You know: "cannabis, ganja, pot, grass, marihuana, dope, weed, gage, sess, sens, smoke, skunk, Mary Jane?" Have you ever? Would you ever?

This is relativly anonymous, so be honest

i never have, almost did once but the circumstances at the time ended up preventing me from doing so. I can honestly say i have no intention of now. My imagination is a scary enough place without bringing it to life.

Never have, never interested me, even if it did, I'm too old to try new things now.

I might like to try it sometime, but I don't know how to get some.

I always thought your name was a Marijuana referance.

Oh, I used to smoke it a lot, as well as do many other drugs, but I got into a lot of legal trouble so I stopped.

I did smoke semi-regularly when I was an Undergraduate - of course that was the late 70's so it was just expected of you...

Smoked every now and then in the 80's but for the last 15 years I've had to maintain a Govt. Security clearance and I'm not going to risk that just for the momentary pleasure. Now if they ever legalize the stuff, who knows.... As I recall, the sensation was rather pleasant.

Never even been tempted. The smoke from the crowd of pot smokers outside high school would make me nauseous. Tobacco was bad enough but there were always a few joints mixed in.

The lesson I got from pot smoking?

You can feel a lot better than you do, and it still won't be enough.

I can definately see why artists of old used to use substances to alter their reality. Their reality (in the unaltered form) was a pretty interesting place to be, and then to have it magnified? No wonder van Gogh was such a genius. Without absinthe his Starry Starry Night would have been a grove of cypress trees, nothing more.
