God help me, I've joined Apple Music almost entirely to listen to and hopefully download extended cuts of some of my favorite jam songs without having to buy whole albums. The primary incentive was an article from the NYT four years ago touting the best versions of Grateful Dead's Dark Star...

Can't believe I just read nearly this entire thread. What a story. I'm an old guy too and try my best not to imagine being locked up. Until recently when Canada became legal and my state became non-criminalized, I routinely carried stuff across the border where I own a remote little place, and...

Took my snow tires off two weeks ago so of course we've had more snow since then than in the entire winter: 25 inches two weeks ago today; 13 inches a week ago, and 19 inches this past Wed, Thurs and Friday. Living on a steep hill, I really couldn't safely go out in the car for three days. But...

I know I'll get a lot of raspberries and sneers, but I still love my little G Pen Connect. Been using it daily for five years now with my favorite bong, a four pillar recycler purchased with Shitsnacks advice. I've got a RIO and a whole lot of really nice bangers and ruby beads and fumed...

My little getaway is in Canada, Newfoundland specifically. I drive up and back a couple of times a year through New Brunswick and Nova Scotia where I stock up at the provincial cannabis stores in those two provinces for my several months stays at my remote place at the northern tip of...

In a great article about cats, this was the most liked comment: "Cats have proven that the earth is not flat. If it was they would have knocked everything off by now." Here's the free share article "Cats Aren't Jerks. They're Just Misunderstood" in WaPo https://wapo.st/3TxfXje

Was into Science Fiction when I was a teenager, 60 f-ing years ago and read Dune way back then. Drove south yesterday to North Conway: Outstanding pastrami at Moat Mtn. and a big strong hoppy ale. Had the Crafty + loaded for the five minute drive to the theater. Bought a cup a coffee with my...

Thanks. Turns out I've got a few of those little silicone containers that I got with my og RIO. I'll give 'em a try. I made a run to the best rosin shop I know of in Maine or Mass the other day and now have four different rosins to play with. :)

I mostly buy--and enjoy--rosin, resin, caviar, budder, and sugar in small 1 gm glass jars. I like to keep 4-6 products open and handy. These small heavy glass jars and various "child safe" plastic tops can become a serious problem for us oldsters.I have increasing arthritis in my hands...

Already got my reservation for the first week of May. RE Thaw!: I'm hoping the harbor is still partially frozen when I get up there. Some years the harp seals welp their white-coat pups on the vast sea ice flows, but that'll be over by May. One of the great things I've learned the last few...

I've been thinking of buying a Wand, but the ispire web site has no Wands and nothing about the Wand and no place to look for support. Is the Wand out of date or why are they pretending it doesn't exist? I'm not sure about buying something that is unsupported and no place to go for spare parts...

Ah, 71. Young people. I remember those days!:)
