The best hydro out there can be had for about $85-$125 a quarter, which is seven grams. How they come up with these values is beyond me.

For $3625, you get ten pounds of Mexican brick weed.

The people up the coast have seen the price drop from $6000 lb to 2-2.5 with the medicinal legalization and fear full legalization would screw them even more. Plus losing the Mendo/Humboldt outlaw chic.

fuck blow

fuck Bermuda

fuck the idea that 6 grams of kush is worth $3,625



"These are two ladies that have come away on a vacation. They admit to bringing in a small amount of marijuana with them for their own purposes. They did not even bring it ashore and had it with them in the cabin."


sound like people I'd have no prob being among.


And I DO understand bringing the stun-gun, but prob unnecessary.


what a sad story.

damn

Sheeitt, I 've been arrested for posession of half a joint. The price of that half a doob probably equals that of the 6 odd grams they were caught with after all was said and done on my end.

Fucking cops thought they had busted Escobar or something. Had about eight of them all staring at a half a joint on the hood of their unmarked car. Good work guys, major bust.

$1800/lb Cdn this side of the border.

About $180/oz for good stuff, and up to $250 for the great stuff.

Tax on a 5 $ pound will be nill. but when its counted up it will be Hugh for the tax base.

Then you have to subtract the cost for prisons on bullshit incrustations

Its a win win deal

$400 an ounce on the east coast for some nice sticky is what I hear the price is now.

Everytime I read a news story that quotes the "street value" I crack up laughing, it's always about 10 times the actual.
Gotta make folks feel like the billions and billions that have been pissed away on the "war on drugs" is worthwhile I guess.

Usually a three finger for good stuff. You could get four, but that would be the lowest grade Mexican stuff.

There's a watch in my pocket and its hands are broken.
The face is blank but the gears are turning.
Confusion is a fundamental state of mind.
It doesn't really matter what I'm figuring out.
I'm guaranteed to wind up in a state of doubt
And sanity is a full-time job
In a world that is always changing,
And sanity is a state of mind
That you believe in, sanity.
There's a shadow on the wall where the paint is peeling.
My body's moving forward but my mind is reeling.
Depression is a fundamental state of mind.
It doesn't really matter how my day has turned out.
I always end up living in this world of doubt
And sanity is a full-time job
In a world that is always changing,
And sanity will make you strong
If you believe in sanity.
And sanity is a full-time job
In a world that is always changing,
And sanity is a state of mind
That you believe in, sanity

Can someone explain to me, what a "lid" is? I've only heard that in a Cheech & Chong movie, before reading it here tonight.

I'm not that young and the term "LID" makes no sense to me in weights and measures.

The term 'lid' of marijuana goes back to the 60's. Back then you could buy a 'lid' or a 'can' of pot. The can was aproximatley 1 oz, the lid was1/8 oz. The term came from the practice of breaking up a brick (a kilo or later a key) of tightly packed marjijuana and storing and selling it in Price Albert tobacco cans. A can held aproximatley one ounce. the lid would hold aproximatley1/8 oz. No one weighed it really, it was all done by eye. By the time I was in high school in the early 70's the term can had gone away and the term lid referred to an ounce. The term nickel or dime bag was still used in the 70s too. But by that time the amount of pot in the nickel ($5) or dime ($10) would vary - though the price was still $5 or $10. But if you bought a 'baggie', it would contain an ounce and the price would vary. In the 60's a bag was a bag was a can was an ounce and the price for the ounce was 5 or 10 depending on quality. I don't know if there were 7 dollar bags or 8 dollar bags. Yeah so o buy some okay.
