On the Bright Side!

I'm going to go in a different direction for a while.  Rather than focus on the dark side (all too easy these days) I'm going to look for good news to write about.  So here's something for today:

Connecticut has legalized recreational marijuana.  So now it is OK to use and cultivate pot.  In addition, thousands of past convictions for possession will be expunged.

Connecticut is the 19th state to take this step, and the fifth to do so this year.  So let's hear it for the Nutmeg State.  Good news!  Way to go!
