    One of my friends is a heavy pot smoker that had to quit because he wasn't getting high off the Missouri strains after he moved back there from Oregon.

    Apparently Oregon has some of the good shit :shrug:

    EXERCISE.

    The way I eat and all the beer I drink, I'd be 600lbs if I didn't work out.

    Yeah... after 28 years of smoking weed, I'm still 6'/165. I once got up to 175, but was still playing hockey back then.

    As a grownup, the munchies are best served healthy stuff, like smoothies or sandwiches.

    If you don't smoke yourself into oblivion, it's also pretty easy to go on long walks and get some (low impact) exercise.

    Processed weed resin.

    Long story short, it's powdered finely and then compressed into a brick . Tends to look a bit like cat shit. It smokes best in a pipe/bong and poorly in joint form. It also cooks well... Tamar's situation makes it an ideal substitute in anything that'd have raisins or chocolate chips. The scent is more peppery than plain weed.


    It's useful for a grower/producer in that the entire plant can be used. Smokable weed is dried before distribution. Not only does this cause it to be smokable, but also alleviates mold from forming during shipping. Some strains are actually grown for their use as hash...

    For Christmas last year, my son got me an iPod and loaded it up with songs he knew I like and some he thought I would like - and I always shuffle, and sometimes skip over some wonder why on Earth he thought I'd like that one and then some of the joke songs I skip because ... well, I'm in the mood to listen to music not jokes.

    So, anyway, one of the joke songs came up just now and it's the first I'd heard it - yes, 8 months later.

    But, speaking of Sensimilla ...

    With my allergies, smoking it is a risky proposition, but due to a severe pain situation I had in the last few months, I did try some that way... The results were interesting. In your case, I'm guessing that cooking with it as described or using it in teas would be best.

    There are tons of strains or varieties, but from where I'm from it's regarded as some of the best the world has to offer for some reason - I'm no agricultural engineer but if you grow weed the right way, in the right conditions, using the right strain of weed, you're laughing.

    Funny we were talking of this. As some of you know I am going to be going to the Czech republic for about 3 weeks and it looks like I will have at least one layover in Amsterdam. I hear all that stuff is legal there. Of course they will probably keep international folks in an isolated area so they don't have to go through security again.

    No, but they were killing each other over booze in Chicago and a lot of other places back in the 1930s during Prohibition. There's been more than one Revenuer met his end here in the Appalachian Mountains over booze too.

    The plain and simple fact is: you can't legislate morality. It's never worked and it never will.

    That bit was Created by Manson (probably the best bit creator in radio) on the Bubba The Love Sponge Show a few years ago. Some dick head from some "think of the childruuunnn" group reported it to the FCC and that earned Bubba the largest FCC fine in Radio at the time and also got him canned from clear channel

    For those that are interested, Bubba is now on Sirius 101 and Manson and Brent (programming director) are running a tour called "Pagans and Pot-heads"

    Some misconceptions need to be cleared up:
    sensimilla is Spanish for "without seeds." It is the primary stuff most of you are smoking. The two main types are Indica and Sativa. The Indica produces a more heavy body stone and is better for pain. It will pin you to the chair in it's heaviness. Sativa on the other hand gives you a true High, instead of a Stone. You feel clear, talk like a maniac, and giggle. In general, it's a more social high. I personally hate Indicas and only smoke Sativa of high grade.
    When the female plant goes unfertilized it produces more THC resin to capture the male pollen (which is not around, having been destroyed by the grower).
    Contrary to what's been posted, the high varies depending on type, HOW it was grown, and other factors. I've smoked stuff from California that practically was like alcohol in it's effects and hated it, to some incredible stuff. Recently I took ONE hit from a bong and was peaking for almost 3 hours. Holy shit, I could almost see trails and other visuals. Always remember that Marijuana is a hallucinogen, some strains can produce effects similar to LSD. Not as intense, but a hell of a ride.
    Only smoke high-grade bud, not leaf. If it's bud and green, chances are it's good, otherwise it's Mexican crap.

    Ever been sober around people who are stoned? Sure, they think they're geniuses while they're high. Of course, that's one of the tamer varieties of dumb shit people think when they're high.

    ^That's not been my experience, not since I was 16, anyway. I suppose it has more to do with what the people you smoke with's intellectual capacity is before you smoke with them.:shrug:

    Ever been around a sober person when everyone else is high? Sure, they think they're on higher ground, but that stick up their ass must be uncomfortable.

    Part of the process is to wrap it in paper, layers and layers of it and then the bundle is cooked in a fire until it reaches a certain point.
    Afghanistan has some of the finest hashish on the planet but they have some of the best bud on the planet to start with.

    Lebanese hash runs a close second.

    Shit, I can't believe it's been fifteen years since I've run across any of any variety.

    True story. One of my oldest friends has an older brother who their Mum found a matchbox with a loadin it back in our youth. We were always honest with her so he told her, "It's hashish Mom.". :lol:

    Holy shit, we were lectured and heard about that from her for years. :lol:
