My friend who had a full ride to UO golf team but got kicked off/quit because he just wanted to smoke

My friend who had a full ride cross country scholarship but smoked his way out of shape and out of a scholarship

Kid in my youth group who stopped going to school because he just wanted to go get high with his friends




Those are just off the top of my head in about a minute.
I think Duck07 last line agrees with what you are saying here,

Ya, I can say I have lost a lot friends to weed over the years, but not in a bad way. Getting high and not doing a whole lot outside of work is what they enjoyed doing and it's not what I enjoyed doing so we grew apart. But I have no issue with it being legalized, as I don't see it changing much in who smokes or when anyways.

This is from Oregonlive on M-92 (label GMO's) and doesn't include the last 10 days worth of $$ that came pouring last minute, which would partly explain why it's looking more and more like it won't pass once 100% is counted.

Doesn't look like we'll know the full effects of this law until the first half of 2016, based on how the law is written and the basic information provided by the Oregonian.

Q: After July 1, how much marijuana can I have? A-... 72 ounces of marijuana-infused liquid...
That is a lot of ha$h oil. I live near Kesey's old house and walk barefoot quite a bit, anybody got an old schoolbus? Image

Which parts were you not happy with? Your down in Cali right? Or was that just over the summer?

I wonder what Kitz will find to waste $200-300M on during these next four years?

I agree with you on both accounts, quite sad.

Knowing him, he'll find a way and then run for re-election again acting like he didn't do anything wrong.

I grew up about a mile, as the crow flies, from Kesey's place... There was a school bus buried behind a horse arena, on Parkway (Dude was running a meth lab out of it). Other than that, I have no suggestions on the bus.

I know members of the Kesey family (it's Ken's brother's family) that own Springfield Creamery and the McDonald Theater in Eugene so maybe I'll ask if they have an extra bus the next time I see them.

Doesn't he have to take a leave from office after this term?

I don't know the answer to that but if true, I'm sure we will see a ballot measure in 2016 to amend the state constituton to allow Kitz to continue to run and crap on this state with each successive victory. Frankly, Richardson wasn't much (if any) better but Kitz is just terrible. He gets away with fiscal and ethical murder and still get elected in a landslide.

Nice, although I'm talking about his place on the coast, not out in the valley.
