An Ode To Durban Poison
I love me a good sativa. I love starting my day – even before that first sip of coffee – with a hit of something that will fill my head with focus. That’s what sativas do for me. Especially the first hit of the morning. Coffee jolts one awake. The caffeine buzz is like pure…

An Ode To Waking And Baking
Two facts: I have never been busier in my entire life AND I have never been more “stoned” in my entire life. Those facts don’t contradict each other. Actually, they complement each other. Pot and productivity go hand in hand. It’s hard to describe to people who are fearful of pot that it’s not just…

A Cannabis Consumer Review: Canndescent Charge (No 514)
It was absolutely inevitable that the instant cannabis became legal, it also would become corporate. There’s a staggering amount of money to be made. What more do we need to say? To be fair though, there’s really no “middle way” to come in from the cold. The whole idea of calling it “cannabis” instead of…

The Joys Of Waking & Baking
It ain’t the cannabis talking — I’m far more productive and focused after a couple of hits of sativa. These days, my morning go-to’s are Willy Wonka, Alaskan Thunderfuck, Strawberry Diesel and Durban Poison. I like variety, ya see. I also like the way different strains work inside my brain. Yeah, they’re all variations on…

Dear Legal Cannabis Business: Here’s What I’d Like You To Be When You Grow Up
Legal Cannabis is here and it is not going away. All those dire predictions of society’s collapse? Ummmm, not quite. Just the opposite actually. As the coronavirus pandemic proves to us every day, some people can’t be dragged kicking & screaming to a good idea even if that good idea could save their life. Full…

The Remarkable Pleasure Of Coffee & Cannabis
I love mornings. I didn’t used to love them but these days my day doesn’t so much “start” as spark to life. My morning routine feels a lot like the lights suddenly going on inside a factory. That’s the caffeine in the coffee of course but even more than that? It’s the cannabis. I hope…

An Ode To The Civilizing Influence Of Cannabis
As I write this, I’m waiting for the final bowl of my nighttime meds (I started with Skywalker then finished with a bowl of Godfather with a little Afghani sprinkled on top. In a few minutes the combined effects of those strains should fuse into a feeling of delicious, creamy sleepiness that I can surrender…

It’s CRIMINAL That Cannabis Was Ever Criminalized
I believe — actual life experience being my data set — that my life is better in myriad ways with cannabis IN it than WITHOUT it. If I separate my personal experience with cannabis from cannabis’ story here in America (its demonization and prohibition for entirely racist reasons), I see a natural product — minimally…

My Cannabis Journey: How THC Is Saving My Life Every Day
Okay — that’s probably hyperbole. I could remove THC from my life and continue living exactly as I am. But, because I live in California, I have a choice — and I choose to use cannabis for a boatload of very good reasons. I turned to cannabis as a last resort. I wasn’t a big…

Most Marijuana Research Is BULLSHIT
Durban Poison is our Friend. I am biased as hell. Yessirree. I am an out-and-out advocate for MARIJUANA. More transparency — I now write a weekly column (for $) at marijuana.com — and I urge you to check them out — they’re now THE site to go-to for real news about marijuana. More transparency —…
