2. old interview - Brash & Katelaris on medical cannabis

   I've been going through old stuff, cleaning up my files and I recently converted an old VHS tape to mp4 and then put up an old interview with Katelaris on youTUBE (I far prefer someone else to pay for my bandwidth, in this case ultimately Google ). This was the interview (originally broadcast in 2003) used by the NSW Medical Board to de-register Katelaris recently - he allegedly endangered patients by giving them access to cannabis. above: screenshot I scored the little plant after the interview, it was white rhino - whoa. The packet of 'Tea Bags' was purely a prop made for the camera and not a real product. I also scored some cannabis-laced chocolate similar t…

6. Afternoon grey and smoky, evening yellow and rose

   Afternoon grey and smoky, evening yellow and rose (I think) Maybe the last plant I ever grew came from the husband of a school friend of my mum’s. He brought some stash up for us to share and I kept the one seed. At the time I had access to an overgrown backyard and behind a hillock formed of years of dumped mown lawn I grew single plants over a few seasons. I was lucky always getting female plants with seeds from here and there. And there was always concern over storm clouds and prayers before bedtime. This old guy came from the Riveriena and he’d got it from a next-door neighbour who had been in a lot of pain - apparently. And growing in one of Sydney’s older, down-at…

10. Is it a crime to want to be well? (THC4MS)

    'Is it a crime to want to be well?' For six years, Mark and Lezley Gibson supplied cannabis to sufferers of multiple sclerosis. The police knew what they were doing - but turned a blind eye. Now, however, the 'Canna-Biz Two' have been convicted of dealing. They talk to Patrick Barkham link to original article Tuesday December 19, 2006 The Guardian Behind the purple door on the cobbled streets of Alston, Cumbria, the cooking pot was seldom off the boil.

Luxurious bars of high-cocoa-fat chocolate were wrapped and labelled and place…

11. Partially Collapsed Lung

    Well I have been diagnosed with a partially collapsed lung and need more X-rays in a week or so to make sure that the lung has repaired itself. Basically that means my lung has somehow got a small tear in the tissue and air has leaked out of my lung into my neck area (which I can feel under the veins) and now the lung is still deflated. The doctors (several) have said it should repair itself but I may need to have a drainage tube if it doesn't. I can't smoke at all in this time or I fear I will be doing myself alot of harm so this is my second day with no smoking (I have plenty of prime bud but CANT BLOODY SMOKE IT! ) Has anyone else has this problem? Tell me y…
