball outs into home runs. With most hitters in that era I'd shave about 100 points off their slugging percentage, and then decide if they're worthy or not. Pudge? Dunno. Bagwell? Nope. Bonds? Nope. Clemens? Not a chance. Griffey? Absolutely.

No doubt. Go Toffees. Although in all honesty, I just don't get into any European team that much. Sorry, but unless I can attend matches regularly, its just reality TV to me. I have no connection or any deep reason to cheer for or against any club. Its amazing to me how much some of my friends are so diehard for Chelsea or Arsenal or whoever, having never attended a match.

Most likely a juicer, so I'm not quite sure where I'd rank him.
