Particularly rough when you are an RN and drug test often in the clinical environment...... But I am using my voice now for this cause. It was an RN who helped get MMJ legalized in Rhode Island ya know?
And I see many people who MMJ benefits. But as I see it many of the the pot smokers are hurting the cause.
But just because I am old don't mean life is OVER! BABY BOOMERS WON'T retire like their parents did....to the rocking chairs......HELL NO!!
Actually I am now flying ultra-light planes at 10,000 ft ''''scary indeed!
My gentleman friends passion and hobby actually. BUT I am a risk taker.......So body is getting old and brain is still young.
So you young stoners please show respect to us that were brave enough to be there in the sixties protesting our parents values and mores! No one will equal my generation again.  |
Amen to that, my fellow Boomer!! I'm glad to see another person from our generation around the place. Hit the big 6-0, huh? That's beautiful!!
I agree that we have an excellent generation...we go back to when there was only 3 channels on TV, no technology yet [calculators, cellphones, computers, video games, etc]...we had more adventures travelling the USA & Mexico than this generation will ever have.
They really can't hitch-hike anymore, for fear of the people who might give them a ride being total maniacs. Plus when we were in the work-force [I'm retired], there was no such thing as piss-tests for employment. We're the last of the 'pre-technology' generations, but I'll bet we had more fun experiencing life 1st hand than the latter generations. 1 cross-country trip I took was almost 2 yrs long...& ventured deep into Mexico. I only wish I would've kept a journal, as I'm sure I've forgotten a bunch of fun I had. Of course, a lot of drug-ingesting might play a small part in my memory-lapse.
Anyhow, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
