34. The article says the activity of smoking cannabis is "foolish"!

I vapor almost every day. Only in my 20's going to grad school and establishing a foothold in my career did I not enjoy cannabis regularly. Cannabis makes me ( not all ) sleepy. Great, deep sleep. And in those days I had no time to be well rested. Well now I am. And I don't think taking a a few hits of vapor most nights is foolish. My sleep is better, my sex is better, the quality of my life is richer. So if I'm being foolish, then the activity of drinking a nice glass of pinot noire or cabernet most nights must be "foolish" too. Eh. Millions do that too.

Dude. Face meet mirror!
