  High Times - The Extraordinary...

  High Times is the true story of Michael Medjuck, whose taste for weed, women and the good life led him from late-1960s Johannesburg to notoriety as one of the biggest hash and weed smugglers in North America.
  From his base in Vancouver, Michael built up a smuggling network that supplied dealers in scores of cities across Canada and the United States. The proceeds from smuggling afforded this former King David High School pupil a lifestyle of hedonistic excess – the finest wines, the most glamorous hookers, the best weed in the world.
  In 1991, Michael was nabbed by US federal agents while smuggling an enormous shipload of Afghani hash into the West Coast of Canada. Put on trial as the scheme's mastermind, Michael was convicted and sentenced to 24 years behind bars.
  His prison experiences, from dingy county lock-ups to brutal federal penitentiaries, are the stuff of legend. Eventually, a chance remark to his lawyer led to his early release and return to Canada.
  After barely a year of freedom, Michael was again arrested – this time in Spain for an ill-judged cocaine smuggling venture – and sentenced to an additional prison term of nine years.
  This is Michael's extraordinary story, as told to fellow South Africans Roy Isacowitz, author and journalist, and the late Jeremy Gordin, award-winning journalist, editor and author.

  Surely, you have ever wondered: can animals ingest cannabis? What effects does it have on my pet? Can cannabis cure my pet? These and other doubts can be clarified in the following audiobook in which you will learn about the use of cannabis in animals. 
  The cannabis plant has been used by man for more than 4,000 years before Christ; for psychoactive, therapeutic and industrial purposes; also throughout history we can see how cannabis has been very close to the animal world. From the Greeks, who used it to heal wounds and hemorrhages in their horses, also the green seeds were immersed in water or wine and then heated to relieve ear pain and inflammation. The first known record of use in animals was in 1607 where Edward Topsell claimed that combining hemp seeds with a horse's regular ration caused rapid weight gain and in the 1800s, American veterinarians ordered medications for equine colic with high doses of cannabis. 
  Currently, the use of cannabis has had an increase in its medicinal applications due to the isolation of its multiple cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol, cannabigerol or cannabichromene, which are characterized by having little or no psychoactive activity. Its therapeutic potential has been evidenced in osteoarthritis pain, allergic and inflammatory disorders, epilepsy, anxiety, skin conditions, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, arousing great interest also in the field of veterinary medicine and pet owners. 
  In this audiobook, you will learn a little more about the history of cannabis in animals, endocannabinoid system in animals, its receptors, phytocannabinoids, terpenes and recommended strains, all the homeostatic-physiological functions and therapeutic uses in animals, as well as the different routes of administration, dosage, cannabis toxicosis and products on the market.

  The plan works even if you have $0 to your name and currently make minimum wage. 
  If you have nothing to your name and currently only make minimum wage, it can take up to 20 years. 
  Otherwise, if you are already partway there, it will happen faster for you. 
  It might sound sensational, but at the end of the day, setting yourself up for retirement is just a matter of simple math and consistent long-term self-discipline. It is as extremely easy, completely realistic, and actually unavoidable as it is for an obese person who is 200 lbs overweight to lose that weight and keep it off by following a certain diet plan with a certain calorie budget. 
  This is not a get-rich-quick scheme. This is not the crash diet of financial plans. This is a long-term plan that uses the power of consistency, self-discipline, and exponential growth to generate seemingly incredible results over the long-term. But they only seem incredible. Ultimately, it is simple math, and the real power comes simply from you having the self-discipline to follow the plan consistently year after year.
