The Pot Blog

Okay, this was kinda inspired by Tr!sh's blog on drug testing welfare recipients.... but I wanted to get a conversation going about pot...reefer...grass....kind bud...whatever you call it.

Do you think it should be legal? If so, why? If not, why not? What restrictions should be imposed on it?

Personally, I believe that anything you take into your body or do with your body is your own business and not the government's. I think that pot should be listed under the same classifications and restrictions as cigarettes or alcohol... both of which are a much higher health risk than marijuana is.

Out with the old, in with the new

I'm a little late on this entry, as it is the middle of January 2013. I had meant to drop a few lines at the end of 2012 but like many other important things I've vowed to tackle in life, the thoughts found themselves in a holding pattern up in the grey matter. But hey! Now is as good a time as any, right? The past year has been an amazing experience, all around. I thought 2011 was a banger of a year, but 2012 actually topped that and then some. We were faced with challenges and adversity, but we always overcame them and moved forward. That's what life is about. I started of 2012 still living in my cozy Grandview Heights town home and continuing the daily grind with Chase Home Finance. Rochelle flew out to spend the New Year with me, and I took her out on the town. We were able to see the Columbus Zoo Lights on New Year's Eve, did some major shopping at Easton Town Center. At the end of her visit, I surprised her by flying back out to Virginia for a few more days....

Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award

I'm a frequent reader of right wing propaganda. I'll admit that. I think there are quite a few decent, straight forward Republicans out there who run excellent commentary on their blogs. They are typically warm and open to respectful debate. Mike M. 's blog is a good example. However, I am convinced that there are some real nut jobs out in the blogosphere, who's primary goal is to berate and destroy any opposition to their polar ideology. So, with all due respect, I've opted to create a weekly award to highlight randomly selected right wing nutjobs' hate filled contribution to our online community as well as the political landscape. This section will appropriately be labeled "The Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award", in honor of everyone's favorite Yale cheerleader! Without any further ado, this week's Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award is given to Ottman, over at The Creative Conservative . Otto is a fearless general of mis-informa...

A friend of mine over on Myspace wrote a blog over the weekend that really got me thinking. She asked, "How do you perceive home?" To elaborate, do you consider the place you live now, where you work, shop, play, and exist as home? Or is it where you were born and raised? Is it with your parents or maybe an ex-lover? Or are you a Jack Kerouac, considering the next town over the hill your home... for now. What is 'home' to you? Home is where the heart is. For the longest time during my mid to late 20's, I always thought of San Luis Obispo, CA as my home. I called it my 'happy place'. I had went to college there along with several of my best friends from high school, and those years molded and shaped my thoughts and beliefs like no other time of my life. When I moved on, I felt tied to SLO; not unlike a surfer is tied to the ocean no matter where he lives. Home to me was walking down Higuera St. during Farmer's Market , or spending the afternoon brows...
