CANNABIS USE ON VANCOUVER ISLAND

53% of residents use cannabis on Vancouver island and in all of BC also. Health officials are very worried about this. On the other hand, magazines like Cannabis Health claim that is good for you in moderation. I found this magazine under a pile of travel brochures that i was showing to a friend from Jakarta. He started to laugh and told me he had no idea i such magazines around my house. Well, i don't where it came from...probably left behind when Maya stayed with me a few years ago. It is a very interesting magazine to read.

The possible medical benefits of Marijuana seem to be endless.

New Zealand has the highest rate of cannabis use, 80% of 21 year olds have tried it and also more than half of people aged 14-45 have tried it. They also have the highest rate of being arrested for using it.

So if you attend a large party here where 53% of them are using cannabis you have a risk of getting high on second-hand smoke. Just like our gold medal snowboarder!!

My horror-scope the other day:

In the next few weeks, you might feel vaguely irritable or uneasy. Be aware that childish behaviour on your part could suddenly errupt out of nowwhere (Embarassing but true) These undermining patterns from your past that you're hardley aware of!

November rain storm
she walks out without umbrella
much giggling (is that a word)?

October fest party --
beer and bratwurst
silly laughter

Large tomatoes --
she carves faces on them
before eating

Trying to open wine --
the cork slips into the bottle
felling corked

The family laugh at me for being unable to open a bottle of wine without help. This family has had one Chef and now has two Sommelier. So there is always help when needed. I learned to open my own bottle of bubbly from watching James Bond, and yes i can do it in the dark like he can.

Well no more silly stuff today, i feel irritable.
