Hempday Humpday!  Git yerself some hempy food and chow down!  I’m starting to pick up more hemp foods lately and they really are tasty and good for you.  Ever try raw hempseed?  Tastes kinda like cashews.

Today for our dose of Cannabis Science we’re visiting with Dr. Earleywine about creativity.  Does smoking the herb help with creativity.  After the first time I heard Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, I figured, sure it does!  But would the Beatles and all those great writers, artists, poets, musicians, and painters who enjoyed cannabis (and lots of other things) have been as creative in abstinence?  What do you think?

In my life, I know there have been some really difficult database design problems I’ve solved in a flash after a good sativa and a nap, problems that dogged me when I was sober.  But did I just need a nap?  Musically I always felt more in command of the stage after a couple puffs and a shot of Southern Comfort.  But was that just overcoming stage fright?

Allen St. Pierre, NORML’s Executive Director, stops by with a list of his Top Ten Cannabis Conundrums – unique legal problems facing the cannabis community due to prohibition in the 21st century.

Enjoy the Stashy goodness!

I am the producer of The NORML Network, the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog, and NORML's Outreach Coordinator. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" and I travel across the country to educate people on marijuana reform. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to give voice to the Marijuana Nation and to speak for those who can't speak up.
