DON'T FORGET TO SMOKE YOUR WEEDIES

From AOL news site.

Researchers at the Scripps Research Institute in California found that marijuana's active ingredient, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, can prevent the neurotransmitter acetylcholine from breaking down more effectively than commercially marketed drugs.

THC is also more effective at blocking clumps of protein that can inhibit memory and cognition in Alzheimer's patients, the researchers reported in the journal Molecular Pharmaceutics.

Weird. At the peak of my excess (1981), I can remember forgetting things all the time. Guess it was some other factor.

It was making you forget so you could remember later.

It's all about timing.

What the hell was I thinking? I *love* cottage cheese.

Pears suck, though. Ahh...sometimes I miss the *old* The_Dude...
