29. Well, at least when we get recreational pot in every state,

that will alleviate a lot of the pain med under-prescription. When it's legal, I intend to grow one plant indoors under a grow light upstairs - just enough for the occasional pan of brownies. And not let word get out around here because that's begging home invasion. Since I stared down the local militia, nobody's made another peep about bothering me any way at all, and I don't intend to attract trouble.
