We all have random and damn interesting high/sober thoughts all the time. It could be something you learned about in class today and you feel others would find it interesting also, or something you know that most people don't. The point is to just have fun!
:siren:The one and only rule I ask of you guys (and girls?) is that it is an actual [b]Fact[/b]. If you don't know if it's true, google helps a lot.:siren:

[quote]The light hitting the earth right now is 30 thousand years old. The energy in the sunlight we see today started out in the core of the Sun 30,000 years ago – it spent most of this time passing through the dense atoms that make the sun and just 8 minutes to reach us once it had left the Sun! The temperature at the core of the sun is 13,600,000 kelvins. All of the energy produced by fusion in the core must travel through many successive layers to the solar photosphere before it escapes into space as sunlight or kinetic energy of particles.[/quote]

But seriously, you can get court marshaled for getting caught with an external hard drive, usb, etc in the US military now, due to all the wiki leaks, how lame is that.
ALSO, the DEA is in Afghanistan right now, I didn't know that until i seen this video the other day.
Haha, that one guy is on the move! Everybody else is behind cover.
Yeah, that poor guy had to do the running there it seemed. I've never seen a grenade launcher like he had though, was pretty weird. Also, they say 'ANA' hit in the head but he's okay and can walk. Lucky bastard (ANA is Afghan National Army.)
He didn't seem like he minded. The guy sounds like he's a higher rank than most of them. Nice, Afghan National Army. I never knew that, thanks :).
And did you notice the german shepherd along the wall with them? It's just chillin while all the shooting is going on.
get ready...
there are more molecules in a single glass of water than there are grains of sand in the sahara
thats a lot of molecules!
Very mind blowing fact indeed, but isn't that something you learn in elementary school? :v:

The reason you get the munchies when you're blazed is because THC has a similar chemical structure to the hormone your stomach produces when its empty, i.e. when you're hungry.
I find sativa doesn't make me hungry.

I thought it was because it lowered blood sugar
I find no weed makes me hungry. I've never gotten the munchies from anything I've ever smoked.
Today, I learned that a pussy can be an inny or an outie and then continued to learn that some guys have a preference.

I thought it rather suppressed a hormone that inhibited appetite, I.e. tells you when you're full or not hungry anymore. Anyway, same thing really.

Semi-outie. A little bit out, mostly in though, I don't want to fuck a jellyfish.

I don't know why anyone would prefer one that looks like it's (literally) falling apart. Porn stars come to mind when thinking about outie's.

I thought it was cause it speeds up your metabolism, actually i'm pretty sure thats the reason.

cat urine glows in blacklights

Doesn't all urine glow in blacklight? I mean it's generally all bodily fluids (different colours), blacklights are often used to show how fucking disgusting a room or even your bed is.
I remember watching a tv program sometime when they went into a public toilet and managed to find urine on the ceiling and it was pretty damn high, I mean how the fuck do you even piss like 8ft in the air?!
That's some hose, I bet if that guy finishes in some poor girl he'd rupture internal organs.

Nah.. it's because it attaches to the same receptor as the endocannabinoids in a mother's breast milk which stimulate well.. the appetite!
(Why breast milk is the best for a babe and why my wife will be eating pot brownies if I ever have a nipper, I doubt she'll complain!)
the THC is absorbed into your system which adds to your existing endobinnoiiids = Hungry.
[quote]Emerging data suggests that THC acts via CB1 receptors on hypothalamic nuclei, thus directly increasing appetite. It is thought that hypothalamic neurons tonically produce endocannabinoids that work to tightly regulate hunger. The amount of endocannabinoids produced is inversely correlated with the amount of leptin in the blood. For example, mice without leptin not only become massively obese but have higher-than-normal levels of hypothalamic endocannabinoids[/quote]
[quote]The endocannabinoid system refers to a group of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors that are involved in a variety of physiological processes including appetite, pain-sensation, mood, and memory. It is named for endocannabinoids, the endogenous lipids that bind cannabinoid receptors (the same receptors that mediate the psychoactive effects of cannabis).[/quote]
Basically all the effects of Cannabis is because you're creating a huge chemical imbalance in this system, the CB receptors fire off and create the short term effects and then the THC stays in your system topping up the pre-existing cannabinoids.
Tolerance buildup, is because you never fully flush the THC out of your system if you smoke regularly.
Say you've got a litre container, you fill it up all the way and everytime you empty it you leave a little bit in there until next time you come to fill it.. it's already half full.
You can only pour half a litre in there, get me?

Nope. What you described there is a form of tolerance called Dynamic tolerance.
I'm almost certain that THC tolerance is dispositional. Meaning, it's due to changes in the body that changes the way your body processes the chemical.
THC tolerance isn't a very well scientifically investigated area, but basically, the more THC that uses the receptors, the more tired out/worn down they become. The general consensus was that the receptors didn't function properly without exposure to that particular chemical (Which is why nobody really understands why tolerance and dependency aren't linked with cannabis.) so the body would normally become dependant on the drug.
I read in a Neurology paper by Angelica Oveido (Or something) that cannabinoid tolerance involves "down-regulation" in which the body adjusts to chronic exposure to a drug by reducing the number of receptor sites available for binding.
But like I said, cannabis tolerance is a relatively unresearched field in science.
there's billions of people in the world, there must be someone who hass went through what you're going through.

there are more molecules in a single glass of water than there are grains of sand in the sahara[/QUOTE]
Wait, no there isn't.
The area Sahara is ~9x10^12 m²
The volume of a grain of quartz sand with a diameter of 0.060 mm is 1.13x10^-13 m^3
The depth of the sand in the Sahara is ~100m
Therefore, the volume of sand in the Saraha is ~9x10^14 m^3
So, the number of grains of sand in the Sahara would be V(Sahara)/V(Grain of Sand) = 9x10^14/1.13x10^-13 m^3
= 8.0x10^27
(I got all that data from [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahara_Desert_%28ecoregion%29"]here[/URL])
Now, the number of water molecules in a pint of water can be approximated like so:
1 pint of water weighs 20 fluid ounces (By definition) which is 0.568kg, so let's say ~600g
Now, to find the moles of H2O in a pint you use the equation Moles = Mass/Molecular Mass
The molecular mass of H2O is 18 (Oxygen = 16, Hydrogen = 1)
So, mol = 600/18
=33.33
To find out the number of molecules from moles, you use avogadro's constant which is the number of molecules in a single mole. This number is 6.02x10^23
And, (6.02x10^23)x33.33 =2.01x10^25
To sum up, number of molecules in a glass of water = 2.01x10^25
And the number of grains of sand in the Sahara = 8x10^27
So there's more sand in the Sahara than there are molecules in a glass of water.
