Why don’t we speak to the people in these countries directly? A month of full page ads in papers and news stations all over the Middle East should do. “Teaching your children to hate, and telling them God says it’s ok, is just another form of mental disease.” Makes you wonder if you could sue [...]

I added a page to the right for the people at the FDA to read. Just some of the original text for the 400 page report on Marijuana in 1970. Maybe they have a drug for memory loss up there on FDA hill.

Reading his blog today here, and it was a good one. I had to reply; Eric, I just had to take a second in reply to your recent explanations to “sitting it out” on areas you felt you had nothing constructive to input. Cheers to you! Some cans just say “Worms” on the side, don’t [...]

Obesity Represents “Business Opportunity”

glen @ July 25, 2006 # No Comment Yet

Instead of an epidemic, obesity is becoming a way to build bigger ambulances, construct hospitals, and build new super-duper X-ray machines to see through Aunt Thelma’s SFA(super fat ass). On another note, I noticed something funny while picking something up from the [...]
