Reminder everyone, in case you forget,
Bwahahaha, keep it semi friendly, We don't want to find any Bodies in Trunks around here.
A,nd
it's allowed to post climbing pics here,
or whatever else a CREATIVE Stoner would post.
Is the grinning mudface in "The Damned" that kid Alex, after getting a ropetow on the flooded playa at Ibex? Looks awfully familiar. Old Sherman photo.

So... I have a problem with what I see happening in colorado, et.al.
In the end, it undermines the underground. Or that it underminds US. That group we have developed to fight the man loses its cohesivness and its vast reach.
And the smoke is all too new. It is harvested too Mas Joven. To often, its spongy and a short lived buzz.
The weed that people like is what people grow. It is supply and demand.
I know a guy who grew some white widow and he said that after 3 tokes you could talk to Jesus in person. There are many strains. Super strong, super mellow and long, you name it.
And I don't even smoke weed. I'm one of those people who get incredibly paranoid and uncomfortable when stoned. Since I also gave up drinking, I am regrettably sober as can be. When you are always sober, you will be shocked out how your friends act like total dumbasses when drunk. Stoned people are just mellow.
I lost a friend to alcohol recently, and she was in her late 40's. Her liver was destroyed. Weed doesn't do that. I have seen so much distruction from alcohol that I am in favor of downright replacing alcohol other than the high end stuff, like fine wine of scotch. Or nothing, really.
It ends the Mexican murder machine as far as marijuana is concerned. If you have ever seen that show on natural geographic called "Border Wars," then you see them busting tons of weed at the border. Screw those evil bastards. Have a bunch of 100 plant mom and pop operations. Just like having a peach orchard.
Base, you need to review what you wrote. You are displaying a common logical mistake.
You say that to you certain knowlege, there are people producing varitials of weed that are equivilent to weeds grown using other methods and bases. You presume that they are doing this domestically, subject to some vaguly economic law of supply and demand.
Then you say you don't smoke, and never much did.
So you don't really know what you are talking about.
Guy, I am telling you that there are problems with what is being produced, and that it is a combination of climate, culture, and knowlege. The very economic pressure you quote is killing the quality, as short turnaround of huge profits is what is running the operations right now. Time to germination, time to maturity, weight at maturity and test well on the single psychoactive ingrendiaents they actually have learned to measure cheaply.
Base. respectivly:
You maybe need to approach the issue again, you have not disproved anything about my thesis, not that I was done developing it. You sound like someone who believes the propaganda.
I know better than you. I smoke dope for 45 years all the damn time, and I have EXPER-I-ENCE with the topic.
Its impossible to speak to every varietal grown on somebodies porch somewhere, but to the industry as a whole as to what is being produced in mass quantity, millions of pounds for the masses, that you can speak to in total.
New stuff is spongy, immature and weaker, on the whole. It holds too much moisture, they aren't drying it any longer, water is being sold and its hard to smoke so moist. Nothing gets aged or compressed.
As to the Cabals on the other side, those were created by our misunderstanding of the issue, they are our fault, as Mexico often points out. We can get rid of them easy enough. That leaves the old farmers who DO have the climate, the labor costs and the knowledge and patience to grow one or two crops a year outdoors, where they plants get stronger and thicker and produce the full range of expression that the Latino growers managed to get out of the crop in the old days.
I think the Latino grower on SA Soil is still the future of marijuana. Make it legal, destroy the huge profits, provide a legal channel and nobody in Colorado will ever be able to make a competitive business out of indoor-heated lamp-solar operations using American help unless they have the legally-protected and licensed-mandated Medical market to sell to.
That will be fully guaranteed soon, with licensing and regs. But the other market is soon to be open to competition again.
Mega farms in Mexico will soon be making the high-quality recreational weed and sending it here. How could it possibly be anything else?
California can only do so much growing under the present system, Even if you DO have that genius horticulturalist, who is unbelievably patient and has the genetic seed stock, he is limited to producing only such a small quantity that he can't expand legally under this system.
A ten-thousand small growers means mediocre weed on the whole.
And the loss of our own home grown underground is being totally ignored. Culturally, its a far huger change than just allowing stoners weed. It hurts the Mexican gangs, sure. But it really kills a lot of Americans counter-culture underground, the black economy under your own.
Yar! The feds paid a visit to Nedervale today. Black SUVs and all. Looks as if they were only interested in one dispensary.
As for me, tonite is sour diesel (indoor).
