WOW!!  Pinch yourself! 
Let the Growing begin!  Mind, Body, spirit  & Plants!
I woke up and celebrated even before out of bed - I said: Thank You!

Thank you God Canada is NOW legal for recreational cannabis use, and the lines to purchase are proof it's long been overdue!  I thought I'd paint a Canadian image' I have sketched - I became overwhelmed thinking about EVERYONE who has helped in the education of cannabis  and the many ways they did!  I'm especially grateful to those who battled in court (it must be exhausting)  but when you know you are right you should fight!  Thanks to ALL who stayed strong and firm with their decision & justification of cannabis use to family & friends, that might have ended relationships due to simple ignorance.  NOW many will learn it's  not the horror stories you've read about, pay attention to wording'.  
I thought too of those who have already passed and used cannabis as their medicine and not here to witness this awesome history today, adults & children.  

Today is a day to rejoice - then I realized many people will still have to wait a few days - all purchases with Ontario cannabis stores  arrive in the mail  BUT  *Oh, I seriously laughed out loud when Alexa informed: Canada Post might go on strike - GO figure.  
I smoked the normal amount today... it is just another day.  
A day with slightly more freedoms and LESS judgement,  this is Gods medicine.  
Let thy food be thy medicine -  you can eat cannabis!  TRY - IT's LEGAL!  Give thanks!  Thank you Justin Trudeau - promise kept -  I KNEW you would!!
In my lifetime...   hee hee hee.

I can't remember the last time I felt this peaceful, relieved, confident & 'Happy' on too many levels today! My evening is not over..  I'll relax this evening with a joint while watching a movie or two joints even - & I won't have a hang over tomorrow!  
No fear mongering allowed!  

                       Be responsible, be nice... be Canadian - what's changed?

Nothing except the wording.  

PLEASE never drive when ever you are impaired or distracted by anything  (especially cell phones), there are already drivers on the road who are not 'great drivers" without any substance!

 IF you are 'that' worried about cannabis & your children -  there is no better day that today to have the conversation - chances are it's been discussed on many a playground.  
Kids are smarter than we give them credit for most times- tell the TRUTH - not sure  Go to the Canadian Government site...   smoke a joint. Know the facts. 

Now put on some Tragically Hip! It's been one year  -since Gord Downie left us - lets Celebrate him all over again - I've no doubts he would be happy about today, Eh!

With TLC & THC!! LEGAL - recreational THC!

* is this not the same as extortion at this point, is it just me?  Talk about timing.
 Just chilling with my girls on this chilly history changing afternoon...    Amen.
Finished painting of Ginger in the garden 2 will be up loaded- when finished! lol 

Ask anyone what my "crack" addiction is - Maple Syrup!!  Canadian - of course.
I'm like the cops in Super Trooper - often I can be seen taking a swig directly from the jug,  always in my fridge -Maple Syrup!  I love it! In my coffee, on pancakes, swimming with strawberries, frozen on a stick - Maple Syrup is my favourite sweetest thing on the planet...
then comes Cannabis!   
Healing my mind, body  & soul!  

When Storm & I attended out first protest years ago we met a young man - he caught my attention because he had a little plant - in a little Maple Syrup can.  I said Hello - we introduced ourselves and he later said 'hi' to Storm - before the Protest ended - he gifted Storm his  cannabis plant.   That young man is now working for one of the biggest in the Industry & I couldn't be happier for him - it's because of him & a few others - Tweed is the one Big Companies who'll be providing cannabis.  No longer just 'medical'  - why should they be? The times they are a changing!!   

Big business is big business to think it wasn't going to happen in the Cannabis industry is to fool oneself.  So - as far as Big business goes- I guess Tweed is the one company I like so far - I like the 'Canadian' feel to them- the people, Snoop too. 

At this point  I'm celebrating legalization  in ALL ways, - I don't care who is doing it  because - Canada is doing it! That's all that matters at the moment.  Adios - Stigma!  I'm thrilled to see many we've met the past 10 years succeed, they should- they are wonderful, caring,  compassionate people... they deserve to be where they are because they have worked for it.     I'm also incredibly fond & proud of my son & who he works  with - of course.  Above all I am thrilled & excited cannabis is going to be legal in Canada and people will have safe, professional options to purchase!!

This represents the best of Canada right here for moi! 
Cannabis & Maple syrup!  OH Canada!! How many days......  about 46 & counting Down!
Not long now- got your bong ready?

