Unashamedly celebrating cannabis
1. Bettering America’s Reputation The US has not to be fair had a great reputation around the world lately. The reputation it has earned under the Bush administration is one of a country that likes to throw its weight around and attack. What better way to turn this around by doing something good for its … Read more
See also the World Chart of Cannabis Use. I came across this wonderful map at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime in their very interesting Cannabis Market PDF. The darker red areas show where cannabis smokers (or as they call it ‘level of abuse’) are more than 8% of the population. The data … Read more
I think I could be a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to smoking, in the UK at least. 20 Bensons and a packet of silver King Size Rizla is the order of the day for me. I couldn’t always roll my own though. When I first started off I used one of the … Read more
Congratulations to the West Yorkshire Police for breaking down poor Colin Rowe’s workshop door in Huddersfield. Their “intelligence” was clearly not that intelligent. Instead of a cannabis factory, they found a wood burning stove. Keep up the good work chaps. It’s nice to know my taxes are being used for such useful work that the … Read more

Here’s a picture of what I have mostly been smoking this week. Not too bad – definitely some impurities in there though. Given the choice I generally buy hash as opposed to weed. I do enjoy weed – but not skunk. I still buy it from time to time though. When I want to go … Read more
I like Geneva. For many reasons – the main one being how easy it is to find a smoke. The Swiss are pretty liberal when it comes to cannabis – their forward thinking attitude has meant that in many counties (cantons) of Switzerland, cannabis is not illegal. The centre of Geneva is not huge, and … Read more
The UK government seem to be demonstrating their naivety of cannabis more and more frequently. Having changed the status of the drug wrongly, and against advice they have now released what can only be described as the most ridiculous anti-cannabis advert I have ever seen in my life. A bunch of young guys running around … Read more
