My days

I have resumed my swimming training today. Its been a while I got into a pool and it felt funny. I still remember my few tricks though, I can do the freestyle, swim backwards and manage a dive. Hope to get better at it soon.

Is Alcohol, Cigar and Cigarette safe?

I would like to know if there are any benefits to drinking alcohol, and smoking a cigar or cigarette? I"m quite learned, and I know our bodies need some amount of alcohol to function in some metabolic processes. I also know that we gain this required amount of alcohol from fermented foods like yoghurt so its not very necessary for us to drink in alcohol for this purpose. So my question is, what do we gain from alcohol? Its not healthy, it has numerous side effects plus leads to countless accidents yearly. Why is it legal? Why do our governments who claim to care about us so much allow us to take it in? They place bans on dangerous drugs and narcotics, why don't they do same with alcohol? Of-course, I'm aware of what happened in the U.S during 1920 to 1933( Prohibition) but what health benefits do we gain from alcohol.??? Wont even speak about Cigar's and cigarettes... Nicotine is hazardous to humans, what more explanation do we need? Plus, its addictive. The only reason I can give is it's financial benefits to the producers. I'm in Ghana, Africa and I think the only reason why marijuana isn't legal worldwide is because it profits would go to South Americans and Africans more than it would for Europeans. Because, like seriously, what benefits do we gain from cigar's and cigarettes? God help us.

My days

I've been quite busy today. My new work environment offers quite a challenge since I, together with a partner go round some principle streets of Accra to verify whether business owner's have operating permits. It's quite cool, since we attached to the A.M.A and people are sort of afraid of us. Today was pretty good. Looking forward to the future.
