As far as weed, I don't mind if people smoke. I don't love the smell and don't want it around all the time. I smoked when I was a teenager but I never liked it. I just feel paranoid on it. When it became legal in MA I tried it again (at like age 49) and hated it. Couldn't wait for the hi to go away. But damn I like my cocktails.
The only thing I don't like about kids and weed these days is they treat it as a lifestyle, not just an occasional party. They smoke morning, noon, and night. It's worse than my caffeine addiction in college. But other than that as long as it's not in my face I don't really care. I don't feel it's a gateway drug. Actually I only think of it as a gateway drug if it was illegal. That's what leads people down the path of dealing with drug dealers that want them hooked on worse drugs. If they can buy it at a local dispensary they aren't being sold coke at the same time. |

Sacrilege!
Ever try Slivovitz? Croatian plum brandy. Also Slovenian and Serbian. Some of the liquor stores around here sell it. Maraska is the best, also the most expensive. (like anything else, you get what you pay for). Sort of an acquired taste. But for as long as I can remember it has been a part of every religious celebration, wedding and funeral since I've been old enough to partake (12, I think).
