Just introducing myself, like the forum name indicates.

[Shylock]

Hello everybody....
I'm a newbie, living in Oklahoma. Blah. I'm not technically a user, I've been researching because my Dr. *cough* never suggested that I check out mj as an option for controlling my seizures. Something that none of the stupid meds I've taken seem to do.
Anyways, I'm exceedingly pro mj, and always happy to meet like minded people, I have my AIM name on my profile, so reply to this or hit me up on there, whatever floats your boat!

Thanks shake
I've done a lot of reading on the forums, interesting stuff here. Its really a culture and community I really didn't know existed until a couple of months ago..... Being homeschooled really gives you an odd perspective on the world :-P
