http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2007/06/leafsdv.gifIt's often ignored in medical literature, but there are thousands of people who are unable to get high. These poor souls must live their day to day lives completely sober, and only a few who are able to get their hands on an herb known as "marijuana" can live the life they deserve: reading way too much into Mary Poppins and thinking a Twinkie dipped in ranch dressing is the best snack ever.
But I kid the pot heads. More seriously, medical marijuana has had its supporters and detractors for many years, and a new feature-length doc from Showtime called In Pot We Trust (http://www.sho.com/site/announcements/20070611inpot.do) will explore the issue by focusing on chronically ill patients who use the drug and obtain it through legal channels.

If you have Showtime you might wish to watch this on July 9th.
Our friend, Elvy Musika (sp?)who was the guest speaker at a recent East Side PDX meeting is one of the five patients that they are speaking about. Those of you who were there, can appreciate her story and being a part of the Oregon MMJ community now.

Mark it on your calendars!!

Wow thanks for the link. This is a double whammy for me for they have the article about autism right under the MMJ post :0) Not sure about a musical about autism, but I will read it over :0)
