I notice that you say "was once a pot smoker", meaning that they no longer do it. How many of your acquaintances would risk throwing away their careers in "the real world" just so that they could keep hitting the bong? Probably not too many of them.... And the ones who would take that risk, how would you describe them?
A friend of mine once called college a "four year vacation", and I suppose that that is the case for most kids. But college athletes are in a different class - unlike the rest of us, their careers start the moment that they step foot on campus, not the day that they leave it. For them, college is "the real world", and they have to live and act accordingly. |

What does this do for the case against pot?
20 Percent of Scientists Admit Using Brain-Enhancing Drugs -- Do You? | Wired Science from Wired.com
For the sake of argument can we all agree that pot is moral and good? It improves thinking, makes you drive slower on the freeway, give more generously to charity, and produces those erections that last four hours or longer?
IF the team rule was don't drink milk and these guys showed up with a milk mustache they broke the rule. It makes no difference if we agree with the rule.
Now circle IF, underline it and highlight it and let's all go back to ganging up on HTM in the RR thread. |

Moderator ruling please...
When someone thanks dick for a marker on his screen, should we pretend we didn't see the post?
