jamma said: I think thats pretty dumb that they only let researchers research government grown marijuana. Thats not the marijuana that everyone smokes so what is the point of studying that one? Theres so many drug dealers out there that sell marijuana laced, they have special names for them and so many prefer that. I remember during my marijuana smoking days i was obsessed with "purple haze". I still dont know what was in that but it was really purple, no weed grows out purple! Thats the kind of stuff people smoke so it makes sense for that to be the type of stuff people research.

Actually weed does grow purple.  Just like apple trees produce green apples, red apples, fiji apples, they're different seeds.  It's the same for weed, some are stronger and there's hundreds of different kinds. LOL.

I didn't know that either! lol. I do agree though that researchers should research the weed that the people smoke rather than the one that the government grows.
UPS weed

An Arizona UPS truck was cloned. It was painted to look identical to an actual UPS truck, complete with the typical reflective yellow decals, and a home made arizona license plate that actually belonged to a UPS truck. It was stuffed with about 2,118 pounds of marijuana. That’s worth about $1.2 million. The bundles of marijuana had makeshift burlap straps so drug carriers could use them as backpacks. The driver took off into the desert when the truck stopped.

Think of how much money each casino makes! I dont personally gamble, but we go to Vegas once a year with my family and my dad spends at least $5,000 but will not go over. Once he won $7,000 out of just $200 and gave us all $200! That was a very fun trip :) However so many people do go over their limit and have you noticed in the casinos there are no clocks, and no windows. They dont want the players to know what time of day it is that way it keeps them in there longer.

Honestly C, I think what your doing is completely terrible, selfish and wrong. I've been in a relationship where my significant other was getting involved with other relationships, sleeping around, and cheated on me with more girls than he could even remember. He would talk to me when he needed that emotional support knowing he has someone there who loves him and that is not just in it for the fun. And me being the ridiculously stupid, madly in love girlfriend gave him chances everytime. And I trully believe that he would change everytime, that those lies he'd tell me that he loved me and only me and would never go cheat on me again and he learned his lesson were all sincere. I regret all of that, I was an amazing girlfriend to him, completely faithful and I loved him more than anything in the whole world and cared about him more than anyone could. I regret all that now, I wish I would've left him from the first time. And that is how your wife is going to feel. I feel so ridiculous like the whole world is laughing at me because I was so in love with someone who hooked up with every girl, even my friends who knew how I felt about him. I feel played, betrayed and stupid. You'll never know how that feels and neither will he, but its the worst feeling in the world. And your purposly putting your wife through that and enjoying yourself as well. I  think what you need to do is go to a psychologist, and get help and commit to it even if its killing you, commit to it. this isn't like a normal addiction where your only harming yourself your harming every girl you get involved in as well. And from what I told you about what happened to me maybe that will show you how horrible that feeling is, I didn't deserve any of the things my ex put me through and neither does your wife. Either do that or live your life with all these girlfriends and leave your wife because she doesn't deserve this, she deserve someone so much better and you know she can have that at will! just not with you.

brokenpieces said: I'm starting to feel better. I'm paying off some of my debt and I feel relieved. I just read a story though about Stephanie Tanner from Full House - Jodi about her and her husband getting a divorce over money problems. I guess I never really thought about celebrities having money problems. It helps to know I'm not the only one..

Do you remember when Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson were married? (They were they cutest couple i still think they should get back) Well on their show the newly weds they used to fight over money too. He was pretty cheap and she didn't really care much about how much she spent. I guess once they hired a maid to clean their house, and they have a big house obviously, well she took $100 and he was complaining that that was too mcuh and that they wont bring her back anymore. Our maid takes $50 and our house is probably not even half the size as theirs.

alessandra said: Beyonce is not a greedy person whatsoever.  She recently decided to hand over her paycheck from her last movie to the rehab center that she visited.  She was so touched by all of their stories, from all of the women who had lost everything in their lives because of drugs... she gave a lot of money away to support treatment.  That's such a selfless thing to do. She grossed over $80 million last year, her husband made more than that.. she has tons of money to burn, but she's choosing to give back, that's awesome!

I think its amazing when celebrities do that. Like Oprah, she's so selfless she always donates so much money to so many charities and programs that could really use her money. I heard she even gives out scholarships!

totaleclipse said: Can a 79 year old lady stop drop and roll? I cant imagine my grandma doing that. But wow I think thats the most terrible way to die, by burning to death! Ciggs really are death sticks in so many ways.

lol I'm sure she can stop drop and roll, maybe slowly but she probably can. lol that reminds me of a story, my friend has a little brother who is 5 years old, and this kid talks like he's 40! we were at Ihop waiting to be seated and an old man walked in and the kid looked up at him and he was like "what the hell are you doing here go to the hospital your about to die!!" the old man just looked at him and smiled, it was really funny!
But back to this story, I dont understand why she didn't stop drop and roll either, but I guess when your caught on fire and burning you really don't know what to do. I spilled acid on my self in chemistry once and my first action was to try to take off my pants in front of the whole class instead of just getting under the lab shower and rinsing off. thank goodness my friend stopped me. Instead I ran to my car took them off in the car and drove home and took a shower. I didn't spill enough to do any damage so I was safe to do that but my skin did get pretty red and uncomfortable. I'm sure this lady just didn't know what to do either.

