The WSJ has put 4/20 on the front page of their paper!!!

April 20 marks a high holiday for marijuana enthusiasts, who have long used "420" as code for cannabis and who celebrate the date's appearance on the calendar—on April 20, or 4/20—with concerts, stoner-film marathons and controlled substances.
Chris Hondros/Getty Images A haze of marijuana smoke loomed over a crowd of thousands during a 'smoke out' at the University of Colorado, Boulder on April 20, 2010.



This year, with the date falling on a Friday, marketers are trying to get in on the buzz. Marijuana advocates say the commercialization just proves that pot is gaining mainstream acceptance; there were some 17.4 million users in 2010, up from 14.4 million in 2007, according to government data. But many are foggy on the date's origins.

Glad you liked it. I have to tell you I thought I'd never live to see the day that 4/20 would be on the front page of the Journal.

When I went to the bank the teller's were talking to a Subway employee making a deposit and she said they are making just a few extra cookies for today. lol.

I guess it's alright for them to be cool with it now since it's becoming more socially acceptable to smoke it and be cool with weed now. I just hate dumb people like that. They like and hate what society likes and hates. I think it's pathetic honestly. But this is the only way it's getting to get legal though. The more people that like it, the easier it is to legalize it.
