Michael Bettencourt The Triumph of WeedSmoking marijuana is not smoking at all… it is inhaling a drug that alters your state of consciousness or for many stoners their lack of consciousness. Arthur Danin Adler BlankStark naked standing on the scale at 6:00 AM.Claudine Jones Life Lesson There will come a time perhaps in your life in which you come to the jarring realization that you have spent a lifetime fighting other people's battles, if not all out wars.