I dont think the whole using your body as an experiment thing is a good idea though. No amount of money is worth risking your health.

I guess they could be used for people who want to use them. Energy drinks are not healthy, and we do not know the long term effects for them however people still drink them. I know I do right before tests, I feel like I function better. So they could probably use them for that too. but if officials believe they could benefit rather than have negative effects then I'm sure they'll make them over the counter and not illegal to obtain.

I have a friend who was a BIG myspace fanatic! She was on it constantly and always looking at her friends profiles, pictures, trying to find some new gossip. Anyway her boyfriend wanted her password and she had 3 years worth of messages in her inbox. So she deleted her whole myspace just so that he wouldn't read all those messages. Its been about 2 months and she said she doesn't miss it at all. She thought she would miss it a lot and go through her friends myspace to look at others but she doens't at all.

I only have one credit card and I think that is more than enough! I already have a tough time paying it off and I only use it when I have no money in my checking. But when I first got it I spend a lot on it and basically maxed it out. That was my big problem. But I'm also the type of person who always has to buy expensive things or brand names. I feel strange if I'm not wearing anything brand name. Especially if its a purse!

My mother has a problem with shoes. Its as if she collects them. She buys a pair every time she goes shopping and she only buys the expensive ones too! We moved into a new house and I noticed her shoe rack looked kind of empty and I asked her about it, she smiles and looked proud and said she threw out all her shoes and only kept those and she is not going to buy shoes. My dad always would yell at her for that. Well the other day I needed some pantyhose so I  was searching through her closet (she has a very big closet too) and she has this big cabinet with about 6 drawers in them. I opened up one of the drawers and it was PACKED with shoes. I opened the rest and ALL of them were fully loaded with shoes!

I think cheating should be against the law. Even if your not the person that is cheating but like your a mistress or something, that should be against the law too. If a husband beats up his wife that's against the law and they get in big trouble, well when he cheats on her he is hurting her even more so why isn't that against the law as well?

I think that should be apart of your checkup. You get checked for everything but not mentally, and I believe that mental problems are just as important as physical problems, if not more. So during yearly checkups they should have a psychiatrist question the person as well.

Tai Chi is kind of like a soft martial arts. I'm sure you've seen it in movies, they always have people practicing it. I think it looks pretty cool, I've never done it before tho.

animee said: I wouldn't trust any online things. My cousin did an online thing that was supposed to give her money. Basically they had her download pictures of houses, rooms hotels, things that had to do with interior decorating and all she had to do was put tips on how to decorate it. What types of things to buy where to put it. She would put atleast 50 tips on each room and get paid $100 on each one, and you dont even need a license or anything. Well She gave them her credit card number so that they could transfer the funds and instead they emptied out her whole bank account! She had about $5,000 in it and it all got stolen.

This is why I'm scared to buy things online. Unless it's sites from companies that I know of. Like shopping stores and stuff like that. I even get scared to use my credit card on sites like e-bay.

Honestly I dont think it matters what size you are. Its your body and how it looks good. My cousin is a size zero, she doesn't look anerexic but it just fits her body and shes beautiful. I have a friend whos a size 7, she is not fat what so ever, but her body is full. She looks great in a bathing suit and can pull of so many shirts that I never would be able to. I'm a size one and I'm fine with my weight, I wouldn't want to be any bigger and I definitely dont try to be smaller.

That made me sad! I can't imagine getting one of those phone calls. I was getting my nails done once and so was this girl next to me, we were both getting pedicures. Her phone rang and all of a sudden she started screaming and crying. Her 12 year old brother died, he was driving with his older friends he wasn't wearing a seat belt and he flew from the back seat through the front seat window. I dont know how I would ever survive that, but your right, God carries you through. And we make it out OK.

I think both your mothers are right. You shouldn't settle for a guy unless he is absolutely perfect for you and unless your married. Most the guys I have been with, a few of my friends didn't like. I've vowed to never date another guy that my friends didn't like because in the end they were always right. But if you look at all your friends who are in amazing relationships, all of their friends definitely approve of him. And your mothers are right, if your with someone and someone else comes a long, you should give them a chance because they could be much better for you than the guy your with. I believe when it comes to a relationship you dont want to be in then its OK to be selfish. I've stayed in relationships many times because I didn't want to hurt the guy but in the end I was hurting my self by staying with them.
