Hey Torog....just a quick question for you. I know you had to go talk to the man recently about that situation. You had said you'd come back and let us know how you are and how things turned out. I am assuming that you cannot do so from what I read in a previous post.
Just wanted to know if you're okay......
Take care amigo!!!
Onward!

The other thing that I said I couldn't talk about,is about how I wound up in trouble to begin with. One thing that disturbs me and pisses me off,is that on the investigation report that I recieved a copy of,the lead investigator reccomends that the case remain open. I suppose to see if I start letting folks send me gifts of compassion again,through the mail..well I learned my lesson about that-and I ain't gonna be doing that again!
Have a good one ! :stoned:
Hey Torog, I guess that is ok, like you said, it could have been worst.
Have ya'll heard that funding for the task forces been took away? Read it the other day. Good hair Perry sending it to the border to fight the evil smugglers.

'They' know-that crack and meth,are the true danger to our community,but they still believe in wasting their time with marijuana prosecution.
Have a good one ! :stoned:
i feel for u buddy...i been smoking for 35 yrs more or less and the situation hasn't gotten any better...in a government that is supposed to be for the people ,by the people...it is run by a group of snobs,incompetents and self rightous bastards .the point is not to give up,i support NORML and other causes...the time WILL come and this old fucker WILL be around to see it...even if i 'm 1000:thumbsup:

Now that I've been 'outed',as a medical user of marijuana,I need to git involved and try to make a difference-shame on me for not doing such until now. To that end,I have already changed my website to include banners for TMM and LEAP,gonna put up the NORML and MPP banners soon. Being outed to my family,has allowed me to do such,before-I didn't want them to know what was really going on with me.
Yup..I hope that we are both alive,to see some real change,here in Texas and elsewhere,we came close to passing the medical need defense bill and decrim of small amounts,gotta keep the pressure on and I'd be willing to testify before the State legislature,if that's what it takes.
Have a good one ! :stoned:
Glad to hear you're okay partner. I worried that your presence on here had somehow been used as blackmail against you or something.
Try to keep a low profile for awhile. But if you decide to go out in a blaze of glory, let us know so that we can get good seats!!!!! :thumbsup:
Take care of yourself, and I hope your back problems don't get too rough for you.
Onward!
