HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! Omigod! That is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Ha! Ha! Ha!

Go, George, go! This is better than "Bedtime For Bonzo".


Well, back to the pot and cats issue...Daylia, I am entirely in favour of cats eating marijuana leaves if they want to. In fact, I recommend the eating of marijuana to anyone who really wants to...just not the smoking of it. It's the smoke itself I object to, not the substance or the "getting high" experience in a general sense. Just the smoke. Smoke is bad for my nasal passages, throat, and mucus membranes, and it hurts my eyes. It leaves smelly residue on my clothing and in my hair. I don't like incense much either, for the same reason.

It's a social custom. When people get used to social customs, they take them for granted. I don't take smoking for granted, because I grew up in a nonsmoking home. You really notice these things when you don't take them for granted.

After all, dogs love to roll in shit and dead bodies, don't they? They think it's great, and they take it for granted. We don't. We think they stink when they do that. We kick them outta the house or throw them in the tub. Well...that's what happens when you don't take stuff for granted. It may seem quite bothersome, senseless, unexplainable, and downright awful.

It's all a question of perception, based on past experience... ;-)

(And DON'T bring Bob Dylan's voice into this! If you do, I will be forced to make certain comments regarding Neil Young's vocal abilities.)

(that was a joke)
