Marijuana T Shirt -- An Ode to Cannabis T-Shirt Culture

Once, we created and sold a marijuana t shirt at a reggae festival. It was a really nice marijuana t shirt. We really loved the design on the front of it. The colors of the marijuana t shirt were really vibrant. There were many nice things all over the fair-grounds. A lot of different types of clothing vendors, body paints, jewelry and food. So many nifty things to stop and take a look at but the marijuana t-shirt was by far our favorite, which is why we have them here to sell.  A little strapped for cash, we decided against bringing too many of the marijuana t shirts and continued on our way to enjoy the music. On the main stage, Heavy Weight Dub Champion was playing. (A Proustian moment, indeed.)

The music was amazing; it made the body move. There were beautiful girls dancing everywhere. Soon the thought of that marijuana t-shirt began to creep back into mind. We listened to a few more songs. We danced and had a great time. The band was awesome and as their set closed up, we left in search of that marijuana t shirt.

Through the droves of people, we walked across the fair grounds. Past the food vendors and passed the trinkets we did not need. After a little walk we found ourselves back at the exact merchandise booth at which I had first spotted the marijuana tshirt. We gave the vendor the money and told him our size. He came back with the marijuana t shirt and my change. We just couldn’t wait to wear my marijuana t shirt. We walked off the beaten path a little and changed our shirt. We made our way back to the stage just in time to catch the next act.

On the second stage was Don Carlos: Eek-a-Mouse on the first stage. We almost couldn't decide which to watch. As we pondered which band we would watch my marijuana t shirt began to itch our skin. Man, "we hate the feeling of a new shirt," we thought. We almost couldn't wait to get home and wash our marijuana t shirt. We proceeded to the first stage to watch Eek-a-mouse. In slight discomfort, we watched the set – another great show. Feeling really good with the events of the day, we headed on home when the music stopped. With our marijuana t-shirt and happy memories we returned to our house. We sat down at our computer, turned on the i-tunes and took off our marijuana t shirt. We turned out the lights and went to sleep.  Dreams of the marijuana t shirt danced in our heads, slowly evaporating off in our sub-conscious like the wispy contrails of a roach in its final moments of use.

Los Angeles Marijuana Dispensaries Raided by Federal Authorities

Earlier this month (August 2009) a handful of medical marijuana dispensaries were raided in Los Angeles in dramatic fashion despite earlier assurances from the U.S. Attorney General that such raids would no longer take place in the Obama administration. 

The Huffington Post's Anthony Citrano lays out the facts of the raids succinctly in a recent blog post.  Says Citrano: "

In February, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said that the DEA would no longer raid dispensaries that are operating in accordance with state law. Holder later said "our focus will be on people, organizations, that are growing, cultivating substantial amounts of marijuana and doing so in a way that's inconsistent with Federal law and State law."

On August 12, a task force that included the FBI, LAPD, LASD, and DEA raided the Organica and Overland Gardens Collectives at gunpoint, in riot gear, and with air support."

In riot gear ... with air support?  This is a scary development indeed for the L.A. pot dispensary community.  First Organica and Overland ... who's next?  Will dispensaries in and around the city of Los Angeles -- operating legally -- continue to be targeted?  The next several months should no doubt tell the tale.

In the meantime, we highly recommend reading the entire HuffPo story...

The Bowl Bong - A Clever Marijuana Delivery Device

Hey kids... Get a load of the new bowl bong. It's just hit the streets and it’s sweeping over the European market. The bowl bong is the latest scientific development in bong technology. By allowing the slider piece to come off the far end of the bowl, its manufacturers have made the bowl bong 40 percent more effective than a regular bong.

While the bowl bong was in its early test phases critics laughed. Now with over 1 million bowl bongs sold, we would have to believe that Mr. R.J. McWaters, creator and designer of the bowl bong, is laughing now. He said he first had the idea for the bowl bong way back in high school. He said he was just getting so tired of having to clean out the bowl after every use. Twenty-five years later his bowl bong is a revolution is bong technology.

Mr. RJ McWaters first started developing prototypes of his "bowl bong" 10 years ago, in 1999. "It wasn't easy he said but I think I've got it now." was the first words he spoke before the final test run and showcasing of his product. The bowl bong has revolutionized the way people smoke. Little is known about the bowl bong in the United States where it has been slow to catch on.

Analysts think that its popularity overseas will soon make the bowl bong a huge success in the U.S. markets. "People are slow to accept certain new things, they will catch onto it," top P.R. Manager for the bowl bong said. Riding its success RJ McWaters and his company Bowl Bong Inc. have been looking into a few new products. The cup tank and drop pool, are just a couple of the ideas Mr. McWaters has planned for us. Hopefully the bowl bong will continue to be a staple in in the homes of serious marijuana users everywhere.

With a show room floor of over a million and a half bowl bongs still in stock, now is a great time to buy. Get your bowl bong while they last, supplies are limited. With market demand climbing fast overseas, be one of the first Americans to buy your very own bowl bong. The bowl bong has been set at a reasonable market price of $79.99 U.S. currency. Once you have a bowl bong in your home you will not know how you ever lived without one. The bowl bong will definitely be coming soon to a retailer near you. Participating locations only. ;-)
