Hello Everybody,
Recently joined the community and just saying hello. I was a smoker many years ago. I favored hash, but enjoyed all varieties of MJ available. As I remember it, street cannabis knowledge was far less complicated in those days. We had $5 nickel bags, $10 dime bags, $20 half ounce, $35-$60 ounce depending on the claimed quality. Strains were not discussed as they are now. We had Mexican, Colombian, Acapulco Gold, and rarely Maui Waui or Hawaiian Sensimilla. Now I am hearing people discuss a huge variety of strains with some interesting and bizarre names. There's a lot to learn.
Anyway, for years I was completely detached from cannabis culture. Over the past few years I've had an ever increasing interest. I see MJ prohibition as a metaphor for a lot that's wrong with our modern culture and ever-increasing willingness to accept growing government power. Also, I've just been remembering a lot about who I used to be and used to want to be and this has brought me to discover some areas I'd like to take a stand, one of which involves MJ.
So I'm just trying to find like-minded potential friends, learn as much as I can, and enjoy the online community activities. All my children are out of college married with homes and lives of their own. My 2nd grandchild is due very soon. So I guess you can say I'm a "Grandpa Cannabis Sympathizer".
Sorry so long winded. Good to be here.
