RIck Steves!!

[GeRzAwN]

I kind of felt bad seeing Rick Steves approving of marijuana, in that it's a civil liberty. I admired him because he looks so nice, he looks like someone that would disapprove of it and would counsel me not to smoke weed. But now it kind of made me look at him differently. I still think he's cool though.

weed is the best antipsychotic

[Smoothorganicsmoke]

I love Rick Steves! I watch his travel shows often. Didn't know he was such a mj supporter. He really went all out on that speech

[Bret1Maverick]
