1. When I was a teen in the earl 80's...

You could find all kinds of pipes,bongs and so on in my little town...Now it's impossible to find except in big cities.

3. In San Diego Co., if you use the word "bong" in a head/smoke shop

they ask you to leave the store.

8. I live in San Diego and that happened to a friend of mine!

In The Black in OB of all places.

:crazy:

There used to be head shops everywhere in the beach areas.

[maveric]

11. Wow! Asked to leave The Black?

What is this world coming to?

[slackmaster]

13. Yes, she had to go outside, sit in her car for 5 minutes then walk back in

And ask about their "water pipes".

:crazy:

4. When I was in Myrtle Beach

last week I was driving with my mother and I swear to you I saw a Baptist Church, a go-go bar, a fireworks stand and a head shop called 4:20 world (so I'm assuming it's a head shop) and then another church all within a 3 block strip. Hows that for strange!?!

My mother also told me that her father owned a head shop in the late 60's and early 70's

5. In Richmond, VA, at least a few years ago...

they sold them as "lamps", complete with a cord and socket :eyes:

[seriousstan]

6. Waterbeds and stuff used to include a small pouch of tobacco with every

pipe. With coke spoons and hitters they included a small quantity of snuff.

9. I wish they'd make quality gravity bongs.

Usually you have to MacGyver up your own.

10. I'm partial to "Full-Tank" on Church St in Burlington

and I used to LOVE walking out of that place with a huge bag with their name on it and revel in the dirty looks from the FReeper types :evilgrin:

Alas, for too long the only accurate answer to the question "What would you never hear DS1 say?" is "I hope I can find a big enough place to put all this money" :cry:
