We are in the Coy W. Waller Laboratory Complex on the campus of the University of Mississippi, getting a look at the only legal marijuana farm and production facility in the United States. This is the government's "cannabis drug repository."

This is the government's stash.

****ing road trip to the U of M. who's with me? I'll bring the zig zags and cases of twinkies

irnoic that the US can muscle into the weed growing business that they alone are exempt from any criminality. they're a freakin monopoly

also CNN/federal officials = stupidly misinformed:

The marijuana coming across the southwest border, traditionally a source of low-potency drugs, has increased in strength from a median potency of 4.8 percent in 2003 to 7.3 percent in 2007.

As a consequence, inexperienced or young marijuana users may be more prone to overdose, federal officials say

please, you cannot overdose on marijuana. you'd literally would have to smoke until you died and even then the cause of death would be "out of breath syndrome"

Wtf is "median potency"?

I love how they make up an entire unit of measure to prove their point...

Who the **** buys mexi buds anyway?
 
An overdose doesn't have to mean a health risk, it can also mean that the user experienced a much greater dose than intended - which in itself could be dangerous when - you know, driving after 'just one joint' when one joint is three times more powerful than you expected.

over dose


but anyway, this is bullshit. Monkey see, monkey doo. ...or is that do?


I'm gonna grow some crack.

It works when taken literally-semantically, but the implication is that a medical overdose is possible and will kill you.

But yeah it's all bullshit, no sense getting ourselves worked up too much over this word.
 
There are also some people who are legally allowed to smoke marijuana, and get rations from the government. Why are these people not considered terrorists in their own war on drugs?
 
Rizzla > your crappy zigzags.

rizla is too thin; burns too quickly, adhesive doesnt always work as advertised. zig zag while not the best is consitant ..but only the white pack, the other colours are either too thick, too thin or too crappy

I've tried rice paper in jamiaca and while it was easily 3 times the size of rizla or zig zag it stil held up well
 
I never really rolled my weed (well I did smoke the occasional blunt) because I only smoked chronic, always seemed like a waste to roll it.
 
so what do you use?pipe? vaporizer? rolling just seems the easiest way to go about it

It's true, it doesn't always stick but I just love the almost-transparent paper. :D
 
there's a new zig zag on the market. it's as translucent as rizla. comes in a shiny metallic looking pack. it burns a little faster than white pack zigs
 
I dont get the same effect from a pipe/bong. in fact the only comparable device I've ever used that works as well as a joint is the Volcano vaporizer- the creme de la creme of vaporizers ($600+)
 
Really? A decent bong or bubbler would **** me up way more than a joint ever could. Blunts were fun, but having to put in a gram of chronic for a single blunt was a bit ridiculous when you're paying $50 an 8th.
 
omg ****ing god you're paying $50 for 1/8th an ounce? shit that costs me half that. I'm paying $220 an ounce for really good BC hydro
 
Stern, I think we need to go in to business together. For dank here even if you're buying a quater pound you are still paying $250 an oz for okay chronic. If you are just buying 8ths or quads you'll be paying $400, some even try to tax on top of that.
 
the border might be a problem ...goddam terr'sts making it difficult to smuggle pot across the border
 
CptStern, your kids has the best dad in the world.

We just have to be creative. Any gay people here interested in this venture?

I've seen some ****ed up parents that never smoked pot. I've seen some great parents that did. I'm not sure I get your point?

damn we should hire goatse ..easily stick a dozen pounds of the stuff in there


also just to clear up any misconceptions; not that I have to justify anything to anyone

a. I never smoke around my kids, ever
b. I am never high around my kids, ever
c. I only do it after they've gone to sleep
d. I am really careful to never mention anything around the subject and when the time comes I will consul them to NOT use it or anything else that might inhibit them in any wayuntil they are good and ready
 
I used to have a connect for $20 quarters of some hypersonic shit. I'm talking Desert Storm.

Things will never be that good again in my lifetime, so, thanks big brother, you faggit!

Now I can't afford to relieve considerable mental and physical pain with a plant that just eats water and dirt. What the **** kind of world is this.

The terrorists? The terrorists won when my weed is $65 a quarter. Forget that, I don't negotiate with extortionists.

****in lol, you dont know what a median is?

add all the statistic instances in a size ordered row, then find the middle

1 1 3 3 5 6 29 30 49

5 is the median number in the above sequence

i have no idea how they do that with marijuana potencies however
 
omg ****ing god you're paying $50 for 1/8th an ounce? shit that costs me half that. I'm paying $220 an ounce for really good BC hydro

hahaha 220 for ONE ounce?

i get 5 grams, which is more than an ounce for 50 bucks here.. and that's the good stuff, purple haze etc.. gotta know the right folks
 
As I understood it, median is just a fancy way of saying average THC concentration, but based on what CrazyHarij says, it's not.

5 grams is barely 1/6th of an ounce (28 grams)...
 
i would imagine they chart it like this:
they have like 10 joints or something.. measure the potency of each joint.. put them in order by potency, and pick the middle.

They probably think it's a better way to work out numbers like these when you only have a tiny amount to compare, with all the joints out there.

oh, goes to show how good my english unit skills are.. i meant 1/8th. so I pay 280 bucks for an ounce. nice one stern, you old hippie! but i get my coke for free :afro: also acid for really cheap.
 
Well next time I'm in Sweden I'm coming to your place.
 
Is it just me or is there anyone else here that doesn't do drugs?
 
Drugs aren't bad, drug abuse and drug addiction are.

Imagine you've just had both your legs cut off. Enjoy your pain, because morphine is naughty.

Don't trip, I passed 4th grade math, I know what a median is.

Your last bit though is exactly what I was saying. I could say 12 is the median potency for the last cigarette I smoked, and it really doesn't mean shit. I just made up a unit of measure.
 
it was a preemptive strike. I heard sabre rattling in the lobby.
