Paul McCartney stops smoking pot
Just saw this on a news site.
Sir Paul McCartney has said "enough's enough" and has finally given up smoking cannabis. The star has been an unashamed dope smoker since the 1960s, leading to him being arrested on occasion and in 1980 he was deported from Japan. But now the multimillionaire musician - who turns 70 this summer - said being a parent again played a part in his decision to quit. Sir Paul's regular cannabis consumption was flagged up by second wife Heather Mills during their divorce battle. The couple have an eight-year-old daughter Beatrice from their relationship. In a new interview with Rolling Stone magazine, he said of his dope use: "I did a lot, and it was enough. "I smoked my share. When you're bringing up a youngster, your sense of responsibility does kick in, if you're lucky, at some point. He added: "Enough's enough - you just don't seem to think it's necessary." The Beatles were introduced to cannabis by Bob Dylan in August 1964. |

He pisses me off. Hardcore puffer, raised how many kids while high, even used to stash his weed in kids clothes while touring (after the Japan fiasco). The song, "Got to get you into my life" was about weed, not a woman.
NOW he decides he need to stop for his kid? Nice kick in the head for all the kids he wasn't concerned about being high for, and a really lame excuse for dropping it now. I've been high all my life, a little younger than him, and I've got kids too - but being a toker has helped me be a good parent, and it has helped me be a better spouse, lover and human being too. Gotta say it - Fuck you, Paul. Ironically, I've lost respect for you becoming a non-stoner.

sounds like me whenever my tolerance goes up...3 weeks later i'm pokin one hitters again...i don't think he did any harm stepping out, and i'm sure he will be back, sooner than later, though it's not like it's a bad thing to stop smoking, to each their own, as long as they don't try to burn bridges to gain acceptance into the mainstream again...

this just in, waveguide stopped scratching his balls.
"aah, fuck it. let 'em itch, my hand's got better things to do than worry about some old fucker's balls". waveguide's balls became famous after playing congas on the 1963 hit "i'll give u a snog if u want it".

If it lets him spend more time with his daughter, who am I to criticize?

It's good to quit once in awhile. For me, anyway.
To each his own. At least he's candid about his use, unlike some of our Presidents. |
