I have been blessed with very healthy children. Thank You, God!
Other parents haven't been quite so fortunate.

I had a friend who lost her 5-year-old son, Bobby, to cancer. They were our neighbors in the military housing at Fort Meade Maryland while we were stationed there. My oldest daughter and Bobby were in the same Kindergarten class.

No 5-year-old child should have to go through the testing, medical treatments, doctor's visits, hospital stays, etc. And they should never have to go through chemotherapy with it's resultant side effects such as nausea, vomiting, weight loss, lack of energy, and insomnia (to name a few). Add on top of all that misery....pain.

My question is this.......Why would someone let a child go through all that and stand back and not do everything they could to help?

Okay, it's time to set the record straight. I have heard many explanations for the origin of "420" having something to do with the time to smoke pot.

The one I hear most often is that 420 is the police code for a marijuana bust.

I recently read on Snopes that it actually started among a group of twelve students.

This is a press release of a letter written to New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson regarding his recent decision to go ahead with his state's recently approved medical marijuana law - despite threats of raids by federal officers.

 In July 2007, the House of Representatives failed to approve an amendment that would stop federal agencies from using taxpayer funds to conduct raids on medical marijuana users and providers in states where medical marijuana is legal.

This  letter is to inform Governor Richardson of the more effective way to keep his programs in operation and stop the interference from the Feds once and for all.

Richardson seems to be ready to bump heads with the federal government! I can't wait to see how this plays out.

In this country, it has become very popular for companies to require drug screening as a condition of employment. You've seen the "This is a drug-free workplace" signs, I'm sure.

This is wrong, wrong, wrong!!!

No company has the right to control what it's employees do in their off-time. No matter how much the pay. Period. End of story.

But there's more.
