Ping!
Maybe that helps explain the ascension of the ObaMessiah.
So 91% don’t.
That’s really weird. I know some people from just about every age group, that still drink a lot!!
What a strange story, sure short on details.
As a baby boomer, I ask who are these people? My baby boomer friends are to busy and involved in life to get high. And if they are, why aren’t they sharing?
Some boomers really need to grow the hell up!

Yes. They should be catching their buzz with approved substances only. Wine, beer, spirits, cigarettes, you know, stuff like that. How dare they go off the reservation and smoke some reefer?
My newly single mother has recently started hanging out with some single folks her own age and she says everybody smokes weed. She was shocked.
A lot are still getting high on liquor as well. We should kick in their doors and shoot their pets because they feel intoxicated. Additionally, we should report our neighbors and give the police paramilitary powers to stop people from consuming beer because beer makes people high.
Just curious...how old is your Mother? Mine’s 81 and it wouldn’t cross her mind.
59, and from a very small town in LA (Lower Alabama). They pretty much missed all the hippie crap in the 60’s.

They are your kid’s school teachers. Maybe the librarian at the public library. Perhaps even your attorney. Maybe your banker, or the PR guy.
I get a call periodically to sit in on the poker game my bro in law sits in on. The paragraph above is a list of their actual professions. Tokers, all of them. Boomers, all of them.
As for why they are not sharing ... maybe they don’t think you’d approve or want to join in.
Or how people are going to cope for the next 3.5 years.
My AA sponsor says weed is also verbotten. :-(
59 makes perfect sense. I went to a James Taylor concert 20 years ago and joints were being passed around by all the 40 somethings. I was 28 at the time.
I do think this has alot to do with it. I have tried to have logical conversations with weed smoking idiots in their 50's. They all have pits in their brains and keep repeating " global warming", " pot should be legal", " we need change", " big companies are bad", " Bush ruined this country". So we have stoned out mind numb robots as well as mind numb robots who are just morons out there voting.
Perhaps she needs to find a different crowd!
Perhaps, but the folks she hangs with are all conservative and moderately to very successful people. Oh, and she met a lot of them at Church.
They are too paranoid ; )
