His memory and mind are clearly non-fucked. You'd never know he's a smoker unless he told you. I know I didn't.

I'm just saying, drugs affect everyone differently. I've no doubt there are others like you, but there are also folks like myself and my dad--folks who don't leave the eggs frying, no matter how stoned we are.
Don't get me wrong, I don't advertise to people that I'm a smoker, I have a good job where I am relied on, I'm very active and I also care about people and believe in telling the truth about my experience, that does'nt stop me from smoking the stuff though. Ending on a positive note, my eye sight has improved, I see many things that others just don't see, I suppose I should call this a gift from the earth.
