Hey bubbleman, truecannabliss et-al, so many of you have moved me emotionally in this thread with your words of encouragement and well wishes..
I don't feel comfortable about passing my hat around, but I have had to ask for help, and got it from some friends when I was stuck in jail, mainly to keep my family from starving over in the Philippines..A good friend even paid for my flight ticket from Manila back to London. Even though I was deported, the flight ticket had to be paid for somehow. If I had waited for the Philippine Bureau of Immigration to pay for it, then I could have been detained for many months more.
The business I had before I was incarcerated has dropped considerably to the point where we can't even buy new stock, and what comes in barely pays for the overheads. Maybe I should start looking at other ways of earning a living?

You have lived a hell of a story man. Get as much of it on paper or tape or video as you can.
Right Now While It Is Fresh.
Do not worry if it is good. There is plenty of time for that.
Then write or produce or sell that story.
The timing is perfect. This story will resonate all over the U.S. and many parts of the world. The storm that is decriminalization and legalization is just getting started.
