They're not. Earth Day is on April 22.

Thank you for not capitalizing the "h" in that man's name. I've written/typed it very few times in my life and never give him the respect of capitalization. Many of my ancestors died in camps.

Yes we can agree on this, that hitler sucks ass.
So my bad, it's on lenin's birthday

180 marijuana plants found at 77-year-old Congressional candidate’s home

It’s not often you hear about a 77-year-old woman running for office admitting to smoking weed. She knows it’s illegal but also says there’s no such thing as bad publicity and is now using that to help her campaign.

“I really don’t regret that this happened,” Matheson said. It’s been a life changing experience for me and in that it has made me more defiant and determined to try and get these laws changed.”

This sanitizes consumption. Newbies are going to dig this. I could see this becoming a hit over time to new users. Not so much interest from long-time users, I'd guess.

I see people taking out the top screen and making a reusable "pod".

It looks interesting, but it's not for me. I couldn't find a price. I'm guessing it's going to priced more like a Kitchenaid stand mixer than a Keurig.

The Cannacup cannabis would depend on price, taste and how well it medicated. I see folks reusing the container too. Give me some nice organic home grow any day vs big business cookie cutter style cannabis.

I will have to admit, I havent been in a recreational state store yet. Will be trying it out soon.

If you're in Lansing Michigan and looking for something to do, how about getting highly spiritual?

Cannabis Church

The First Cannabis Church of Logic and Reason is scheduled to hold its inaugural service and potluck from 1-3 p.m. Sunday, led by Jackson resident Jeremy Hall, a 34-year-old ordained minister. It will be held inside the Lansing Herbal Farmers Market, 918 Southland Ave.

Lansing voters passed in 2013 a City Charter amendment that mandates nothing in the city's Code of Ordinances applies to the use, possession or transfer of less than once ounce of marijuana on private property by a person who is at least 21.

THC mind control!! those THC are out to get the human populace and are invading our water supply!!

There is something fishy about all this THC in well water stuff: THC does not dissolve in water. So how is it being found in the water? Oil? Particulates? Whoever did the test spilled some weed in the container? I suspect it's all bull to bring some business into Hugo.

Exactamundo!

 

[Squiby]

Hoards of people will be flocking to Hugo. Water will be bottled, stored and covetted, at least until the authorities filter it out or something. The entrepreneurs in the area will sell it to near by communities and beyond. Maybe Hugo water will get a listing on Leafly.com.

What a perfect combination; Drink THC water, get thirsty, drink THC water, get thirsty, drink ........

Anyone know how to get to Hugo from here?

Omaha dad finds pot brownies, eats 4 of them, says mean things to cat

I didn't even have to come up with a smartassy title for this one, that's the actual headline verbatim.

When you overdose on coke, you die. When you "overdose" on cannabis, you just call your cat a bitch.

Marijuana social network is coming — for seniors!
Detroit-
Take it as an indicator in the rapidly changing world of cannabis use, but a group of senior citizens are organizing their own social network to discuss marijuana. Clearly, it’s not just for teenagers anymore.

The group, the Seniors 420 Network, is a way for seniors who use marijuana recreationally and medically to find one another. Proposed goals include finding friends or roommates, identifying business opportunities, buying and selling items, learning tips or tricks, and, of course, organizing to challenge laws against cannabis.

We old folk rock!!!
