Did I spill the beans???

I'm beyond ecstatic for you! As you may know, my wife is on her own journey to prove the medical community wrong.... we are both absolutely convinced that she will. I shared your success with her!

Now go buy some more tools!



I'm going to pass the 6 months in the middle of November. I will be on Snap-On's website that day!

Funny --- I used to see certain cars in the RV mirror --- and I'd just pull over and let them by.... now I roll up on those guys with as much vengeance as I can muster.... and I think maybe "I" have become one of the cars they see and pull over!! LOL

SEAT TIME and SUTTON SAUCE!

I drove two or three sessions on Saturday and had an absolute blast!

Charley took over duties of driving the old worn out POS on Sunday. Bob Braga and Sieg then took the trailer and Mustang up to Charley's for us on their way home.

Very many - too many - poignant moments.... and that was a bit emotionally draining. But damn we had fun!
Greg you have no idea how stoked I was when you jumped into the passenger seat. After watching you kill it on track on Sat I just couldn't bear to watch you sit idle without some Sunday adrenaline pump. I loved passing by the flag station seeing "#36 hands in the car" on the message board.

Thanks for the track pointers. It don't see how a future track day will top the experience of my first time on Sonoma Raceway.

See you at T-Hill.

I have been googling "Rick Simpson oil" and there is some amazing reading. Anybody out there fighting cancer should at least read about it.

There's a few choice bits of information in this video that sold me on the viability of RSO treatment: https://youtu.be/iksA-DD3990

When everyone is done reading what they find on Google, be sure to find out how to vote to legalize marijuana in your state so that this plant can be studied more for its medicinal potential.

Trey --- You have no idea how hard it has been for me to gain information - get advice I can trust - and obtain what I need. Ridiculous!

This is why I PROMISE to document in a thread what I had to do - supply line - my life during etc.

Right now I'm in So Lake Tahoe cruising with Gwen in her new super car (LOL) and feeling 100% healthy and I'm looking forward to doing stuff next year! I will give 100% credit to the RSO/CBD for getting me to this point.

Fascinating, truly hits home. My oldest is close to his doctorate in physcology and his professors want him to be a physchitrist, he has specialized in brain activity for the last 8 years. He said our bodies have natural hemp receptors in them and "some" people need the chemicals found in certain "weeds". Funny, being an adhd spaz growing up, I was a pothead for about 5 year, but hate the feeling of "stoned or drunk".....

It will be an interesting few years coming up as we find out how certain natural plants will be beneficial when managed properly....

P-car, hmmmm, good choice.

Greg, so good to see you this last weekend and such great news to continue to hear.....when you've got your health, you've got your wealth!! Definitely a balancing act.....Cheers, enjoy the trip (OF Life).....

Greg,
Newbie here trying to learn from you veterans... I'm up in SLT as well, let me know if you need any recommendations on restaurants, hikes, etc around Tahoe and I'll pass along my favorites.

Adam! Dang --- Ended up making a reservation at The Landing --- right! For the right DAY NEXT MONTH --- WTF -- So we stayed at Harrahs and did room service. We just woke up this AM pulled on pants and shoes and beat feet!!

I'm only couple hours from Sun Valley now - rolling at a HIGH rate of vibration up US 395.

Welcome to the boards!

Big money pharmaceutical companies can't turn a profit on the stuff. Beer wine and spirit manufacturers will fight to the death to keep some weird reefer madness stigma out there so recreational use doesn't cut their market share.

None of us will really know the whole truth in our lifetime of the benefits or lack of of using cannabis based treatments.

Who will pay for multiple studies to prove something so easy to cultivate and process actually provides the benefits of drugs costing billions to develop?

There are some published studies and in Israel, for one, many clinical trials do exist.

What is obvious to me is; as a treatment it provides quality of life. Greg is evidence of that. He's a little more goofy than surly these days but he is living life not feeling like **** while chemo and radiation kills his body in an attempt to fight the cancer.

None of us know what time we really have left so the most important thing is to make the best of the time we are here.