 My friend Russ knows I  like Justin Trudeau & he knows more than most that I REALLY liked his dad, so he sent me this book: Just Watch Me - Remembering Pierre Trudeau

I enjoyed the book mostly due to the images of  Pierre Trudeau - ones I'd never seen, diving into a pool, joking with the queen, a big winking grin on the back cover, I was reminded of what a true rockstar he was - IF NOT for him I wonder where gay Rights would be or legal abortion in Canada. Pierre was ahead of his time - thankfully of us.  My grandma loved him! I remember every time I visited - she was telling about Trudeau - his antics, his wife, his life  & she loved every thing he said  & did, including telling someone to 'Fuck off' and give 'the finger - he was the real deal.  

Talk about SEXY, he was confident, powerful & funny - that's obvious - something tells me he was very playful as well - no wonder he was surrounded & loved by women of every sort/shape/color/class. I still look at his images and find myself playfully smiling back.  
He was also admitted by many men.

I can't image being his wife - the pressure/duties/demands it must have been incredibly difficult at times. I was disappointed with the book-  very little about the marriage and with a negative undertone (as if he actually KNEW what was happening behind closed doors- phhhhbt) for  Maggie Trudeau  (a smart ass photo of her -imo) as well as all the women in general- mere images to be seen at the end of a mans arm, rarely being seen for the intellectual individual women they were.

I'm sure it was very relevant in it's time - dropping names-  but  I count help get that 'Old, boy feel reading this book and was happy to put it down. Incredibly sexist and narrow minded when it comes to women in general - was it the times 70's & 8o's - perhaps...
I can't imagine the life Justin had... his father was intelligent, serious, driven - a brown belt, educated  and a Canadian thru & thru - all great from the outside looking in but we all know life is not as it appears.
You know that  terrific balancing pose Justin does- his dad did it too.   
​Like Father like Son.
Thankfully.

Justin Trudeau is running 2019 and winning again!  I couldn't be happier, it was just a given already in  my mind. AMEN  I absolutely think he is the greatest Prime Minister since Trudeau!! LOL  Only the new & improved version, one who also has learned to control his emotions better- but still not afraid to express them.  I believe above all he is a wonderful father,  compassionate teacher,  proud Canadian,  educated representative, dedicated husband....  He is  a Rockstar in his own rights & I look forward to watching Canada continue to thrive with him  representing  US. Oh- and there is that little cannabis thing... 

I've been distracted the past few days- with fall cleaning- lol..

This was something I painted one day a I meditated on life..

I am for abortion.  I am for life.
When does life begin? 
https://www.wired.com/2015/10/science-cant-say-babys-life-begins/

Babies in cages and sent to prisons- without their parents- the USA has never looked so UGLY, the Assholes wife- wore a jacket- when I first saw it i thought it was photoshopped, when I read it was not - if I've ever defended that cunt as 'a woman in an unfortunate circumstance',  I take it back.  Just when you think they can't get any LOWER they do.
Now the presidential pig is changing his mind' due to back lash..  Sessions using GOD" to make sure AMERICANs keep in line - the bible tells you to respect your government - all who listen to that crap ASK yourself- IF you believe:  What would JESUS DO?   

Today I saw a 'beautiful American blonde"  who posted on FB she thinks "they should all  be shot at the border"  to save money & time.  I think I know who should be shot first. I saw a hateful post on IG.. she: hates Canadians, hates Trump and hates  Americans who are not patriotic - (an American herself) I looked at her IG page out of curiosity- I 'saw' a beautiful black woman, dressed  nice, appeared professional, smart- but her comments were nothing but UGLY & bitter and so did she become this after you read all the nasty things she says on line.  Beauty really is ONLY skin deep.

I 'get it', if you let people come - they will.  Well, if American stopped raging wars and bombing other countries for their own personal greed - Foreigners  probably would stay where they 'belong' in the first place, belong in their own culture, thriving, happy,  in a lovely country with sunshine, family & friends.  The USA has destroyed them. Look at the images below & tell me would you stay?

I would be doing everything in my power as a mother to get my child to a better life & opportunity. So would every American mother - I'd hope.   Yes, I get some criminals try to get into the country too & this must be recognized  but there is NO excuse at all for abusing children (infants & babies)  & treating them as if they were animals, Infants even. Doesn't American understand the pain they are causing on a grand scale will only bring more pain to them?  

