Here is a servey that took about five minuets of my time and I would reefer, opps, refer you to, as well. I suppose at some point they will release the details and come for me... ah, no. this has strict privacy guards from the looks of it. Peace, love and Lizards das Bush!

8/19/09 Des Moines Iowa and the Iowa Board of Pharmacy has been forced by Carl Olson to do their written duty of a yearly examination of scheduled cannabis, even if they have never done one I am aware of before in lots of years. It really pisses me off that these sanctimonious pot nazis can shirk their duty to the public and call themselves consciencious. They have been operating off of ignorence and arrogance for a lo-ong time and now that our champion has stuck the brown boot of science and duty in the butt cracky of the establishment they are getting a room of people really telling them to let up off the medical pot for our benefit. We started out with a couple of doctors and then we got speaker number three... das Bush! What ya gots to do with these jerks is nail them right off with your bona fides and that is where I took em... I am born in Iowa, my old lady is, all our kids are, all the grandparents on both sides are born in Iowa and I made mention that my paternal grandparents were listed in the first federal census of the state of Iowa in 1920. No one in the room can beat that. Very probably not one of the Board members has an equal to it, either. Let's get our chess pieces out on the board where they get some scope right off. Yeah, I play that, too. Then I enjoyed mashen em with my list of medications. More bona fides because I was able to hook up to the first speaker, the doctor who mentioned "Fentanyl fizzies". Yeah, right. They taste real salty and don't kick in for twenty minutes just like the doctor said per my "anecdotal experience". "And just how good is that? I asked them, "when your rolling on the bathroom floor puking." I've done it, folks. I still do every now and then. Why? because, as my next part of my ten minutes detailed, I have six fuzed vertebrae in my thorasic spine, four blown discs in my cervical spine and two jellied spots in my brain evidenced by multiple CAT scans from idiots who smash into me with trucks, cars and the kitchen sink when I closed my eyes that last time. I hooked up to the doctor some more when I bashed the FDA approved pain killers as slow to come on leaving me in awful pain when I get what is laughingly called "breakthough pain". Oh, merciful God, that shit hurts and it isn't nearly rare enough for my happiness. You know what works, pharmacy board folks? YOU know, my constant readers. Smoked Cannabis of two to five good tokes will knock out 50% of the nausia right there in front of the stool so I can stop gagging in joy from idiots blundering into my life with their bad driving. how much pot were They smoking to cause trouble? Folks, pot comes on in less than five seconds for my relief. This is not a exageration at all. I don't need to stretch anything. The truth is my weapon and it works. Oh, I think I have improved a bit since last October when the last fool was following me on an interstate and he was tootleing at 80+ while text messaging. He failed to see my recently repaired car have a sudden total loss of power because he was texting and he traveled a good quarter of a mile before crashing into me before I could get onto the shoulder of the road. He flipped me end for end three times, according to highway state patrol and broke my ass, folks. I have weird dreams of seeing my hood of my car and the sky in front of it. strap that one on. ok, don't. it sucks. and it isn't going to heal clear up. not ever clear up. this is now me. and I Know, I KNOW that there are peeps way worse off than my griping act. they got up there and trembled at being identified by cops, too. You wonder why I try so hard to tell you how to grow pot for free? I am a nice guy, that's why. I care about sick people because we Need to stop the pain and the shame and the puking and we do not want to hear some Boolshit about how these pharmacy board creeps are jailin on us because they are ignorent. I made very sure they understood that NO FDA approved drug is near as effective at stopping the pukes as my reefer I grow at home is. And it's not. Pot is the best anti-puke medication in the world at any price. I hit em with the statistic that 100 people a year die from potatoe overdose. Yeh, potatoes contain oxalic acid and it is poison and kills a small percentage of us for eating potatoes. Then I landed it about the bounty out on pot of $20,000 for even ONE cannabis related death ever... and it is not claimed because pot has no