Remember the angel trumphet I was worried about
"NMR" wrote in message .. . this is what it does to humans http://www.local6.com/news/6269732/detail.html Yes, it's beautiful but highly toxic. Along these same lines, I refuse to have an oleander in my yard. Again, they are gorgeous when in bloom, but they are so toxic that any part of the plant can kill. There are other beautiful plants that are not so dangerous -- so I just enjoy plants like this "at a distance." I do not want to take *any* chances that I could be the cause of sickness or even death (two-legged or four-legged). MaryL |

This is why the gov't should distribute free marijuana in public schools. It would eliminate the need for kids to brew poisonous tea in an effort to get high. Other legal trips: Salvia divinorum -- a mexican plant that can be smoked like pot, it causes terrifying, full-blown hallucinations and is seldom used more than once. Morning glory seeds -- first you puke, then you puke some more. After a couple of hours you get light-headed like the first stages of an acid trip. Then you get a headache and feel lethargic for a day or two. Nutmeg -- smoked or eaten, it delivers a buzz not too unlike that of marijuana, for about half an hour. Then a splitting headache sets in and lasts for about 6 hours. Dextromethorphan -- enthusiasts take about 12 times the dose on the label and experience a toxic delirium that involves disorientation and impaired vision. Charlie |

I must have been about five years old --maybe seven - my Dad had two oleander plants planted in half barrels and placed in our back yard. My Mother warned me NEVER to smell the flowers because they were poison. So doing what kids do, I smelled the flowers. Nothing happened but they got rid of the plants. Thanks for the memory. MLB |

Someone has to bear the cost of fancy medical care, and it damn sure isn't the tea-quaffing pinheads who end up needing it. The MDs are fitting that kid out for a pacemaker while some old grannie waits at the back of the line. I ask you as a fellow citizen, is that justice??? Charlie |