So when does life start?  Perhaps if we really thought about it - took it seriously and decided it start at conception - I just learned something & found it bothered me - with in vitro fertilization they sometimes 'smack' the sperm agains the glass to 'kill it' first so they can inject it easier...  so, a dead sperm can make a live baby - what kind of a start is that to life?
What if the sperm feels - it is ALIVE after all.  How much do we understand? 
We are all so busy children are being abused constantly by babysitters, caregivers, forgotten in hot cars to die, stolen, used as pawns in relationships, sexually abused (some now born for this reason- that is the most fucked up thing I have ever read)  little babies beaten, treated like objects.  

I think babies should be considered babies at conception - perhaps then some might think carefully before they bring the little being into the world. Children do not ask to be here - we do that.... If a baby is NOT wanted - I do hope they are aborted - rather than brought into a life of abuse.   Anyhow this thing with kids being put in cages and separated from parents- has me feeling  worse about humanity.   I need a serious detox. 

Yesterday was also  marked 117 days to legalization.  
Wait until you see some of my new art, I'm taking it to a new HIGH.
I also have a new camera set up & am making some videos in hopes it will inspire some & teach them how to paint.  
​More tomorrow.

I've recently discovered this Japanese artist on Twitter..
Go here:
https://twitter.com/avogado6   
His work displays how many of us feel at times during our lives & it's not always enjoyable these are some powerful images.  

It has inspired me to work on some drawings of my own.
It's a way to deal with the issues and educate - doing what I do best.... drawing.
Painting can also be part of a specific healing process, I'm not sure about other artists but once it's OUT on paper it's out of my mind and life goes on.. I guess a drawing purge of sorts.  I drew countless images over the years afraid to show them- not realizing how many  would actually 'relate to my drawings.  We are not so different.
Maybe that reason alone is helpful for those who can't put into words what they are experiencing. 

Viewers be warned. It won't be your usual bear, sloth work.
Tomorrows painting is titled:                   Dear Anthony,  I get it.


Ending on positive note.. my son visited yesterday (with Burger priest for lunch) to do laundry and an oil change, it was nice to just sit in the driveway while he worked, the girls on the front lawn as we all listened to city adventures.  I can hear the appreciation for the best of both worlds Storm has at the moment.  Daisy was thrilled and laid more of a guilt trip on him when he was getting ready to leave that I do! LOL   It's good to be loved.

It's:   "Dopey!"    Hee Hee  -  The best of the dwarfs! Singing:
***Now... you should sing this in high pitch for best effects... Ready?***
                        High Hooo...
                              High Ho High Ho
                                           It's off to work we Grow!

It won't be long NOW Canada, garden shovels ready? 
I'm excited for the plant - for the garden, for the humming birds! They love cannabis.
& it won't be long now - with experience - comes education, with education comes realization. Realization that cannabis is far less harmful than other recreational substances.

I flipped through the Sun on the weekend  (Norm still wants to read it) and read a few stories regarding cannabis, 'the global marijuana march' had just taken place - I forgot.
I have no desire to attend these events. These events bring out all sorts for all reasons- mostly to PARTY.  Some are enjoying more than JUST cannabis - not my business-  I also don't like how parks & nature are taken over and left in  the condition they usually are.

Cannabis/Marijuana is always in the news lately and most of it I'm already aware.. Storm saw me reading something last week from CBC and said "really, what there don't you know already?."  He was correct - I was wasting my time. I do not believe when we are legal soon - that you will get arrested for smoking a joint on the street,  even police will have difficulties such as 'smell complaints' - good luck with that. Do you know some chemical in the printing industry has just been proven to cause leukaemia in people who work with it - a court case was won (in Canada) for the worker- but the story ended with stating it's still used in numerous ways and countless people work with it. WTF?  This especially upset me as I know people who have worked in the printing industry- several.  Family & friends both worked at one time for the Star... and used printing plates which they mention. 
I am beyond tired hearing this bullshit about cannabis.
I KNOW. 10 years now and Storm was 14 when he started - THANK GOD!
  
Canadian as a whole are becoming more educated about cananbis on all levels. Starting in our grade schools, apparently...  who is going to continue to go along with such bullshit when they understand cigarettes kill- cannabis does not. Alcohol kills countless.. opiates & tide pods...   RESEARCH it, if you do not believe me.  What judge will even tolerate it in court when it's a fact- Children in Canada are being sexually abused & human trafficking  (I'm not sure the pre-tense) is increasing.  Children!  If you don't think it's happening, you don't want to know. With 'drugs' out of the way focus & resources can be directed  on what matters 'people'.   I feel we will let past offences for cannabis drop - people will finally get out of jail that should NOT be there. People will not go to jail for cananbis in Canada in the future- and not for walking down the street smoking a joint. Unless your doing other stuff you shouldn't.

