Felicity had an interesting encounter with our dysfunctional health system recently. If you’re not from the United States, you may be befuddled by this story because it couldn’t possibly be true. If you do live in the U.S., you will probably sigh in commiseration or cynically say, “Well, of course! Everyone is used to this! […]

Paul McCartney Admits Using Dangerous Drug
OK, even we can use a clickbait headline every once in awhile. But we always do it with a higher purpose, which is generally exposing hypocrisy. In this case, it’s the hypocrisy of celebrated ex-Beatles bassist and songwriter Paul McCartney. Here’s a man who’s accumulated nearly a billion dollars, much of it from his songwriting — […]
How To Roll A Joint Sixties Style
No machines. No “filters”. No “crutches”. No bullshit! Just rolling paper, weed…and a double album! In the video, I show how to use two rolling papers stuck together to make it easier to roll a joint, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be smoking better with just one (better weed to paper […]
Where Have All the Hippies Gone?
And by that I mean…WTF happened to me and Felicity, considering our last post here was like six weeks ago? Well. We’ve been OK, but somehow, one of the myriad pieces of baling wire holding our website together seemed to have failed or gone crazy or whatever. Even though we could all keep visiting the website, […]
Granny Storm Crow’s Medical Marijuana List January 2015
Granny Storm Crow tirelessly works compiling what we’ve called “the world’s most authoritative and complete collection of links to scholarly research and other articles about the medical effects of cannabis.” The complete collection is now over 2,000 pages! The “new” section (articles from 2010 on) by itself is over 700 pages, and we’re quite gratified that Granny […]
Google To Censor Anti-Marijuana Propaganda
OK, that’s not exactly what the article says. But according to New Scientist, Google is going to stop ranking websites by their popularity (in terms of the number of links they have going to them), and start paying more attention to whether they are loaded with false information. So the likely end result is that government […]
Making Frankenstein Oil With the Magical Butter Machine
My dear wife Felicity has been having more than the usual amount of trouble sleeping lately. Although her daytime cannabinoid requirements have not changed (one or two capsules still get her through the day), she’s been needing higher doses at night due to higher amounts of stress. Since we generally make our capsules fairly “light”, […]
Yet Another Out-Of-Context Obama Quote
Today, President Obama made a stirring plea to the Supreme Court, quoted here on Twitter: Obama on SCOTUS: “My hope is that they go ahead and recognize what the majority of the american people now recognize” — Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) January 22, 2015 The only “gotcha” is that he was speaking about legal same-sex marriage, […]
Mario Cuomo Leaves Us With a Great Quote
Mario Cuomo, three-term former governor of New York, died today. Because NY state governors are sworn in on New Year’s Day, it was the same day his son, Andrew Cuomo, was sworn in for his second term as governor. But I’m writing here about this extraordinary quote I found in an article about him: “Given […]
ProTip: Get Your Emerald Cup Tickets in Advance
Last year, Felicity and I went to our first Emerald Cup and we loved it. It’s a different vibe than the High Times events; a lot more cultivation-oriented, lots of good medical information, and plenty of music! In fact, we kind of pooped out afterwards because we overdid it. This year, we’re staying overnight to […]