lethal dose in the real world. I was in full tilt bitch mode and told them, as I have told senator greasly/grassley, "If I want to get High, all I have to do is reach over to the bedside table and get the bottle of morphine and take whatever I want. Getting high is not what this is about." Yep, I like to play logic-plumber. I plug up holes till the shit runs right. I Wanted to make a joke that I have tried to overdose on pot and it can't be done, but I kept it at the non-idiot level for these pot nazis because I want this to go down right as I can, ok? And then I wound up, " I am an Iowan, Not an anecdote!" in reference to the all time pot nazi chazley grassley, my jerkass state senator. Can you imagine how that felt when I walked off the stage and they were screaming??? I got this wonderful standing ovation and I am still shook the next day! I was on at least two television spots by noon and a friend told me I was aired at more length at one am on the WHO radio station. Kick Ass! But, that wasn't the best part. the best was when Carl Olson told me, "You were Awesome!" Oh, God in Heaven! If only my pain can help others not have to hurt so much maybe I don't have to feel so crazy with wondering where it all goes to. If only we can legalize our weed and not have to live in fear because we don't want to puke or feel these ugly tremors or headaches from hell or the anxiety so many suffer from. For the record: for us to have these incredible THC receptors in our brains means we have been eating cannabis for thousands of centuries in order to have evolved these areas. They are repositories of anti cancer and anti aging information yet to be discovered! Pot is not new. The pot nazis are! and they are wrong and an abberation that will be thrown down in the due course of unstoppable history. Ah, but first, the suffering to put down the clowns who love human control, our favo lie. Well, that and the lie that we are only one personality inside our selves. We aren't. Be honest. You aren't, either. We don't manufactor THC or vitamin C or lots of other necessary organic molecules. That's why we need to eat them. I suppose I will now have to force a few of these brownies just to prove that evolution works. My burdens are great, but you are worth it, I suppose God Bless Your Gardens

It's 8:08 am and your humble narrator is wound up like a clock spring. Today I may finally meet our Iowa champion Carl Olson for the first time, even if it's only hearing him speak from a podium. I can dig it!!! I am very Christian and a serious pothead from wa-ay back when it comes to medical usage, especially. How serious? Well, like Spider, we are each going into our personal churchs as a servant. That's right, I am very seriously considering a effort to pass thorugh the eye of the needle by unloading material, worldly possessions and serving God and Man as a Deacon in my Roman Catholic Church, that being what God has lead me to become part of. My friends, we live in an incredible time of change and growth and I am not one to stand still. But, we sure have some who Do want us to stand still. Take this Kirlikousky (ok, You spell it from memory lol) moron of a drug czar we have, please. He is from Seattle and they are very pro medical pot and he is sold out to the core from the looks of things. He is a human dinosaur. Here: check it out if you'd lke http://eclipptv.com/viewVideo.php?video_id=6898 Now, if I haven't messed up the date, we are about to have us a real public education meeting on medical cannabis at the Iowa State Historical Bldg starting at 10 am. I AM SOO GOING TO BE THERE! God Bless Your Gardens! Bush

hmm, if you consider just how much morpheney weenie I, your humble narrator, personally eats on a daily basis I am thinking there may be a money saving for us somewheres. Ahh, no. Active Ingredient In Cannabis Eliminates Morphine Dependence In Rats ScienceDaily (July 15, 2009) — Injections of THC, the active principle of cannabis, eliminate dependence on opiates (morphine, heroin) in rats deprived of their mothers at birth. The findings could lead to therapeutic alternatives to existing substitution treatments. In order to study psychiatric disorders, neurobiologists use animal models, especially maternal deprivation models. Depriving rats of their mothers for several hours a day after their birth leads to a lack of care and to early stress. The lack of care, which takes place during a period of intense neuronal development, is liable to cause lasting brain dysfunction. The study was carried out by Valérie Daugé and her team at the Laboratory for Physiopathology of Diseases of the Central Nervous System (UPMC / CNRS / INSERM). Valérie