Justin Trudeau does not say too much on cannabis 'itself' I've noticed- because he knows the truth, he has consumed. So what. I hope he does - what a stressful job, judged for absolutely everything from your socks to your handshake.   Thank God he is compassionate and educated and a gentleman.

I wish DONALD with sit back and have a joint or two dozen... it won't kill him- let him just CHILL for a while and perhaps have an enlightened moment - GUNS kill Americans FIRST.
Anyhow- I can't wait! It's got me hopeful and happy, I also know more children dealing with serious health issues will be helped. Childhood arthritis? Try cannabis first - it is not proven to damage little organs like other medications. As a matter of fact- research seems to showing it's HELPING.

Will someone gt hurt when legalization is here - Probably- Stupid people do stupid things and sometimes - Accidents do happen. I'm more concerned UN-knowledgable  people will mix' and just like you shouldn't mix your BOOZE don't mix your booze with your buds- until you know how to handle them.

My knock knock joke was a bit of a stretch - hee hee...  I am not afraid to try!  ;)

P.S.  I have too much to do... taking off for a few!

Turn off the lights so you can see the stars shine!  It's 'dark week' and the idea is your turn off the lights in the evening so we can all see the stars more clearly!! It also helps with bird migration - although  birds still fly into  buildings for several reasons - city lights only confuse birds,  it's one if the reasons those giant lights were banned - like that light to search for batman - remember them?  I live outside of the city in the suburbs so I do see the stars a little brighter most nights especially  in the summer... I can walk to a field and they seem even brighter - if you have the opportunity to travel up north with even less humans the nigh sky is even more spectacular.   Who better to see it than a Chimp in space. Have you seen Rocket man? It's a good movie to watch with kids...  Harland & I went to Sheridan at the same time - he is a funny man.

I was watching Gaia yesterday  I really like Regina Meredith - if I could choose my woman friends- she would be one - I watched an old episode yesterday and I bet this guy is feeling mighty good about his little Facebook clip he made- it has turned out to become 100% accurate. Watch and see.  Jon   ​ on Secret SocietiesOpen Minds  from an episode in 2012.
Gaia is my favourite to listen & watch  as I paint.

Did I get you thinking about women being C*nts yesterday- good- because the truth is- some of these women - you should be most grateful for  - they teach us the best. I'm serious, 
and the things is.. I think these women have become Supreme bitches (meant in a positive light ) for a reason...  Experience.  There is a fantastic show on netflix - I highly recommend for women in particular- although Storm has found it equally as fascinating:  

                         The Ascent of Woman.         What an eye opener..
​
Many women in history portrayed as evil witches & bitches were no more than excuses to exterminate and degrade the other 1/2 of the planet. Do you know 80% of the witch trials- were women- legal ways to murder women, they even wrote a pamphlet to help easily expose such vial women.  Who was usually the first to hang? Outspoken, smart and  courageous women- healers- women who could help with herbs - teachers, educators... let's not forget if a husband wanted a new wife-  all he has to do was inform others  his wife was a witch, problem solved.

The thing is, I have young women friends- and they need to understand the struggles they have - I've had and continue to do so, struggles with others opinions, jealousy & competitiveness - even if YOU are not competitive- most others are.. this  'We all should get along'- is BULLSHIT-  it's just not how it is... we are not here to all get along - we are all here to teach each other.
​
Not everyone is going to like us- the sooner we understand and accept the sooner you learn to say: Phhhhhhhbt.   If everyone liked me - life would be  boring...  Do I 'hate' any of these women - no.  I admire them in the sense they keep going after what they want - an usually succeed.  Many display traits men have and are admired for, look into every 'nasty' woman and theres a bit of a story on how she became that way.. there are far more - staggering differences between the amounts  alone of 'evil men compared to 'evil women.  I know a few women I consider 'Tuff'  - C*nts even..  they come by it honestly & have some of my respect - even if I do not "like them".    

