Not Plumber-That must have been one fun grocery store stop.
I am not sure if it was one of your first times, but eating it is very different from smoking it. For one thing it does take a longer period of time to hit you. Also, a completely different type of high. Depending on what the amount was in the brownie, along with whether it was the pot of the last 20 years or not, plays a big role in the intensity. The pot of today has been so genetically perfected that the THC content of pot 30 years ago was less than 10%. These days it is in the 20-30% range ! I am a child of the 60's, the pot back then came in varying strengths. You had to almost smoke an entire joint yourself sometimes to get really wasted (sorry, just had to say it). Today, you take about three hits off a joint and you are baked (sorry again). Also, there is no OD'ing on pot. If you look at the CDC deaths from all substances, you will find pot at the end of the list, with a big Zero ! No one has ever died from a direct cause of ingesting pot. What their own personalities and behaviors exist are what determines what happens to them, good or bad. I have not smoked pot for at least 10 years. That still was a once or twice a year type thing. When you are a grandpa, you don't want to be smoking pot. I would much rather have a generation of pot smokers , than alcohol drinkers. Just look at all the alcohol related deaths from drunk driving alone, or all the diseases caused from excessive drinking, or cigarette smoking diseases ? Neither of those completely legal "drugs" have any medical benefit. In fact they absolute cause serious health issues including fatality. Yet, in a large city you can find a liquor store or bar just about on every corner !! With just the independent research that is done, it has found many significant medical benefits for pot. Can you imagine what the government has discovered ? Yet, because our government is owned and operated by big business and the rich, why do you think pot is still for the most part illegal, at least federally. Can you imagine the money wasted on the war on pot !!!! Instead of developing it for helping people. Alcohol and tobacco companies would have a serious decrease in their bottom lines ! Sorry guys, got way off track, this is a plumbing forum. Just sick and tired of the BS that happens in this country. How big business and the rich have such preferential lives. In my state, I have to compete with utility companies that installs boilers, (like hacks) the cost is always twice as much as any other private contractor, and they give the people a 10 year interest free period to pay for it, on their monthly bill !! PHCC went to court for what had to be decade, considering in my state a company that engages in a trade that requires a license, a person with that active license has to own 10% of that entity ! They went to court stating that it does not require a licensed plumber to install the boiler if the domestic water has not been cut on the house side of the water shut off !!! Well it still requires a back flow prevention device. As far as I know "that" requires a licensed plumber. Bet you can't guess who won ?
