Was privy (video linked) to a very informative lecture today on the ECS. I'll share more next week perhaps if I get time, but one thing arose which disturbed me.

Organs are still being turned away due to previous cannabis use by their donor. I can't begin to get my head around how backwards that is.

I'm O Negative and they won't accept my blood. 4000 chemicals in tobacco but that's fine. Had I just smoked tobacco they couldn't get it out of my veins fast enough

Neither did my old man, but he just died with Dementia mate. Physically fitter than most men I know, but mentally was totally scrambled, such a horrible disease.

Christ mate I don't envy you! Don't mind my diabetes (other than the bi-monthly eye injections I gave to have after 39 years with the disease). It's comfortably manageable and I live a normal life! Whinged like **** as a kid though and look at what that poor little Bradley goes through and think "what a dick I was"!

There was a fella on the radio who said he found a way of guaranteeing living to be 150 (he was in his 50's or something) - live on his own, never had children and never will, never had a wife and never will (nor a girlfriend/boyfriend - no idea whether he was straight or not) - he said this is a way of guaranteeing prolonging your life.

If I could live to be 140 and not have my wife and kids as part of my life, I'd rather die tomorrow!