You didn't say we had to say any thing about inflammatory remarks.
While I don't care how much you've smoked, as long as you are feeling stoned and are happy about it, good. I hope most of us feel like that. Good.
I ain't climbing stoned right now because I ain't climbing. Besides, it's thirty-five degrees outside. Who wants to climb in thirty-five degree weather in California? I might make it into the top bunk of a bunk bed. Not much else.

Even though it has been many, many, many moons since old Fletcher has partaken of the pipes of peace, I love you peeps! Shiny happy people only in the very best sense of the term.
In your honor, I snarfed half of a roll of Pillsbury Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough™ that I cooked up tonight. No burning was involved, just a naturally large appetite and zest for life in general.
Now, please contemplate the following and report back by next Tuesday (double-spaced, in triplicate):
I am not smart enough to understand this, but I told the powers that be that I have top people working on it. THIS MEANS YOU! Please, though, don't blow a gasket trying to solve all at once.
[Thanks to Plaidman in another thread for finding that gem].
Every year at my work we have an exclusive competition amongst the chefs after we shut down. They practice hard all year learning tricks & the whole staff gathers & cheers them on. At the end of many battles the field of 13 or so is narrowed down to one champion, as the ritual holds for the last 8 years the victor receives the hallowed GDB trophy and .........................
Savor the victory

The crowd goes wild.
Hehe I work in a pretty funny place.
GDB stands for "golden dong bong", I have no idea where this fukin thing came from hahaha!!
^^^^ hahaha holy sh#t apogee I have no idea how u guys do that stuff & i say this all the time when i see them but that's one of the funniest things I've ever seen!
Did anybody mention Tami's butt? Was it Ghost? And then in the next line something about oiling up? Where's the thread? Am I just dreaming? Should I be banned?
Ed: Yes banned is the new stoned, while STONED is not stoned.

NOS EVENTS CENTER
689 South "E" Street, San Bernardino, CA.
my friend has a booth. he will have girl scout cookie clones for $50.
he will have alot of edibles including cotton candy, lollipops, cookies and weed margaritas. also pipes, vape pens, ear wax and much more.
Don't get me started about Peruvian women, the last two weeks were pretty heady.
Edit; ignore that.
I actually have a sort of stoners TR to share.
I flew into San Jose, Costa Rica, and immediately made my way down to Puerto Viejo. I stayed for a few days, got stoned daily. The bud sucked, but it worked, better than brick, but not by much. However, this beautiful Peruvian woman had the goods and we partook of it for two nights. The language barrier was thick, but we still managed to have fun shaking ass to dancehall.
Next, it was Isla Bastimentos, an island in Bocas del Toro province in Panama. Better bud, better prices, better overall experience. It's a unique place in Panama in that it retains it's indigenous and Afro-Carribean roots. Go there, but don't bring too many friends.
On to David, Panama. No bud. The locals gave me the death stare while I was in town. The hospital there is top notch.
Next up, Boquette. Super nice town with no nightlife. I ditched the first, easy, hostel I stayed at after the first night and moved across the street to a locally owned hostel. The owner and his wife had some cheap, awesome weed to sell. This place was the hangout for the Peruvian and Brassilian and Argentenian dreadie hippies. A good spot for sure.
From there, no bud for a huge day of bus riding. Two busses, a border crossing, a taxi ride, and then a four hour bus ride landed me in Dominical, Costa Rica. I love Dominical, it's a fun town to stay in.
While there, I scored a couple of grams of really good ganj, but only after the dude who sold it to me threatened to kill me. Measure your words and watch your back in Dominical, I guess.
I have to apologize. I found the thread and it's not about "Tami's butt" and "oiling up"!. It's about "Tami'¨s butt" and "toiling upwards". I have no idea how I ended up thinking what I thought. Pardon me, I'm Swedish!
This is great! I went to this thread earlier today to get that Monte Python movie. I sent it to a customer in the UK That I went off on as part of my apology.
Anyway, I don't want to go climbing - it scares me - so I don't need any circumstances. And then, just when I think I'm free of the climbing demon, the terror cycle starts all over again.
Dude, I get too weird when I get stoned. I start thinking and stuff.
I was thinking earler about a line that could be used on one of the boob threads; 'snatched from the jaws of death' Would need a photo to go with it of course.....but over there on that thread. I know where to find the boob. Don't need it here.
I was trying to figure out that pic. To me it looked like the guy was swimming off the the side of the shark and the thing that is his fin infront of the shark - I thought you drew a boob on the sharks nose......glad I figured it out finally!
