I cannot tell you how many attorneys I have worked for with substance abuse problems. Most of them were functioning alcoholics but there were a few pain pill addicts mixed in here and there. MS&W was FULL of day drinkers.

Bless you, Tony. It is amazing how it is the addicts that can learn to admit that they are and are very upfront with others of their problems. I've had an uncle that was an alcoholic. In the small town where he lived, there were a few folks that watched for where his vehicle was parked. If it was summer and the windows were up, they had to check to see if he was inside, and if he was, that had to roll down the windows.
I've also worked with some recovering addicts before and got to know some of them pretty good. Their stories are enough to scare the living daylights out of people. They are why I'm largely against recreational marijuana.

My first cousin who runs a live in rehab facility for heroin addicts, because she is one herself tried to pull that "I started with cannabis" crap.
Cannabis didn't have her stealing cars to get OPIATE prescriptions filled. She is delusional and so are you if you think cannabis hasn't been a staple of American life since the country was founded. The only problem is we let a bunch of profiteer businessmen cook up some hysteria that was largely profit and racially motivated, then perpetuate it for 70 years.
My cannabis company will not be initially starting with, but the 3rd year we convert all aeroponics tables to using aquaculture or aquaponic systems, then with the Tilapia bred in the system will go to feed armies of people who would otherwise go hungry. Fully closed loop system, infinitely renewable, zero federal and state subsidies (we will pay more taxes than every industry combined) and feeds people to boot.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
This is the case with me, also. The folks I know never partake outside their own home (well, except maybe in their backyard), never in front of their kids, and are some of the most successful people I know. While I have no personal knowledge, I'd be willing to bet they all showered and put on clean clothes before heading out to work this morning.
And ... ad nauseum ... again, someone's inability to control themselves should not be used as an excuse to limit my medical options. The need of some of you to control what others do, based on nothing more than your perception of what is right and wrong is astounding.
I say ban coffee! I know I wasted far more time going to the john than any of the folks that might have used something else the evening before. Wait, the coffee pot was provided and placed outside my office...I think I see an enhancement to my retirement coming...
Oh, NO! It won't go well for anyone if I can't get my morning joe. THAT'S the real addiction at my house. I can take or leave ANYTHING but I GOTTA have my coffee! That first sip washes over my soul every morning and ... well ... ahhhhhh ... sometimes I'll even have a dip in Nirvana in the evenings. With a little whiskey to top it off. It's like the difference in an ice cream cone and a hot fudge sundae! Haha!
Lol that old man with the drumstick is a HOOT!
