Bonging Kills the Flu

[mdpm99]

Some Doctors are suggesting that several bonging sessions a day of good Hawaiian Bud will cause the Flu Virus to die and exit your body. After sparking up the bowl, graemlins/kos.gif exhale and yell out the following:

"BE GONE MUTANT VIRUS!"


You will see miraculous results. Try it! graemlins/snoopy.gif

Ps.

;) The Flu shot was developed by the goverment. It is not a vaccine but a drug that gives people the urge to shop and spend money. That is why this goes on every Christmas season.

PPs.

mad1.gif I have this big red pimple on my butt. I just know this is the flu. Oh, this is not fun. I really want to pop it. but I'm afraid i will spread the flu more. :eek:

PPPs.

graemlins/thumbsup.gif Worth a try:


I have found these simple remedies to be very heplful:

1. Get a one gallon water bottle. Squeeze the juice of one lemon into the water. Drink the entire gallon over the course of one day. This keeps you hydrated, thins the secretions, and helps flush the virus out. Make sure you can get to the bathroom. Slow down, get some rest--take it easy!

2. Get a piece of ginger root from the supermarket. Cut off a piece the size of a 25-cent (quarter dollar) piece. Peel, it, grater it into a mug. Add boiling water to make a tea. Let it steep for 5 minutes. Try to drink the tea while it is hot. You might find that the ginger burns a little bit, and may make your eyes water. If you can tolerate it, try chewing some of the leftover gratered ginger sediment. I find that this knocks out a sore throat. One cup before bedtime does the trick.

3. Vitamin C, 500mg capsules (ester-C) 2000mg (4 capsules) every 4-6 hours while awake, and Zince 50mg once a day, boosts the immune system. Don't over do the orange juice, because it is very acidic for the body.

4. Wash hands frequently. Keep a wad of clean tissues on hand. If you anticipate a sneeze, grab a tissue, and do your best to sneeze into the tissue! Keep all used kleenex tissues in a separate grocery store bag, and dispose of them frequently. Don't let'em pile up!

5. For a sore throat, make a warm salt water mixture (to taste, not too salty), and gargle as needed, OR
Hydrogen peroxide from the pharmacy, mix with some water, (1 part Hyd. Per to 3 parts water), and gargle as needed. A friend told me today that baking soda gargles work wonders.

6. Honey and lemon mixture with rum or brandy is comforting to the throat. Experiment to find your own ratios. I use the juice of one lemon, 2 shot glasses of rum, and honey to taste. Place in a small jar, shake to mix. Sip a shot glass full over crushed ice...yummy!

7. Hot fluids are good too, such as soups, broths and teas...

I hope you can find relief with these suggestions. No one dislikes having a cold or a sore throat more than me...

Feel better!!!

for sore throats gargle with warm salt water

salt water is far better than any antiseptic mouthwash or sore throat medicine

I was talking about this with someone yesterday. I've always been leery of the flu shot. In college my coach used to try to get us to take the flu shot, but I was not having it! It seems that everyone who gets the flu shot gets sick, I don't get it.

I am the same way......leery. I have yet ever to get a shot. It seems weird as the "shot" is the "dead virus" and can take up to 3 weeks to be "so called effective."

It's also my understanding that the flu that everybody is catching is different than the multi-virus vaccine made available to the public ..in the begining!

Also it just might make some people carriers of the "bug" and thereby help spread the virus.

now while we're on the subject:

SPEAKING OF BONGS....

Bongs are essentially water pipes, where the cannabis smoke is passed through water before inhaling. This has the effect of cooling the smoke and to some extent filtering the smoke by removing the heavy tar elements.

This produces a less harsh and safer smoke, especially if you smoke pure cannabis without any horrible tobacco contaminating the high.

Smoking in this way gets you stoned much quicker than joints and inexperienced smokers might find they get too high too quickly, particularly if they aren't many people sharing the hits. Bongs can be bought commercially but the best ones are the ones you build yourself as they have that personalised touch. Creating a bong is another area where many cannabis smokers take a pride in their creativity.

Ordinary Bong

1) Use a plastic bottle such as a 2 litre fizzy drink bottle. Make two holes on opposite sides of the bottle about halfway up. Insert a rubber tube into one of the holes - the tube must be an exact fit.

2) Make a hole in the lid of the bottle and insert a metal or glass tube or pipe. The tube or pipe must fit exactly into the hole and reach almost to the bottom of the bottle.

3) Attach a gauze to the top of the pipe. It is best to use a gauze purchased from a pipe shop.

4) To use: Fill the bottle with water so that the bottom of the pipe is submerged. Place weed on the gauze. Block the hole on the side of the bottle with your finger, place the rubber tube in your mouth. Inhale through the tube whilst burning the weed. Once its all burned, release your finger and suck up the smoke as fast as you can.

* In my experience a bong purchased from a shop will give you a better buzz. The issue here is air-tightness - most home made units will not be completely airtight (or will not stay that way after a few uses).

Bucket Bong

1) Cut the bottom off a 2 litre bottle. Find a container large enough for the 2 litre bottle to sit in and be almost completely submerged. Recommended: use a 5 litre water bottle & cut the top off so that the 2 litre bottle just fits inside.

2) Cut a hole in the lid of the bottle & attach a gauze. It is best to use a gauze purchased from a pipe shop. You can use a piece of tinfoil with holes in it, but this may have long term health risks.

3) To use: fill the larger container with water and place the smaller container inside, as far down as it will go. Place weed on the gauze. Slowly raise the smaller container as you burn the weed. It will fill with dense smoke. Once the bottom of the bottle is at the water line, remove the lid. Push the bottle back down again as you inhale the smoke through the bottle top.

* A good bucket will get you higher than any shop-bought bong!

Time to get Chinese...
