azinines right on this one, you get a lot of conflicting opinions regarding the use of marijuana. i have smoked a lot in years past, and found, that (as with all things) when kept to acceptable minimum it is both enjoyable and relaxing. i mean, how often you do you come home from the gym absolutely aching and broken? every time you go hopefully. marijuana, many will argue, is an effective way of easing yourself and relaxing after hard physical work, and yeah, you may be smoking, which is unhealthy, but your not popping loads of painkillers, are you? and if the smoking bothers you, you can always eat it, then your not doing yourself much harm at all. the problem with its use, i find, (as with all things) is becoming dependant on it. so really iv just gone on for 5 minutes when all i needed to say was 'the odd joint every now and again wont hurt you'
