Around here when someone has pot or whatever else they ask people on the street if they'd like to buy a pair of speakers.  I have no idea why, but once when I was in the market for speakers I got into the back of this dude's van and all he had for sale was pot and some pills and stuff.  Hopefully whoever found his body just assumed it was a drug deal gone bad.

The moral: Do not bait-and-switch Jough after he's had one of those NutriGrain bars.

I remember hearing about a Popeye's or KFC where the drive through sold pot under the name of "extra biscuits." It's pretty obvious how they got caught.

Yeah, that was local around here wasn't it? And not too far off. I remember this because I firmly believe that Popeye's biscuits are a narcotic in and of themselves, that is until their half life fo ten minutes expires and they become doughbricks.

My favorite was a Taco Bell in Berkeley that sold crank under the name "chilito with double extra sour cream".

Also, $150 for a half-o... eh, wholesale I suppose. $180 seems more like retail for that kind of quantity. Those of you quoting these insanely low prices of yours either were smoking in the 70s or have never had anything but incredibly shitty mexican brown weed, apparently.

The 80's through the early 90's, thank you very much.  And I come from Kentucky.  Green buds are our number 1 cash crop.

Sweet Jesus... now I'm glad I never got into that shit. Man, for $50 I can buy a handle of Jack Daniels that will get me about as messed-up as I'm comfortable with getting. And I don't have to worry about ordering the "super-size Happy Meal with no salt on the fries" at the local McDonald's either.

Blade? Damn, it's all 1998 up in here. That was abandoned by its deveper 2.5 years ago. It's all about the LAME baby.

As for legality, I think Fraunhoffer pretty much gave up on requiring a license fee for encoders. Although Winamp, WMP, iTunes, &c all ship with encoders now anyway so you must have legal one on your machine somewhere.


Well, this is the 400 mhz machine running a sketchy linux distro...  The machine that gets stuff done. There is no lowercase i this or Windows Media that near this particular box.

I won't try to liken my inferior compression ratio to the warm sound of a 1960 Fender Bassman, but I do think it says something that I got my MP3 encoder back when such things came from mirror sites in Croatia and pissed off The Man right from your command line. (Mostly it says, why don't I use Ogg Vorbis yet? But see, I am retro geek, or something. So bladeenc is a tool with historical significance, like an M1 Garand for home defense.)

Anyway, Pierced Lemur's Sample One, Now with slightly more madness.

One thing I do not have is a single musical bone in my body, despite my Von Trapp Family upbringing... I can only guess at what a fast and heart-maddened tempo should be. Ah well.

one hundred and fifty dollars for a 1/2 oz? damn. That's a good price.


I used to buy a quarter pound for 125.

Today I was listening to 30 Days in the Hole.  They basically mention every drug known to man and apparently if you get caught the worst that'll happen is you'll spend a few weeks in prison.  Today it's more like 30 years in the hole right...  Anyway, most of my drug consumption occured between the years of '78 and '85.  I only paid as little as 10 for an oz once and I quit because the price had risen to the outrageous sum of 30 per qtr.  I see the trend of heavy inflation has continued unabated ever since.  I don't recall there being as much useage of code back then either because no one would fuck with you over weed.  Hell we used to smoke it in movie houses with the cops 20 feet away.    And at concerts, forget about it, they would have to arrest the whole audience and the band as well.

However, in defense of todays weed it's a total skull fuck over weed of yesteryear.  Potency levels something like 1000 percent higher than back in my day.

So I guess it's a trade off.  Nowadays you have to pay through the nose and risk spending a goodly portion of your short life incarcerated, but the shit is so good it'll rewire your brain.

Jesus, I had this exact same conversation last night.

Me: Hey, that message you sent me, was that about....praying to Jah?
Dealer who is also my RA: ...What? No.
Me: Oh, okay, what's up?
DWIAMRA: I was wondering if you needed any....trees.
Me:..t...trees?

Bozack, I have never had any real desire to consume mind-altering substances, but this almost makes me change my mind. Hell, I wish I had someone around to offer me... trees.
