The Marijuana baby epidemic


So i flip back from V-103 and 102.5 in the mornings. I don't care for the music I just want to hear the talk. The two stations are a mixture of laughter, politics, and serious issues/conversations (Gotta love that Strawberry Letter Steve Harvey!). Anyway a couple of days this week Frank Ski and Wanda (V-103) hit on the issue of youth verses marijuana smoking. I knew it was a widely accepted issue but honestly i didn't know it was such a detrimental thing never being a pot smoker myself. A mother called into the show hysterical because her twin sons were suffering from this big brown weed that was taking over the minds of her children. Now i know that rollin' a blunt may not harm everyone however i think this report is worth taking a look at. Also they played a Lil Wayne song from his new album, The Carter III about drug uses ups and then the "after the high" decline so low that you feel like, "Dying". Hmmmm. Pretty chilling. Any thoughts?

Depressed Teens Using Marijuana, Other Drugs to Relieve Symptoms:

Although marijuana use among teens has dropped by 25 percent since 2001, more teens use marijuana than all other illicit drugs combined. The new report, "Teen Marijuana Use Worsens Depression: An Analysis of Recent Data Shows 'Self-Medicating' Could Actually Make Things Worse," shows the following:

*Teens who smoke marijuana at least once a month are three times more likely to have suicidal thoughts than non-users;
*Using marijuana can cause depression and other mental illnesses;
*The percentage of depressed teens is equal to the percentage of depressed adults, but depressed teens are more likely than depressed adults to use marijuana and other illicit drugs;
*Teen girls who use marijuana daily are more likely to develop depression than girls who do not use marijuana;
*Depressed teens are also more likely than non-depressed teens to engage in other risky behaviors such as daily cigarette use and heavy alcohol use.

I am glad it's being talked about in the news and popular radio. Now go talk to your kids, and siblings please.

Score for Tony "Romeo" Romo!

Tom Brady (QB for the New England Patriots) is dating highest paid super model Gisele so I guess Tony Romo had to go one up on him and date a cuter star. Tony Romo, the QB for the Dallas Cowboys is dating blond singer turned reality dream turn nightmare reality Jessica Simpson. And I gotta tell you Jessica IS WAY cuter then that dog-on Giselle and with less make-up too. Come on people...yes she is a Vic Secret model and yes has a banging body BUT her mug....eeeeeh no.

Tony Romo likes girlies in the public spot light. He has also been linked to Carrie Underwood and Sophia Bush, both total babes! He seems to go for that super cute, innocent seeming type and then after he's done whatever he does he's out! However I have a feeling this thing with J. Simpson will last some time. Not only did she take him home for Thanksgiving to meet Papa Joe Simpson, but Jessica is not a fly by night celebrity and has a real resume so i think this may impress good ol Romeo Romo for a lil bit longer.

By the way...did you know that Scrubs star, Donald Faison (black dude from Clueless...."i mean like totally a barney DUH!") is dating Jessica Simpson's bff/personal assistant (the blond friend from the reality show) Cacee Cobb??? Hmmmmm!!!! Apparently the 4, Romo, Simpson, Faison and Cobb have hung out together. Cacee seems to like Romo for Jessie. I hope her friend knows what's really up. Shoot almost anything is better than leach Nick Lachey.

Good Luck!