I kind of saw myself as the cameraman and he was coming after me. Thanks, yeah I'm stoned - I don't really smoke much - a bud can last me 2 or 3 years - but it's funny, I think of getting stoned a lot.
Not everyone likes big boobs — for example, North Korea
Published January 28, 2013
GlobalPost
SEOUL, South Korea — That's right. Large-breasted women are so discriminated against in North Korea they try to shrink or hide their boobs in order to boost their social standing, according to the South Korean daily JoongAng Ilbo as cited by Korea watcher Robert Koehler.
North Korea's patriarchal society apparently views nature's generosity with suspicion, defectors told JoongAng Ilbo.
The bigger your breasts, the more likely you'll be considered a slut, the women reportedly said, because you're seen as strutting your stuff — as if morality determines that development. Imagine their shock when they escape to find themselves the envy of all their smaller-breasted friends. What? Big boobs are good?
GlobalPost's senior correspondent for East Asia, Geoffrey Cain, says that North Korea is trailing behind trends that are more popular elsewhere in the region.
As Asia gets wealthier, bigger and cosmetically enhanced breasts are coming in vogue.
"Boob jobs" are popular in South Korea, where the people are the most cosmetically enhanced in the world, Cain said, who is based in Seoul, and they're also becoming a hot item for the new affluent women of China, Vietnam and Indonesia.
But North Korea hasn't gone that far yet, although plastic surgery is not uncommon among the upper-class women of Pyongyang.
Cain reports:
The desire for small breasts is a form of chastity in this conservative and male-dominated society. North Koreans take pride in their culture being supposedly pure and untainted by the evils of Western capitalism, a charge that they always lob at their southern cousins.
In Koehler's account of the Korean-language report:
One defector from Hoeryong said she had a work friend with large breasts who often ate chives because she’d heard they make your boobs smaller. She added that she was surprised upon learning that women in the South actually have operations to make their breasts bigger.
The isolationist nation is known for wild propaganda efforts, but this is a real head-shaker. Life is tough enough in North Korea as it is — leave the breasts alone!

In Poland, mouse is a "she", we would call a girl Mouse. But cat is a "he". My Polish nickname is Cat. All my Polish friends call me Cat, even my wife and my daughter.
LOL. Stupid Americans, everything here is backwards ;)
I've been out here in Calif ALONE, working and trying to work for almost a month, and I wish I had some Boobs to look at!
My Wife's that is. And, it looks like I'm not going to see any
for the next couple of weeks if not more.
:(
FUK!!!!
Now it's raining outside, and the rain wasn't due in till
Thursday. I can hear it pounding on the roof of my 10x8 travel trailer
I stay in while I'm in Cali. This could probably screw up my window washing for tomorrow.
I need to work.
I need MONEY.
That's why I'm NOT
with my HONEY.
Male Dream Cat. Female Half Dome. The river is a flowing drool in my dream/reverie, stepping light through the light in the forest and the meadows.
Hell, he's looking for Fish, not Cats.
I used to know a guy upstairs named Joel Nixon. He's no longer here. He had a stuffed Bulldog and he called him Mussy, short for not much, just Muscles. He never talked but Joel commited thought processes to fitting Mussy into the conversations. It was weird being stoned with Joel, because you were listening to Mussy tell him things he, Joel, was already thinking. In other words, a two-way/three-way state of affairs. But we were stoned, so it didn't matter. Not much does if you are in the right place.
Joel is not to be confused with Tricky Dick for sure, nor to be confused with Super Personality Man, which Joel was, when he was away from Mussy, which he never really could be, I suppose, since Mus was his creation, his silent partner.
Me, the Mouse, could relate to Mus on the level of names, as I am Mustelid, as Ron pointed out today: Mus musculus, the ordinary house and field wee beastie mouse. Amazing world of curcumstance and coincidence, in which I lived down one flight from Mussy the Wonderful.
I am back in the lodge drinking some strange liquid called coors while my wife is skiing (and possibly fraternizing with some ski instructor).
I post here because I don't consider those liquids beer.
Hey, where is everybody? I was going to say I almost got stoned tonight, that I passed the window, came within a horse-tail length of getting stoned.....and then I finally got stoned.......I went back to the window.
I wanted to say the other night - last time I was on here, that I'm glad it's legal up here now - I don't have to hide it with the mosquito repellent any longer. That's a big improvement. The riple will move out from there. I still have a photo of the first joint I ever smoked. It's the negatives actually. I'm not sure I ever had postives made!
