I'm getting old...

[lauren grier]

today I learned what salvia is....... c/o miley cyrus.. the best part is (if that wasn't bad enough).. I read the same line 50 times.. wondering why and how one would smoke saliva. yes. Hello, I'm la.. and I'm an old clueless fart.

[KateD]

I have no clue what you're talking about. Lol, I guess that makes me older and more clueless!

[BrattyMeg]

I learned what it is too..and at first I thought it said saliva

crazy kids

[lovely1m]

I heard it on the radio first, had I not, I would have thought the same thing.

[mummytothree]

Color me clueless too!! Off to google....maybe!!!

[TeriBeary]

I did the same thing

[rach3975]

Now I'm very curious...I guess I'm old and clueless, too.

Count me in on the old and confused - I have boys - so..... no miley

LOL I first read exactely the same thing than anyone else. So I had to search an online dictinary for salvia. Funny enough, I do know that word in German very well. And La, if it makes you feel better, here every granny will know what salvia drops are (good against a sore throat), but most kids never heard of it. So you are actually very young, belonging to the no-clue-about-herbs wild generation...

But why people would smoke that was beyond me. For me you might smoke peppermint just as well then. But I googled and apparently the "magic salvia" as it's called here is only one very special salvia species. So in that regard, yes we are old.

[emmasmommy]

yup. you're speaking a foreign language to me

I thought salvia was a completely harmless herb that I use in cooking. OK, now I see that what I use is Salvia officinalis, while the smoking species is called Salvia divinorum. One never stops learning, LOL.
