I don't know from Ambien, but I will testify that weed can and does do good (as well as bad, if you don't do anything except smoke weed and eat dorritos.)for alot of people. I dont know that many lawyers, but i know plenty of people in management level finance positions who partake. It aint all hippies- in fact, at any given time, at least 75% of the NBA is high- and you know i'm right, although i have no statistical evidence.
Pot helps relieve stress, its relaxing, and when mixed with live music and a few beers, ooh wee- watch out. That, and its pretty affordable and is usually consumed in social situations. Oh, and it should probably be legal, but thats another post. ANd would that i were still living in NYC, i'd gladly spark a bowl with le castor and whomever else wanted to partake.
