RE: [Frank Bacon] - Why Cannabis?
The only thing I "Smoked" in school was cigarettes and the tests, by graduating with two degrees and Honors.

That's quite a story Frank and even through you say it is from the Quixotic Malcotent (great blog btw :), I read it as your story and believe it to be so based on other stuff you have shared about your life. Besides, can't find the text elsewhere on www nor an entry in QM search for 'cannabis' that matches this.
I can see that you 'never wanted to be a stoner' lol. I think I did, although until I was 18 I tried to 'conform' and only started to 'rebel' pretty late. I also wasn't subjected to the same intensity of anti-weed propaganda in India and when it came into my life (at the age of n-n-n-19) I took to it like a fish to water.
I've seen Jacob's Ladder and remember it well, including the 'angel' chiropractor scene. It was a movie that had quite an effect on me when I saw it in the mid-90s - the switching back and forth between realities, the dramatic ending.
Wise words of realisation!
Love your non-crypto writing style bro
Very nice of you to come in about this. The story was written for LinkedIn in 2016 at a time where I was "Experimenting" with social networking for Busy-Ness. It went away when I dumped that particular account at the beginning of 2017 to go all in on SteemIt for an entirely not so different "Experiment."
To be fair, I love Cannabis now and have deprogrammed from the Cult of Ignorance which says you can cage an adult for possessing flowers... it's essentially what the laws say. I have also indoctrinated nearly everyone around me into at least ingesting CBD on a regular basis. The existence of an endo-cannabinoid system is all the evidence I need to know the Drug War and the Scheduling SCAM is an effort to kill people slowly while parasitically living off the suffering. I wish I had really listened to more Stoners growing up but I will endeavor to continue the Great Work of Stoners now that I've come back from the dead a few times, thanks to this shrub.
Given another year or two there will be a simple way for you to "Tour" Colorado on Steem and see what we're reversing from the old world and building in the new. In the meantime, I really enjoy how well this Blockchain works for Authors who are into KNEW ways of engaging. As you probably know I started here 3 years ago with NO CLUE and NO Content. What I've built here in that time is important to me but is incredibly nice to know it catches other's attention too. Especially yours.
Kind Regards Bruv!
I appreciate your attention, Always!
It's wonderful to come across an expression of You ie so 'directly' lol. Of course this is present in the background when you speak on shows etc - I aspire to that particular quality of free-flowing clarity with which you verbalise your thoughts and are able to maintain focus with, bending like the bamboo in the face of high winds and verbal storms :). Coming across you in that episode with ASE and EricW triggered a new phase of my blockchain experience as I see it...apart from anything it revived the idea of 'fiction' as a great medium (the most factual perhaps!) of expression.......and the rabbitholes are mindblowing at times. There's a lot I don't 'get', but the fact is that I have seen a wide range of your expression and nothing has made me raise my eyebrows in a 'wtf' reaction (such as I started having with FTG and expressed 😩)....I see consistency, integrity and principles (which are by and large aligned very much with my own) in your self-expression and the topics you write about, the posts you resteem. The range of your communication styles/registers, according to context, is a display of skill and not an act, not really a LARP (in spite of the costume, the stage, the role :).....and the subtlety of it all!!
I'm glad to have an opportunity to express this to you directly. I am always honoured by your attention too, brother, I know you hear me at many levels 🙏.
I've had thoughts of Colorado on the back of the coming Steemboom too lol, I look forward to such a time in the near future 🤗.
🙏😎👍🥓

......lol. They say 'Glasgow's miles better/smiles better :) and they ask 'What's the best thing to come out of Edinburgh?'...and they answer, "The Road to Glasgow".......
Ha ha, and the irony is:
.....so I went elsewhere to check it out and found what I think has to be the match :), love it!
In spite of reputation Glasgow is a down-to-earth friendly ruffian, and Edinburgh is an impossibly beautiful snob!
I also like pointing out that it's important to find humor in things. ✌💝
I really enjoy your work here.