Daugé's team at the Laboratory for Physiopathology of Diseases of the Central Nervous System (UPMC / CNRS / Inserm) analyzed the effects of maternal deprivation combined with injections of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the main active principle in cannabis, on behavior with regard to opiates. Previously, Daugé and her colleagues had shown that rats deprived of their mothers at birth become hypersensitive to the rewarding effect of morphine and heroin (substances belonging to the opiate family), and rapidly become dependent. In addition, there is a correlation between such behavioral disturbances linked to dependence, and hypoactivity of the enkephalinergic system, the endogenous opioid system. To these rats, placed under stress from birth, the researchers intermittently administered increasingly high doses of THC (5 or 10 mg/kg) during the period corresponding to their adolescence (between 35 and 48 days after birth). By measuring their consumption of morphine in adulthood, they observed that, unlike results previously obtained, the rats no longer developed typical morphine-dependent behavior. Moreover, biochemical and molecular biological data corroborate these findings. In the striatum, a region of the brain involved in drug dependence, the production of endogenous enkephalins was restored under THC, whereas it diminished in rats stressed from birth which had not received THC. Such animal models are validated for understanding the neurobiological and behavioral effects of postnatal conditions in humans. In this context, the findings point to the development of new treatments that could relieve withdrawal effects and suppress drug dependence. The enkephalinergic system produces endogenous enkephalins, which are neurotransmitters that bind to the same receptors as opiates and inhibit pain messages to the brain. I still have a broken back, three broken ribs (healed by now) and six fused vertebrae and the list goes on... so I will probo continue to be forced to take my methadone and smoke pot to control the nausea and other horrid crap ill people like myself endure. I intend to live even tho there are days when I think it's a questionable idea because of all the idiots required to deal with just to stay alive. At least I have brains and courage enough to grow and smoke my pot which helps me in so many ways. You see, pot enhances many downers and so I can take less of these awful killers and still get good effect. And, like many thousands of other hurt and ill peeps of the world, that's a good thing. The bad thing, of course, is that I live in a pot nazi controlled area headed up by pot-nazi Obergruppenfuher Chaz-ley Grassley, himself. A true hick and genuine asshole senator for my beloved Iowa. The good thing for him is: he has me, your determined if humble narrator (heh). The bad thing for him is: I refuse to die first and he is a really old bastard. I intend to smoke pot and piss on his grave soon after so he can get his richly deserved THC sendoff. God Bless You Everyday, Carl Olson, you make me proud.

Well, maybe if you're like our little group of would-be horticultural experts perhaps lol We Try to get a lethal dose to the blues, pain and general boredom as well as enjoy great stero jazz and rock... without electricity. Aand, I have noticed that I am occasionally easier to get along with as well.... on sub-lethal doses thus far. "Darn plant kingdom!", to quote Homer Simpson. Here's some info of interest to all you pro and anti folks... enjoy: What is the lethal dose of marijuana? How 'bout some facts and scientific figures for the peeps? According to which US Government authority you want to believe, the lethal dose of marijuana is either about one-third your body weight, or about 1,500 pounds, consumed all at once. did they just say I weigh 1,500 pounds??? lol -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In summary, enormous doses of Delta 9 THC, All THC and concentrated marihuana extract ingested by mouth were unable to produce death or organ pathology in large mammals but did produce fatalities in smaller rodents due to profound central nervous system depression. The non-fatal consumption of 3000 mg/kg A THC by the dog and monkey would be comparable to a 154-pound human eating approximately 46 pounds (21 kilograms) of 1%-marihuana or 10 pounds of 5% hashish at one time. In addition, 92 mg/kg THC intravenously produced no fatalities in monkeys. These doses would be comparable to a 154-pound human smoking at one time almost three pounds (1.28 kg) of 1%-marihuana or 250,000 times the usual smoked dose and over a million times the minimal effective dose assuming 50% destruction of the THC by smoking. Thus, evidence from animal studies and human case reports appears to indicate that the ratio of lethal dose to effective dose is quite large. This ratio is much more favorable than that of many other common psychoactive agents including alcohol and barbiturates (Phillips et al. 1971, Brill et al. 1970). Acute Effects of Marihuana, from Marihuana, A Signal of Misunderstanding - Table of Contents -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Nearly all medicines have toxic, potentially lethal effects. But marijuana is not such a substance. There is no record in the extensive medical literature describing a proven, documented cannabis-induced fatality. 