I came back from Nam in 1970, gas in Long Beach,Ca. wuz 24.9/gal. thats 25CENTS! and McDonalds had served 2 million bugars! (at 19 cents a throw,..89 cents in Hawaii) Kinda miss those prices. Jim Morrison and the Doors were playin'at the Hollywood bowl, The New Riders of the Purple Sage were just gettin hot and Janis was with the Full Tilt Boogie Band. They were HOT. Wavy Gravy was with the Pranksters. -pppeople try to put us down..just because we get around-
Well I guess it's on me now, ha ha ha, I remember seeing Willie Mosconi run 525 balls without a miss, straight pool, real deal. Going to San Diego to meet up with the "Connections" drivin into tj to get uphoshery done in leather for cheap but couldn't leave your car cause they may add straw and it would smell later on, button and tuck. buying from the farm straight cut and packed same day, pounds for 50 less for quanties. Drivin back across the border in 30 minutes' no waiting, no search, just speak clear English and thats it, VW bus loaded down. Lucky F'er I was, wouldn't even go to this side of the border today, plus as said no names now it;s whats the latest movie or star to name a strain after. Vets returning eith serious seeds and I started out by accident cleaning some in a shoe box and after collecting too many seeds/stems etc would toss the lot o'er the fence. I got a gig at a record shop yeah records vinyl stuff and when I finally came up for air and took a day off some months later the seeds over the fence had grown on their own and I noticed a shadow on my door I hadn't seen before, blocked the Sun with the edge of my hand and saw a couple ten foot plants being cared for by the occupants some ancient f'ers and I was a grower after that. Planting near oil rigs and dropping full water cans upside down to water ever few days and harvested mainly leaves as I didn't know what buds were yet, lol, The first issue of sismilla tips and a wokky grow book were out
My girlfrien got picked up for ...curfew remember that sheet? I had my super cool uncle go with me to impersonate her Dada to spring her, while I waited outside the police station I remembered the mj plant I was to take up to the oil spot, it was a felony to even have a roach then, so I paniced and took the plant out of the car and planted it at the police station, crazy but I did harvest it and my buddy took my pic and sent it in to High times after seeing my image I freaked out and got noided bad for a year seems like. Went up north to the bay area hippies were everywhere cool vibes super cool peeps, heavy drug scene there but no hard stuff for me I was the "connection now weed man, like a minor celebrity welcomed at every party I enjoyed every second of it. Wish you were there hey maybe you were, lol. Harvest festivals were the thing too I don't name drop but famous rock and r/b folks were there too. Now it's paranoid city no love no trust, and these serious sounding names double polka dot purple underground kush og you know this was smoked by Jimi right? Peace out! Bad...PS and I forgot White Castles for munchies cheap but so good, only certain areas know what I mean they are waay differnt now total crap. I'm vegan now woo hoo!

I remember when nearly all cars had the neat little vent wing windows in the front, and Reefer Roller papers were available in all kinds of flavors. Good ol' strawberry Reefer Rollers!
