It helps? I\'d tried CBD oil. I don\'t know what I expected but I noted
absolutely no effect. Might have been a coincidence but after a slightly
increased dose cleaned out my gastrointestinal tract I shelved it.

It helps him sleep. I\'m not sure what it does for pain.

He\'s tried CBD. One of the oils had the effect you reported.

turmeric which is supposed to be good for joints. I wouldn\'t swear one way

The other part of the equation is the habitat has a very small population.
Like a small town being a prick is not a long term plan. It\'s a long

Dueling might be a little extreme but I grew up in a tough, decaying mill
town. Being an asshole could have consequences. The internet is the worse
case; you can bark like a junkyard dog with no consequence. Why be
reasonably polite if nobody is going to physically kick you in the balls?

I\'m not sure it\'s not a chicken and egg scenario. In another post I
mentioned the sort of town I grew up in. People were generally polite but
there was the realization that if you were habitually abrasive you would
get your ass kicked sooner or later. That didn\'t mean there were
continuous brawls but the potential was there.

Of course you can overdo polite like 4 Swedes at a 4-way stop. \'No, you go
first, I insist\' ad infinitum. I have always been interested how a society
develops its standards of conduct. The Swedes are an exaggeration but why
are some societies polite and orderly where others are boorish? What
happens when you take a polite place like Minnesota and introduce a
population from a dog-eat-dog third world setting?

$100 worth of THC tincture lasts him months. Much cheaper than
some of the prescription stuff he takes. We end up in the Medicare
