So my experimentation as a teenager was thwarted out of fear. Probably a smart thing too since my family tree is full of easily addicitive people.
As an adult, I've always been in a job that does drug testing and it's not worth losing my job. I used to say the moment I retire I was going to go buy some just to see what the thrill was but I've gone without for this long, I guess I can do without till the end.
It's kind of ironic that with my screen name a lot of people think it refers to drugs, of course if they knew about old Rock & Roll music they would know it's the name of a song by Roy Orbison. It's a cross I have to bear cause nobody is going to induce me to change my name.
I did try wacky weed back in the 60's but didn't much care for it. I never even smoked cigarettes so inhaling smoke from a joint didn't sit too well with me. The thought of bringing smoke into my lungs is a totally outrageous concept to me. I just don't think mammals were meant to breath smoke.
To the OP, your screenname says it all.