Facebook already makes it appear - life is 'honkey dorey'- only share the good.. all appear to play nicely - it's just an act. We don't - it's not real life - so learn... BE real with your kids- teach them about the good the bad and the ugly-  Ugly on the inside - I see no "Ugly' humans" only ugly intentions.  Each time I feel I've been HURT' - it's an opportunity to think, reflect and decide - how will I react? Make no mistakes- why let people away with crap, if you do they have a tendency to repeat- if your going to treat me poorly I will give the 'Heads up' to others-   I heard  a podcast -a woman shared - another woman said to her "I'd stay away from him if i were you" but the one woman thought the other was just being a jealous bitch and ignored the warning- only to be brutally raped by the person the other had warned about..   We have to listen to each other - even if we don't like each other.
We should protect each other- even IF we don't "like" each other.  
I share in hopes some might be educated- not feel so alone and  might even avoid some of the same  not so pleasant life experiences.
I'm not proud of my first reactions in many cases - but I am proud- in time - once I have time to think and process - I usually conclude  - how can we hate anyone who is just trying to do the best they think they can?  How can I hate anyone I don't KNOW.  
I can't.

Thank them! Thank them for the lesson- You know who you are- you beautiful bitches-  Calculating C*nts!...  lol    Thank you!
You teach me who I do not want to be and what I would like to aspire to instead, you are some of my greatest teachers.

Still cold, ice & snow.. good day to paint!

How is this NOT a hate crime?   How is cannabis responsible? 
Read this and tell me what your conclusions are..  it does not take long for anyone to figure out WHY this GUY is not being punished   & won't have a record.
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-lawyer-mark-phillips-pleads-guilty-in-st-thomas-ont-baseball-bat/
​
ASK yourself:
Did he run up to a white family in a parking lot & start hitting them with bats? 
Did he  scream at the family to stop speaking English?
Did he yell racial slurs that most people would not consider ever stating to strangers regardless of their thoughts?  & he's done  it before...

It is a mental illness problem for sure - but to blame it solely on cannabis is absurd. 
It was just an EXCUSE. Cannabis is a scape goat. He lost it..  (obviously)  
Road &  immigrant  hate- rage. My mom once gave a driver the finger who cut us off.. he too  followed us and when we stopped, he got out of his truck and started walking at us with  bat! I can tell you the fear that came over my mom and I instantly - was insane.  We never forgot.   Imagine HOW those people felt  & still do - now that the judge blamed it on cannabis and NOT a NASTY HUMANS ACTIONS.
Might he be free because he is a lawyer - who's also the great-grandson of Nathan Phillips... this is the first case like this of it's kind where the judge ruled it was due to a 'cannabis induced psychosis'.    Bullshit.  

Lawyers have a lot of stress.. I get it.  Still he lost control and physically  hit a stranger with a bat!  I can't help but wonder - had this been a average black man (Yep- I'm saying it)  who attacked a white family with a bat - cannabis or none - he'd be in &  going to JAIL. 
Yikes- I wonder if he's married.. I wonder what his temper is like when not out in public hitting people with bats?  Do you think he's calm and never losing control.... right.
​I'm sure his family is aware of his condition  - long before cannabis. To have the anger he did - I feel pity for him. I get angry-  I can even throw stuff from time to time  but YOU don't pick up a Baseball Bat and beat up others...  unless YOU are mentally, hatefull & ill.. with or with out cannabis. 

​I have had thoughts of wanting someones leg broken with a bat :(   Really. I think of him (only when I have to drive by his business) -  an adult (hearing professional) who lied to and took advantage of Storm with of all things - his hearing aids. I've blogged about it in the past.. it still hurts me - because I thought to myself (first time)  Storm is old enough - I'll let him deal with this guy on his own..  and HE TOOK advantage of him and sold our deaf son - A (one) hearing aid and insurance for only one fucking ear.   ?   Storm has worn 2 hearing aids since diagnosed a 4 with sever hearing loss.  He can't hear without them.
 Who only  insures one hearing aid? .. oh, but we could insure both for an ADDED fee.   I saved the papers - I can still prove it.  So .. there was a reason-  lol -  a pissed off mom and I own a bat- Did I drive over and take a few wacks? No.  
Now that I know (according to this judge)  if I had smoked a few joints before hand - I might have gotten away with it- it might have changed my perspective.   I am being sarcastic.  

