    That's the best advice to ever give. Hubby done his fair share of pot smoking as he was growing up. He cleaned up his act a couple years before we met 8 years ago. He actually put it on his application. Never was questioned about it....

    What do you mean don't lie? What do they ask about your past? Your 44. They ask you what you did in high school? Do they ask you what your doctor gave you for your broken arm or what your dentist gave you for a tooth you got pulled?
    I'm not being a smart ###. I've just heard this scary stuff before. :biggrin_25526:
