Michael Blames Marijuana For Ruining His Memory

Pop superstar George Michael blames his marijuana habit for his dreadful memory - he can remember hardly anything from his days in 1980s pop duo Wham!.
The FAITH singer admits he is addicted to the drug - and is aware it is slowly ruining his voice - but believes it keeps him creative.
Michael says, "It's strange how little I remember from the Wham! days because I was working so much.
"I was totally sober at that time and although there were some important experiences, like our tour to China, I can hardly remember anything."

Obviously this habbit can be difficult to get rid off. Still on the long term George will finally realise that he should have quit earlier and not end up at 50 to sound like Ozzy because of marihuana. I strongly believe creativity comes from other things too, especially the new things in one's life.

It's not the marijuana that's causing his memory to fade, it's called old age. Also, if he wants to preserve his vocal cords he should use a vaporizer for his marijuana. see www.medicalmarijuanaprocon.org for some cool stuff on non-smoked marijuana.