He mislead Storm (called him "Stupid") when I confronted him and he verbally abused me- terribly.  I couldn't figure out how he did it - with others in the office at the time- HE was YELLING and threatening me at the top of his lungs'- until I spoke with another  hearing specialist who said - "he phoned you from the sound proof booth..."   wow, what kind of sick F*ck uses his sound proof booth to call and intimate  others. I know one.   I'd bet I was not the first or the last.   He knows and I know... God knows.  

No, I did not resort to violence but I do share the story with everyone I know and  people  pay attention...  If you need new hearing aids-  'Upper Canada Hearing'  in Newmarket is where to go - who has been helping Storm since he was a toddler - why we ever went to the other was a mistake - close to home cost us big time $ and mentally.
Karma  not a bat will take care of him,  when I realized this- it was easy to let it go.  
But I did think of it... many of US 'think of it' at one time or another in our lives- especially if  you mess with our children.  Do we do it?  No.. Never.   Cannabis or not.
He smoked  3 joints i think I read- so obviously  it's not his first experience with cannabis either.   B U L L S H I T .

Do you know how Karma works - everyone will look at him NOW & know what he is really capable of, the hatred he clearly has inside...  who wants this guy for a lawyer?   Phhhbt.   

Please think rationally about this for a moment..  
​How long has cananbis been around? - A really LONG time- it's been found in mummy tombs- it's said to be an ingredient in Jesus's healing ointment 
How many people smoke cannabis .. then and now?  LOTS! Just wait till legalization..
​How many times have we heard of someone 'high'  who attacks people with bats?  
NONE, this is the first 'person' ever.   

So are we to understand that if he had not smoked cannabis  he would never have had such racial slurs? Not think such thoughts? Why did he have a bat in his car? Does he play baseball?   I doubt it. 
This judge has set precedent with this case.
It only adds to the confusion of canabis coming to Canada and it is not o.k..
​Why is Justin watching this and allowing it to happen?  That bothers me.
That hurts.   

Canadians  should be upset- what a message to send to others...  it's o.k if a stranger beats you with a bat - in front of your family - because you are not white and do not speak a language they like- BUT as long as they smoked a joint- they'll get away with it.

What a joke- no one is laughing. 
If some want to blame the cannabis - so be it.. it will be their mistake.
Nasty people do nasty things -  you can  blame drugs for his obvious  hate crime..  or you can see it for what it is..  an excuse   &  fear mongering as we head into legalization.

More on cannabis next..  
I'm going to bombard the world with POSITIVE, lovely  cannabis ART!
 

For some reason this guy reminds me of Dan Bilzerian who has now joined the cananbis business down in the USA.  I don't know what to think about him...   I have checked him out- hard not to ladies he is  'manly handsome',  he  sends  mixed emotions every time I see him in an interview.
For some reason I feel sadness everytime I hear him speak.   Look at him, look at his life, his  STUFF, women (which he treats like objects - ladies...  your call) his money, lifestyle- many desire it...  still he seems incredibly sad to me.  I can't help but think he is struggling - although he sure doesn't look it.

Everyone thinks its great to be so rich, so 'wanted' - will this guy ever know if someone wants him or simply his money. Women want men just for their money - men want women just for their bodies... who needs it, because for the women  as in most cases we see in history - most of the time the men realize this  & eventually and it ends badly. Any woman who thinks this guy will settle down and become a family man is fooling themselves, perhaps for a couple of years.  Who wants this?
I guess some women do in hopes of when they eventually split - they will get a nice payout..   money.  The more you have the less assured you can be about those around you.  
You get what you pay for.  Dan has a 'serious girlfriend'  according to social media, good...
I hope he experiences some true love. 

If I was loaded & looking for love... I'd dress down, drive a beaten up car, would rent out a modest apartment  until I felt the person interested in me & my dogs & bird...- was just interested in me.  'If.    lol     I don't have to worry, I'm not loaded or looking for love.  
Thankful I don't have to fake it for funds.

I think Dan is a poor example for young men, his careless attitude towards women glorifies a serious problem already being encountered by too many - men & women are no more than OBJECTS to be used and toss aside when you have $$$.  
Bought & sold.. just not so obvious.  
Sexual Slavery.  
Some put chains on themselves for the fame & stuff & don't even realize it.

It's fascinating when 'old guys' realize  the hottie 20 - 30 years younger - are NOT really into them - it's not "love"  by gold diggers.  No one else is shocked.
You got what you paid for. I don't necessarily blame gold diggers'  
All is fair in love & war - isn't that what they say?

By the way are you aware of this scam:
