New here - old everywhere else...

[H.A.F.]

Child of the 70's and 80's. Smoked, bought and sold in High school, joined the service because I knew jail was the most likely other option.

Played on a band in school, mostly for weed and chicks Lots of covers.

I retired with 70% disability, an extra paycheck, and a "refill as needed" opioid scrip from the VA... Didn't like living in jello and started smoking again. Never looked back.

Welcome home. Glad you chose this plant over government pushed opioids.

My childhood bud hit the Navy in about '77 cus he got popped and the judge said "Jail or sail?" He was all strung out on dilaudid when he went in....and they sent him too fuckin Thailand. He sent me a pic of him with about 5 hookers and a huge pile of smack. When he got out he was still over the top...with drinking mostly...but he had the scripts and all that....then i lost touch with him......and fast forward 30 years...he passed away....never found an obit or anything else...so i'm 99.9% sure the "refill as needed" VA schtick finally got him.

Glad yer here and glad you jumped off the train.....

I grew up on Sabbath, Zeppelin, Rush, AC/DC, Judas Priest and the like. DISCO SUCKS!!!

Metallica and Pantera were probably the end of me liking new bands from that 'era' of metal. The rest were mostly copycats that were average at best. High School was in the 80's so there was also the hair-band influence like Def Leppard, Scorpions, the reinvention of Ozzy with Randy Rhoads, Van Halen, even Van Hagar...

Grew up watching Vietnam every night, stoned since the seventies, assassination on the nightly Huntley/Brinkley news. Really dating myself now.

Black Sabbath was mandatory in my circle. Everyone HAF mentioned.

That was on the tube when I was in elementary school. First real memory from TV was the moon landing. Just remember mom saying watch this, it's important. Not much else about it.

I'd be interested in how your Bruce Banner turns out. I only have a hybrid, and it was some of my best. Hope you slay those.

I have some twisted now from my cured supply. It is what I would classify as "Good Smoke!" LOL It's a nice even daily-buzz if you're into that. I have a large stash of Northern Lights, and I think both are similar in the "clean buzz" thing. If you like being high without the dry eyes, cotton mouth, or whatever other ill effects you might get from Joe on the corner's "dank" - it's the bomb

Graduated in 1980, 70's and 80's were the best times. And the best weed! lol
Oh yea, welcome to the forum. You will like this group of members. Best cannabis forum on the net! Thanks to Uncle Heisen, Main Cola and the rest for creating this forum. There are quite a few "secret experts" in the field of cannabis cultivation in these threads lingering and lurking. lol

I'm retired, a stoner, and love side projects. I was inspired by a poet on here that does smoke reports, and decided it was something I should get better at since I run testers.
