LOL, Harry I have Irish heritage. I can remember when Sparebedroom made

Reggie, today you have an "Irish heritage," and next month you'll have a
"Jewish heritage," and next summer you'll claim an "Italian heritage."
Why should I believe you have an "Irish heritage?" Because you say so?

Absurd.

You do know I could have all those ethnic backgrounds, and in the US, it

always enjoy a good laugh. What is really going on with you today?

Beautiful boat. But, I was thinking of ordering a print of GB 49 Classic
for Harry and the resolution is too low for anything but a wallet size. I'm
thinking he'd probably like about an 11" by 14" to frame and put over the
fireplace.

Think you could increase the resolution any?

Harry, would you post your address so I can mail it?

Would 'booze hound' be the equivalent? Or just, 'a drunk'?
--
John H

Maybe, but people like Bill use "pothead" to describe anyone who uses
pot.
"Booze hound" or "drunk" are more commonly used to describe someone
whose
use of alcohol has reached the point of habitual abuse. There are
people who
partake of marijuana at levels similar to someone who has a glass of
wine
once or twice a week. Nobody would call those people drunks, although
they
might GET a little drunk from that glass of wine under certain
conditions.

Oh. I didn't realize Bill was expanding the term 'pothead' to include
anyone who tries the stuff. I would put 'pothead' in the same category
as
'alcoholic'.

Oh, it gets even better. Bill has been proven to call someone a
"pothead" without ANY evidence of such. Hell, he doesn't even have to
have heresay to call someone a pothead!

I have no interest in buying a GB RV, especially an old one, so in some

"bourbon
head"
or "vodka head". It's always more than just a term learned by habit.
It's
a
belief based on who-knows-what.

Would 'booze hound' be the equivalent? Or just, 'a drunk'?

Maybe, but people like Bill use "pothead" to describe anyone who uses
pot.
"Booze hound" or "drunk" are more commonly used to describe someone
whose
use of alcohol has reached the point of habitual abuse. There are
people who
partake of marijuana at levels similar to someone who has a glass of
wine
once or twice a week. Nobody would call those people drunks, although
they
might GET a little drunk from that glass of wine under certain
conditions.

Oh. I didn't realize Bill was expanding the term 'pothead' to include
anyone who tries the stuff. I would put 'pothead' in the same category
as
'alcoholic'.

Oh, it gets even better. Bill has been proven to call someone a
"pothead" without ANY evidence of such. Hell, he doesn't even have to
have heresay to call someone a pothead!

hearsay

Not hearsay or heresay, but a posting in one of his incarnations of
newsgroup posting.- Hide quoted text -

If in your stupid mind, it's not hearsay, then it must be proof????

True, I'd have to agree with that. Why, are you a pothead, too?

dangerous than booze.

You do seem to attach a certain stigma or evil to pot, though,
which is
silly, since it's really no worse for the body than booze,
assuming
both
are abused to a certain level. And, it's pretty rare that
people
steal
to
get money for pot.

I sort of dropped out of this discussion, which I initiated. How
did it
devolve into an argument about pot?

I steered it off a cliff after billy bob said "Better than a
pothead".
Since
I love words, I see "pothead" and wonder why people never say
"bourbon

or "vodka head". It's always more than just a term learned by
