Drugs are fun

I found some unintentionally funny quotes in my Forensics text tonight and thought I'd share:

On Marijuana: "...initial restlessness and hilarity followed by a dreamy, carefree state of relaxation; alteration of sensory perceptions including expansion of space and time; and a more vivid sense of touch, sight, smell, taste and sound; a feeling of hunger, especially a craving for sweets..."

Ok, how can you read that and not want to smoke? This part comes just after the section where we find out marijuana produces no physiological or psychological dependencies. Anyways...

On alcohol: "The drinker's personality becomes expansive, and he or she exudes confidence"

Nice.

On field sobriety tests: "The ability to understand and simultaneously carry out more than two instructions is significantly affected by increasing blood-alcohol levels"

Probably true.

On an unrelated note, my last exam is tomorrow then I'm out of here. It's been a great few months; I'm looking forward to next semester.
