Hey Poter,

I employed that tactic in my campaign for governor back in 2006. I had plans to write a book called "Every naughty girl thing I ever did" and release it to the media and public before the election....I just didn't have time.

It's a brilliant tactic and one that I often employ. Truth is the last thing the media expects to hear from politicians and nothing with leave them with their mouths hanging open quite like that.

Marc's arrogance was earned and I love to hear him speak in his machine-gun style. Those are two of the best things about him in my opinion. He's unrepentant and loud. And indefatigable.

Unfortunately, not very well. Alzheimer's has taken its toll on the physical level after a few years with the illness. She is much more frail than when we saw her last year. After visiting and seeing the state she is in, Marc is more motivated to speak out about cannabis curing Alzheimer's, because it could have saved his mom if she had only known it would help, and if she hadn't been dissuaded by the illegality of it...

I watched the videos and understand and accept everything he says. I'll have to watch again and understand better and embrace what I accept as who we are and how we are and how things are.

I've watched the video by Jill Bolte Taylor three times, and as above so below, which is to say here and now.

The right brain processes the present. The left brain processes the past and the future. Duality is pervasive.

Does Cannabis act upon each hemisphere of the brain equally, or does it favor right brain activity? If yes, does this imply left brain atrophy? Does this lead to increased or consistent enough Cannabis ingestion to create new neural paths in the left brain to design a future based on the properties of Cannabis acting upon us?

It's speculated and with good reason that during an ancient time when climate change caused the forest to recede and savannas to expand, our ancestors found themselves outside the safety of the forest canopy. Small and walking, more or less, on the ground they found psilocybin mushrooms (which at low doses increase edge acuity and night vision) and enhanced our survival.

Cannabis has certainly been around since before insects. That's a lot of time to affect evolution by promoting life that consumes it, but which might also forget where it got it for the next nibble, so off the creatures go.

Fast forward. The power elite of today lose a measure of their power every time someone new starts loving pot. The goal is to overgrow the government. The more we are who smoke pot the softer their fall. The idea is to imbue the future with the love we can only share now. The only time is now. We exist only in the present. Space is recursive, a mobius vortex, which might explain a few things also.

Love is a verb. Love is what we do to show life love.

Cannabinoid consciousness will be our flowering.

peace and pot

Hi Loretta,

You have such a way with words. If you ever get that time, I think a lot of us would love to get comfortable with that book and have an absolute hoot.

And yes, Marc has tremendous insight and oratorical skills. The message is out there. Activists lead the way. Participants support the cause. No matter what, we're all in this together.

The sacrament of Nature; be LIGHT,
Whore blamed as be religion; Lore re-named as be LOVE,
Sow depending on your religious/political POV,
On high ABOVE matter, or low BELOW spirit,
What the spirit be, that is, that be matters?

What matters is Change.

CHANGE be the ONE.

Change be Nature's own sacrament; change be LIFE.

The sacrament of the religious; be liefs, leaves ...for the Healing of the Nations.
The defilement of the political; be lies, lies ...for the Stealing of the Nations.

STEALING = BLIPS of LIES!
HEALING = FLIPS of HIGHS!

Don't s(Peak) too loud, the iconoclasm be THE NULL AGE of Prohibition;
For the BLIPS of DEAth be the Dogmas of FEAR; DEAth be LIES and MURDER.

The BLIPS of DEAth; be Devil, "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning".
