I had a jimson weed in Jacksonville Florida. I saw one along the road here in the Phoenix area, and found out that they are hallucinogenic.

They have pretty white "trumpet" flowers on them. I've heard that cattle eat them; I wonder what effect it has on the cattle.

All the better to get them to sign those "Pull the Plug" waivers for Obamacare.
