I remember when,.......
Weed didn't have "names",......and it had seeds.
You called/paged the guy and MAYBE you'd hear back that day,...... You took whatever he had, even if it looked like coffee grounds. Pipes were wood, metal, or rock,....there was no glass. Rolling with "S.D. Modiano's", meant you had "green weed", and you knew how to roll. You could actually find "Fabulous Furry Freek Brothers" comics. High Times actually published an article entitled: "Cannabis Ruderalis, the NEXT smoke!!" You needed a record album cover to "clean" weed. You knew what an record album cover WAS. Everyone knew "Dave's not here maan",......you didn't have to explain it. You could always tell if there was an indoor grower in the neighborhood, because there'd be 3 street lights sawed off.

good stuff. I pulled the dust off my tommy album the other day and opened it up and there was still some green powder in the crease. I think its been twenty years since I last looked at this album. What great memories of the 80's. Rolling up a number of Meigs county home grown and listening to opera.

We used a Frisbee to role on and get the seeds out of the weed. Also I didn't know that buds weren't flat or came in a brick till the 90's...

lmao pagers
i remember pre pagers pre metric (lol fuck you grams of pot) back to the days of walking uptown (by teh train station a strip of stores) and scoring weed regularly. four finger lids, 20 fat fat joints ment the count was fair, 20 bucks was norm 10$ on fridays would get a bag of mother fucking 8th "feet weed", smelled rank as fuck, made your brain feel like had a band on it then one day, i remember so distinctly close to 30 years later, I asked dude I was cool for and had not seen in a while for a 10$ bag he came back with a scrap,said it was really good it was a gram that was the start of higher grade for alot more money it was good but i remember more the loss of those good imports than the weed i got that day somewhere between the 70's n 80's |

This is the money you could be saving if you grow your own weed

you had to wait in line at the check out counter because the person ahead of you was paying with a check.
A penny could get you a gumball. Cracker Jack had cool surprises. Ticket to the game could be had the day of the game. Bleacher seats were 5 bucks Train rides were a quarter People actually cared.

I'd go to Union Station in Washington DC to meet my grandmother and the train was pulled by a locomotive. Not really weed related but pretty old just the same.

Hello all!I remember when.... *Pack of smokes was 25 cents. *Gas was 30 cents a gallon. *Stamps were a nickel. *Minimum wage was $1.10 an hour, and that was enough! *A "lid" of smoke cost $25.00 was full of stems and seeds and when smoked you ended up with a headache. *They didn't put engines in cars sideways, and you could work on them without a computer diagnostic machine. *There was no AIDS. *They had penny candy, 5 cents, and you had candy all day. *I could ride my bike all over town without fear of getting snatched, raped or murdered. *I had to go home when the street lights came on. I suppose I could go on for hours, but that will do for now. Was it better than........I don't know, but it sure seemed simpler. Peace. |
