    Just so you know that would be in the coffee tea aisle of any Wal-Mart in the country.

    Orange Pekoe is a grade of tea, not a type.

    Pekoe is lowest, leftover powder and processing dregs, Orange Pekoe next grade up (typically supermarket teas), all the way to TGFOP, Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe. Can be any kind of tea, that's how they grade it, Darjeeling, Assam, etc.

    Speaking of which, too much caffeine can cause hyperverbosis. Use responsibly.

    Just as its legal to drink alcohol don't mean its legal to drive, the same goes for the green grass you can legally smoke it just don't drive after you've used it. In most cases with alcohol as a professional CDL driver you must show 00 in your breath test, so you would need to show a negative for drugs as well.

    Good luck showing negative in 6 months. Alcohol only takes 24 hours or less.

    And this is my biggest hope with all these states pass pot laws. Hopefully we'll end up with an accurate test that can determine if someone is under the influence "now".
    I honestly don't care of they were high a week ago. Well other then it's against the law.
