Marijuana 101: School teaches ins, outs of pot
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 4/21/08 | Justin Berton

Posted on 04/21/2008 1:49:51 PM PDT by GSWarrior

Ryan and Matthew Epperley awoke at 4 a.m. in Redding, loaded their Dodge Durango with clothes for the weekend and arrived in Oakland on a Saturday morning just in time to attend their first class at Oaksterdam University.

The brothers were among 20 people enrolled in the two-day course that, by Sunday evening, would teach them how to own and operate a pot club in California. They'd learn how to grow their product indoors, harvest it and cook with it, and hear from several lecturers on the legality of such a practice.

Well isn’t that special. What is the textbook, “Dope Growing for Dummies”?

I wish I knew Mr. Leroy's user name de jour so I could ping him.

He would like this.

Can’t stand the smell of the stuff, myself.

Ryan and Matthew Epperley awoke at 4 a.m. in Redding....

Stoners waking up at 4:00am is a bit hard to believe. Now, 4:20am is another matter entirely.

What I don’t like about the Medical MJ movement is most users aren’t legit. Now they call the stores “clubs”. This kind of stuff could kill legit medical use.

I suffer from a rare sensory disorder and MJ was the only drug that allowed me to function normally. If anyone touches me today, my skin crawls and I can get panic attacks if touched long.

I can live without it but can’t have an intimate relationship or be in crowds. I’ve hit my girlfriend by reflex because my body interprets touch as pain.

So far, no pills or therapy have helped and I am seriously considering moving west for medical purposes.

Growing it here will make me fail a work drug test and have the DEA knocking.

I highly recommend 800-900mg/day of magnesium in the form of magnesium malate. It will definitely help and definitely will NOT hurt.

"... and hear from several lecturers on the legality of such a practice."

"Good morning class. I'm United States Attorney General Michael Mukasey. I'm here to lecture you on the legality of marijuana."

"Everything this class is teaching you is illegal -- from owning and operating a pot club in California to growing your own product indoors, harvesting it and cooking with it. If we catch you doing any of this, you will be sent to federal prison."

"Any questions? I didn't think so. Thank you very much for your time."

While he’s there, he can go down the the Constitutional Law class and tell them all about the Commerce Clause.

May as well. It’ll be legal soon. We know how to cook with and make alcohol. Alcohol has destroyed a hell of a lot more lives than pot.

Good luck. It sounds awful what you are dealing with. I’m on my second year of chemo so I can relate as well.
