Pfft..

GoJetsGo, a quarter a day was nothing for me. And that IS on average. Yes, others came by with their own too.

I mean PERSONAL average.

And it damn near ruined me. Glad I grew up.

It ain't the cost. Hell, on top of the pot load, I had a coke bill that at times would choke Fotze.

I did that. I lived that. For years.

Pot lead to hash, and oil, and lead to mushrooms (no, pot isn't a gateway drug...)

Then some LSD, but mainly coke.

Guess what, yes it happens, and unless you do one of two things you are doomed.
1) Dabble in pot recreationally and HOPE that your other life experiences don't lead to more regular use
2) Avoid it completely.

Option two is my recommendation.

I am 42 years old now. If I could go back to that moment in time in my early teens when I said "OK" to a toke, I would do it in a heart beat.

Nothing good of long lasting value ever came out of THAT desision. Only bad. I wasted the scholarship I earned for my intelect, And I failed to go after the one I could have done for my athletics.

Until I realized pot was useless (and hash, oil, mushrooms, code, etc) I failed in life; albeit in my expectations.

Even after learning from that, when push came to shove and over a 6 year span both my parents died, the time I spent with them took me out of many of the benefits that the growth that Calgary experienced.

I admit, I made a HUGE mistake in life.

I started smoking pot.

I regret that decision with every fibre in my body now.