That first time was in the northern most trailer park in Lee-Vining. I was just out of high school and on my way to Alaska with a friend - we stopped and got jobs at the Pumis Mine. Don't ask me why we did that - we must not have had any money.
The funny thing I remember about that first time getting stoned was the laughing. It seemed like I was faking it - maybe I had heard you are supposed to laugh. Well, I never have figured out if I had faked it or not and it sure no longer matters.
I'll have to get a print of that negative and post it here, but first I have to find it all over again. I think it's because the negative of the joint is blurry is why I never got a print. Brandon, you aren't really a frog are you?
I got LONELY today, because I've been away from my wife
for a month washing windows in calif, So, even tho I can't really afford
it, I smoked a couple, hopped in my truck at 8pm, and drove to see my Sweet Wifein Vegas for two days and then go back to Calif and work for another month.
I sure hate being away from her for so long, but I do what I have to,
to provide for my lovely Wife.
Cosmic . . . you are getting a bit too sentimental . . . it is alright! Do not miss what you do not have . . . it just gives you more of what you do not have!
Cosmeeeek is an awesome example of a man who loves his wife. Your sentimentality is heartwarming and gives me hope that not all men are dicks. Now, go smoke a bowl!
Brandon, it would be a long discussion whether being drunk is worst than being stoned. I've been drunk a few (;-)) times, but never stoned. I had been shoked, though, by how "the stoned" people were "out" and how fast they became substance dependent compared to the alcohol drinking falks.
I smoke regularly. In the evening, just like some people have a beer after work.
I've gone months without, due to wanting to take a break, financial constraints, lack of availability, etc.
Never have I noticed any sort of dependence issues. It's not addictive, but I'll concede that it's habit forming. Kind of like anything that's fun. Skiing, climbing, sex, smoking some ganj...
Plus, you've never done it. Judgement on something that you've never even tried is invalid. :)
Woo Hooo!
I'm in Vegas till monday seeing my wife, and fixing the water heater.
Sitting in bed next to my wife smokin one watchin tv and Posting while stoned.
I'm making the most of it because once I go back to Calif I willbe there for a month or more.
I came close to Moving up to Seattle Washington on Whidbey Island.
Donna and I had an opportunity to be permanent caretakers on 80 acres.
The people were looking for someone to look after all their parrots they train and use in shows. they have 2 3000' avieries and over 40 parrots of all kinds. They wanted us but they needed us by next week. If only they could have given us a month to a month and a half to get our affairs in order, and time to move, We would have been living in Washington in the next couple of months.
He's keeping our contact info just in case the people he had to hire
because we couldn't get there in the short time, doesn't work out.
It's a bummer because we had the position if we could have made it up there next week.
I hope the caretakers they had to get won't work out, because that would be perfect for Donna and I. A salary,2 bedroom houseon 80 acres with all utilities paid; What mor could you ask for?
No. every bit of it true.
We talked with the owner last nite and he said we had the position if we could get up there next week.
There was no way we could get packed and try to sell our mobile home
and shut down my business in Calif in less than a week.
stone is permeated with mental process, it's just that stone, being a low-entropy zone, is less susceptible to mental process than, say, a human neural network
Cosmic...I'm up in northern Washington caretaking this parrot reserve...If you're ever up here you'll have to visit and enjoy one of our parrot barbeques....RJ
worst nightmare in the world, pac-a-nuggie and the bic quits,
2 nd worst nightmare, no backup! amateur hour or what?
no problem for a stoner,
they can find water on the sun if it means getting high,
so a quick scan of household items reveals an ace in the hole,
a Wagner heart gun,
not only will it light the weed on high,
but put it on the low range and you have a Volcanoe Vaporizer for $17.95 instead of $400, and much less hassle, just lock and load, no air bags or grinders required, jus sayin,
if you don't beleive me, give it a try at home,
PS, i smoked a bowl with Bridwell out of this pipe, and it fell out of my car on a mountain road and i went back and found it, survivor pipe, wtf, over?
PSS: allen wrenches and calculator not required,
it's friday, right?
every day is friday when you sell weed for a livin, sure, call the FBI, let them wander into the fish hooks at night,
How to recover from sci. Eat at little teensy bit of cookie. Then figure out how your body works again.. Shhh don't tell anyone me left leg can do this now;
Let us know!
