It's a huge system, and the other side is actively tearing it down before, during, and after we finish building it.

So tons of time has to go by while he tries to outmaneuver his opponent on things like this, and closing bases. Or so I would hope that's what he does.

I can't wait to see the look on a friend's face when I see him next. He was one of the last dispensary busts, and he had cash, and he had a gun. The guy is the friendliest, kindest person I think I've ever met. They also beat the rap. It was their case that began turning this around. They went through hell. So hopefully this will cascade down. Hell, there is no hopefully, even if we get a shit in office, because as we can all plainly see, the world is changing. Reality is becoming real again.
