Slow Start

I had to laugh today, as I realized that this blog was off to a slow start and a start that could not be more appropriate. So far this blog is like a good high in that it was a great idea with all sorts of pep and vigor. Somewhere along the line, during the glow that always comes from a good "High" idea, the ability to execute got a little lost. There was enough to get started, but not enough to make a real contribution.
I always have to laugh when people talk about the legalization of marijuana. The fact that it is illegal has as much to do with it's participants as it does the substance itself. The folks that got alcohol legalized were very motivated, they wanted to get things done, so they could enjoy a drink. The "drinkers" I know are always motivated to get things done, as the sooner we finish, the sooner they are at the bar having a drink. The folks that are working for the legalization of marijuana get together, get high first (because that will help with creativity and focus) and then proceed to come up with all sorts of great ideas and then, well you know, nothing. As the high sets in, anything that involves effort, becomes less and less attractive. Well that's ok, we'll get them next time.
