Growing Pot

Sounds like a magical Chia pet. Its not. Its a crime - at least that is what lawmakers will have you believe. I think to say that we humans are a confused hypocritical bunch would be below an understatement in a Wodehousy way. We know not what we want yet would stand and argue about pros and cons of one over another. Frankly my best thinking comes on the Pot without recourse to the use of Pot. If that is not confusing I know not what is. Pot to some provides the ultimate escape when pain takes on surreal dimensions not felt by mortals that have no way to experience it. Cancer patients and certain individuals that are caught in the wicked grasp can relate. Growing the weed (it is what it is) though is frowned on. More than frown is punishable by law. Funds are actually allocated to track said farmers small and big and much is made of the news when it breaks. To say that there is an underground market for all things illegit is stating the obvious and obtaining an above ground weed by going underground is just par for the course. There however are some legit operations that can purvey said weed at a clinic whence it stops being a weed and takes on the role of an analgesic. So as we debate the merits of growing pot we certainly need to put some money in the pot to grow our intellect. We don't want to be called Potty after all. Dope is enough.

  1. Maybe the potty got its name by design and not accident- making you think, in a different way. But I wonder what this guy Pol Pot was- he might have been completely under the influence as he set about killing a few hundred thousands.

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

Gab about Gaps

There are a number of news stories these days where conversation inevitably turns to discussing some sort of GAP - Gap between rich and poor is growing Gap is losing market share to other clothiers The Dow is Gapping Down (so is the NASDAQ) and the dollar is Gapping Up The guy who advised British public over the PA on dangers of tube travel with the phrase 'MIND THE GAP' has died There is a frightening Gap between our Debts and Savings Gap between Executive pay and Average worker salary is at an all time high All I am doing is listening to all this unfold with my mouth aGAPe. What me worry?
