Quite a fun afternoon. Almost as wild as the time we drank a pitcher of beer or two with pizza for lunch. Intoxication mkes work more fun.

It would probably be wrong to mention that at the time I worked on kidney dialysis machines. Nothing live mind you so plenty of time to catch any errors before we killed someone plus we had a QC department.

I remember having to smoke a whole joint to get high. Now, just a few puffs suffice. Better on the lungs.

It's funny, too-- my learning experience was with some people younger than myself. I went at it in my normal way, and they were a bit taken aback. I was still thinking, 'what is up with these weak kiddies' when it began to hit me... I had made a terrible mistake.

lol.

I keep hearing this but in California, 40 years ago, we had some pretty good bud coming in from the coast. If people are talking about that crappy Mexican stuff that came in bricks, then yes, today's weed is much better.
