Unless Ol' Will had smoked a substantial amount of pot within a few weeks of his death, it would have passed through his system before he died and thus be undetectable.

I'm pretty sure this is blasphemy. Can someone check to see if Brian Jacques resurrected through sheer rage from beyond the grave to kick some ass on Shakespeare's behalf?

Wait, does weed even grow in the UK? No, but then this island has been trading with countries as far afield as India and (what was then) Constantinople since Roman times, so it would have been imported: It's noted for its medicinal use in the 16th century and Puritans (of all people) were fans of it for this purpose.

Ah, I see. I didn't even think of it being grown elsewhere and traded.

Can you put Michael Bay with her? I'd love to know what he's on/what's fucked up in his brain, too. Watch Transformers, it's clear. No, no, don't do that. I wouldn't wish Transformers on Ron Paul. I'll spare your sanity. Michael Bay has the mind of a five year old and writes what amuses him. Pee jokes, racial and ethnic stereotypes, and giant robot balls make him laugh. Unless there's a drug that makes pee jokes funny, that is....Otherwise, his brain is just underdeveloped. No worries, I'm staying far away from the movies...at least until I decide to hop the reviewer bandwagon in an attempt to insane myself to death. I'm perfectly content watching others explain what the movies are about and the nonsense that happens in them. Wrecking ball testicles; really, Bay? Really? No thanks.

I would LOVE to do the "internet commentary" thing but I have no experience with video editors and am ugly as fuck. Both can be evidenced by my collection of music on Youtube. >.< I was excited for the first one. I didn't think even Michael Bay could wreck giant robots fighting. GOD, was I wrong. I didn't see the second, but it didn't take long for giant robo balls to show up EVERYWHERE.

I'm ugly as fuck (you'll see, once I upload a picture of me with my snazzy new hair) but I do have experience with video editors. Well...editor, singular, but still. I made a decent attempt at matching up LK's Out There parody with the original, so yay. davedan: That was YOU? Fuck you, cracker!

I'm... I'm not even sure it can be detected this long after the fact. Of course I'm not expert on detecting drugs on a corpse. Maybe it could be leftover on the fibers of the clothing he wore?
EDIT: Re-read, they want to check fingernails and the like... hm. I think it would take more than a few puffs to show up on his nails or anything else.
But either way... really? Is this... is this NECESSARY? at all? The guy's been dead for centuries. If it is even possible to detect and we find out he did smoke pot or bang the gong... will that really change a single bit of how we look at his writing?
I'm not even sure if back in Shakespeare's day they even knew if teeth were not the same as bone. Could be totally wrong, not an expert in that time frame.
Honestly? I don't really think it's necessary to go through all of this trouble to see how he died. I guess it has to do with science and how we 'should because we can'. But still... Even if it's found he did coke, pot, or whatever else it won't change how I look at his writing.

I have trouble with my music editor and instead usually use a 4 track. Even then, I have trouble. one of the reasons I started doing straight takes with video camera and putting them on Youtube. Keeps my obssessing to a minimum. Plus, I might lose my mind doing things like Transformers: ROTF, but mostly, it's my lack of know-how combined with the impatience to learn to do something (I just want to make it NOW!) and my compulsive urge to get it right.

You can make it grow anywhere if you want it to grow.

Marijuanna actually has several different forms that grow in various places around the world. For instance, Kush and Purple Kush all originate from the Kush mountain range in Afghanistan. And then up here in Canada, we have BC Bud and Quebec Gold, which are technically just very closely related, but not exactly the same plant as they contain slightly different compounds and varying levels of THC.
At least... that's what I've read...
