Hi y'all. Not much hunting in St Petersburg, Fl but I do get to do my share of fishing. I agree that the fun is just being "out there". Even though I live in the city, I still find a lot of enjoyment in nature. It's so pretty, particularly when the sun is just setting or shortly after. The colores on the bay can be amazing. Reminds me of the sixties.
Speaking of legalizing marijuana, I think it should be legal for many reasons. Jeez the tax revenue alone would probably eliminate the need for the income tax and give the left all the money they need for all of their "special projects". My take on it being a "gateway drug" is that IF it is it is because the fact that it is illegal forces users to go to the "black market" to purchase it. Hence, once committing a crime it becomes easier to commit other crimes, ie, the purchasing of other illegal drugs. I've seen, what's that movie?....short term memory loss....oh yeah "Reefer Madness" and I'm here to tell ya, I've never known anyone that smoked pot go whack his/her mother upside the head with a cast iron frying pan. Even if they wanted to, they were too lethargic to bother :) SH