5. This is a remarkable statement. First, the record on marijuana encompasses 5,000 years of human experience. Second, marijuana is now used daily by enormous numbers of people throughout the world. Estimates suggest that from twenty million to fifty million Americans routinely, albeit illegally, smoke marijuana without the benefit of direct medical supervision. Yet, despite this long history of use and the extraordinarily high numbers of social smokers, there are simply no credible medical reports to suggest that consuming marijuana has caused a single death. 6. By contrast aspirin, a commonly used, over-the-counter medicine, causes hundreds of deaths each year. 7. Drugs used in medicine are routinely given what is called an LD-50. The LD-50 rating indicates at what dosage fifty percent of test animals receiving a drug will die as a result of drug induced toxicity. A number of researchers have attempted to determine marijuana's LD-50 rating in test animals, without success. Simply stated, researchers have been unable to give animals enough marijuana to induce death. 8. At present it is estimated that marijuana's LD-50 is around 1:20,000 or 1:40,000. In layman terms this means that in order to induce death a marijuana smoker would have to consume 20,000 to 40,000 times as much marijuana as is contained in one marijuana cigarette. NIDA-supplied marijuana cigarettes weigh approximately .9 grams. A smoker would theoretically have to consume nearly 1,500 pounds of marijuana within about fifteen minutes to induce a lethal response. 9. In practical terms, marijuana cannot induce a lethal response as a result of drug-related toxicity. 10. Another common medical way to determine drug safety is called the therapeutic ratio. This ratio defines the difference between a therapeutically effective dose and a dose which is capable of inducing adverse effects. 11. A commonly used over-the-counter product like aspirin has a therapeutic ratio of around 1:20. Two aspirins are the recommended dose for adult patients. Twenty times this dose, forty aspirins, may cause a lethal reaction in some patients, and will almost certainly cause gross injury to the digestive system, including extensive internal bleeding. 12. The therapeutic ratio for prescribed drugs is commonly around 1:10 or lower. Valium, a commonly used prescriptive drug, may cause very serious biological damage if patients use ten times the recommended (therapeutic) dose. 13. There are, of course, prescriptive drugs which have much lower therapeutic ratios. Many of the drugs used to treat patients with cancer, glaucoma and multiple sclerosis are highly toxic. The therapeutic ratio of some of the drugs used in antineoplastic therapies, for example, are regarded as extremely toxic poisons with therapeutic ratios that may fall below 1:1.5. These drugs also have very low LD-50 ratios and can result in toxic, even lethal reactions, while being properly employed. 14. By contrast, marijuana's therapeutic ratio, like its LD-50, is impossible to quantify because it is so high. 15. In strict medical terms marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume. For example, eating ten raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death. 16. Marijuana, in its natural form, is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man. By any measure of rational analysis marijuana can be safely used within a supervised routine of medical care. DEA Judge Young's Ruling on Medical Marijuana Now, wasn't that nice? we are safe from the killer weed, now how 'bout the slave masters who tell us crap about how it is going to cause schizophrenia when cannabid actually Helps such afflicted peeps? And, just a quick word about the dreaded addiction idea... it is exactly as fake as the LD50 boolshit was... you know! completely shit to tell other people from the get-go. Cannabis is as addictive as chocolate and that is where it stops. Right there at "Not Addicting at all" peace out from the bush and all here at the grow site
