It seems like it was just yesterday that I wrote an article on The 420 Times about how great it was that the U.S. Government was starting to publicly acknowledge some of the benefits of cannabis (a.k.a. medical marijuana). Oh, wait…it was just yesterday. In an amazing, almost real-time drama, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), mentioned prominently […]
OK, I didn’t write up Uncle Buck’s last cooking class at Magnolia Wellness because he made pizza and I got pied. But that’s no excuse, really…I always get a bit pied after his classes. I just make sure to do most of my tasting toward the end of his class now 🙂 I can’t help […]
Exhibit A: That’s right.

You know how everyone seems to say either, “Marijuana is bad” or “Marijuana is good”? You know how some people say, “People can get paranoid from smoking pot” or “Medical marijuana helps people with paranoia, anxiety, and depression”? You know how one person can say, “I got really screwed up after smoking weed and passed […]
