Today is also David Bowie's birthday - he apparently loved to read books too, according to the Winnipeg Public Library

"During his career, Bowie talked about the books and writers he liked, everything from Allan Ginsberg and William Burroughs, to Stephen King ("I love Stephen King, scares the s--- out of me").

He retained an interest in British authors: Martin Amis ("funny"); Peter Ackroyd ("there's a great mysticism in his work. I've read everything he's ever written. That disquieting underbelly that he sees in London, that's how I perceive it too."); Julian Barnes ("I really like him, it's another world")

*sigh*, I still miss him so much. I'm thinking of getting a (very arty) David tattoo.

Happy birthday David, Elvis and all of the January babies here on the board.

It's legal in Washington state where Tery lives so she has (and uses) the option already. ;)
Oh good! Did not know that...

So now I have to ask Tery - how is it? I see a doctor at the end of February regarding this very thing (getting a prescription). It took that long because there was a huge waiting list.

If you were up here in Canada you could get a prescription for some cannabis oil (heavy on the CBD but light on the THC) - it's nice to have that option

Yep. We can even grow our own and we do quite well in that department. B and his bro make this kif that I put in my cookies. Since I have chronic pain, it helps my pain meds work better with less. It also helps me sleep. If you like, PM me and I'll share my yuummy cookie recipe. :)

Okay, when I was glimpsing at thread titles, I first read this one as Happy Birthday to all our JUNE babies.
I thought to myself, "Dang! They really want to be ahead of things for board closings"........ then I had some coffee and read it correctly :laugh:

Happy Birthday to all you Snowbabies!! :cheerful:
