I was traveling from the States to Canada in May. I no longer have to carry weed across the border as I have dozens of times. Much less anxiety. I used to wait until my evening stop over two hours from the border. So I loved that last year they opened a CannabisNB(New Brunswick) at the very...
Hey Bologna, Did you ever get that four-pillar recycler from China. Just cleaned mine with a just arrived bottle of 99% iso, which I'd never even seen before and which is amazing stuff for cleaning nasty glass. Of my dozen or more bubblers and bongs, it is still my #1 because of how much...
I'm at my remote little place in far northern Newfoundland. Only strength alcohol I could find around here was 70%. Even with salt and long soaking 70% just wouldn't clear the nasty deposits in my bubbler from my concentraate vaping. Only recently the nearest big post office 30 miles away began...
I'm an American up in Canada(Newfoundland) for several months per usual, as I've owned a little remote place here for more than 25 years. You are dead wrong about America having the best weed situation on the planet! :brow: Up here its legal nationally and in each province. One of my friends has...
Big New York Times piece on problems facing legal MJ in NY and other legal states. Mostly focused on why there are so many illegal shops and how that damages both legal shops and users, who end up consuming pesticides and other chemicals with their weed, and on the addictive(for thirty or so...
Wow. This is extremely disturbing. I read the whole story. Lots of really sleazy people in the legal cannabis industry in Cali. This is going to make ill people even sicker as the greedy scumbags manufacturing and wholesaling poisoned with pesticide products place money over all else. And then...

Florida pot doctors warn about potential chaos after recreational marijuana legalization
Some doctors say the new amendment could imperil access for the state’s 882,000 active medical marijuana...
Four years ago, with legalization in first one and now three adjacent states(and a country, Canada, though I never carry across the border any more), I began to experiment with concentrates along with all the wonderful flower. I like trying new things and have tried just about every cannabis...
Colorado’s Weed Market Is Coming Down Hard and It’s Making Other States Nervous
Businesses are shuttering or laying off workers as sales have plunged by $700 million
Really well-written comprehensive read. I can easily imagine the same thing happening in Maine, next door to where I live in NH...
I've smoked and vaped dope pretty much daily for approximately 50 of the last 55 years, exclusively vaping and occasionally using edibles for ten years now. From that first puff, or actually the first puff in the second session(the very first session didn't do anything) in 1966 or 7) I was a...
Duane Eddy was not only a seminally great guitarist, he was also a great human being who supported and defended his fellow musicians who were black and viciously discriminated against in the late 50s and early 60s. Story told in this interview conducted by the Musicians Hall of Fame.

Found an imbedded small deer(black-legged) tick this week on my belly in bed. Ugh! These are the ones that carry Lyme Disease among other serious illnesses. I have several friends with chronic Lyme screwing up their lives. My doctor was off for the week, but another doctor there called in a...

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...
