    Rick, get real! if the drug companies could outlaw O2 and then synthesize oxygen don't you think they would do it??? If any one can just walk outside and suck in O2 where is their profit? the same goes with pot.

    Poco - My apologies. I completely misunderstood your post. You're describing Marinol. I think Sarky referred to it as Marin and I didn't know what that was. Okay, I'm with you guys now.

    Marinol is made by Unimed Pharmaceuticals, which is owned by Solvay Pharmaceuticals based in Marietta, GA. (There you go Frank!). Marinol is basically a synthetic form of the THC (Dronabinol) that's found in medical marijuana. An interesting aside is that Unimed, at one time, had set up an assistance program for those that could not afford the drug. I don't know if that program is still viable or not.

    Rick, No apologies necessary. If there is one lesson that is applicable to all situations that I learned from training horses. It is this- That when the horse doesn't understand, it isn't the fault of the horse, It's not stupid. It's the Fault of the trainer for Not clearly COMMUNICATING what the intentions are. My fault for not clearly communicating.

    I've been working on the math for about an hour now and I'm no further along than when I started. The nearest I can come up with is I'm an Arse and a half but I don't think that's right.

    Have to agree with 2d2k on that one, looks like that there 'new math' works after all!
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    If we are no longer being listened to, heard or represented by our (supposed) representatives is it justifiable to rise up and physically kick their asses out? Lets not forget that they have failed to uphold their sworn duty and oath of office!

    Everybody should exercise their rights, as they see fit. Let's stay away from the political stuff. Thanks.

    I so go for it, Sarky. I'll even help. I'll meet you at the White House. If I get delayed for any reason go ahead and start protesting and I'll be there as soon as I can.

    Good question!

    But, are they the traitors or would the uprisers be considered traitors?

    You see what has happened to us as a country??!! You can thank the Clinton statement "it depends on what the meaning of is, is" . And the press of being illiterate bumpkins.
    You tell me, which will be doing LESS harm to the country and we'll figure it out from there.

    Funny you should ask that, We could probably be better served by picking names out of the phone book!

    I've mostly stayed away from this thread because Sarky would look like a couch potato compared to me. Just sayin'.
