An eminent scientist group have caused controversy recently by standing up to the official government line in the Uk on marauanna and ecstassy use,claiming that they are LESS dangerous than mass produced cigarettes,and alcohol,The group had been set up by the BRIT government and had spent 4 years studying the use of marie and ecstassy and were expected to toe the official line,they were then promptly sacked /fired for publishing the result of their study,so as any0ne got some Marie around here
@cjthemusicman .... LOL Chuck... it wasnt my thing,.... I tried it but I got "weird"... Yes ,ME ,weird.. hard to believe I know :)))) Thank you!!! xoxox
LOL. Have you seen the old black and white propaganda film "Reefer Madness"? It's another example of the inward looking, backward thinking conservatism of yore. Great vid, Nancy, shall feature it. :)
Where are the bubbles? I Can't believe that this was on the Lawrence Welk show... My God.... that's too funny.... enjoyed the vid and get the message... DO DRUGS.. LOL...
Some radio stations refused to play this song because of the drug references, but not everyone got this meaning. The song was performed on the Lawrence Welk Show by a "wholesome" couple that had NO clue what a toke was. Welk, at the conclusion of the performance of the song, remarked, without any hint of humor, "there you've heard a modern spiritual by Gail and Dale."
Great video. But alas I have a confession to make because of this video. You are forcing it out of me. I am addicted to..........no don't make me say it.................. alright I'll admit it........... I'm addicted to ............. I'm addicted to NUTMEG!!!!! I feel better already. Seriously a good job on this vid. and the idea behind it.
I once found a book at a park that was about the fear mongering and campaign against marijuana that happened back then... I read it and it was a really good book!
Thank you dreamwildly... Yes, and the fear mongering continues ,especially during the Bush yrs..This version cracked me up as it was on Lawrence Welk.. as a SPIRITUAL :) xo...BTW Im a retired detox nurse so Im not FOR drugs :) xoxo
Gale & Dale were the Bomb :) QC
