What is a GiftGang? Are they a gang? An organization? A party? Actually it’s none of that or anything you might think it is… It’s simply an idea that turned into a hashtag that many have gotten behind in opposition to the tyranny of CT HB5329. The tyranny of HB5329?!? Section 2 of this bill, simply put, is a law that doesn’t protect anyone except commercial interest. … [Read more...] about #GiftGang

Everyone Says It’s Organic
There are a lot of claims aimed at products being organic these days. What does USDA Organic Certification actually mean to the consumer?

#LegalizeNepal
I recently had the opportunity of speaking with Heman Bikram Shahi. He had recently given me one of his #LegalizeNepal t-shirts. On the shirt were many old school pics from back in the 60s. I knew some of their history, especially with hash. But this shirt was telling me so much more than I knew. I had to get this guy on the phone to talk more about it. Could I have just looked … [Read more...] about #LegalizeNepal
No Backsies! #GiftGang
Back on July 1st 2021, after literally a decade fighting CT finally went legal with cannabis. It was awesome. We all sang, danced, cheered, and toked in celebration of this event. Patients could finally grow their own medicine and have an ability to share with others. But now the state is looking to take it all back and add criminal charges for not abiding to the new potential … [Read more...] about No Backsies! #GiftGang
No gifts?
What sort of Mickey Mouse, ironfisted type organization would want to ruin Christmas, birthdays, and anniversaries? And while they’re at it, they want to kill a few charities too. And what about patients who can’t afford their meds? What’s being created isn’t legalization, it’s prohibition with extra steps. I’d like to bring attention to CT Raised Bill 5329. Lines 260 … [Read more...] about No gifts?
“Keep the faith”
Image from Oaksterdam University “Keep the faith.” Is what he always said when talking about the cannabis movement. I have to give praise to Richard Lee… The man, the myth, the legend. Richard Lee is a guy who doesn’t get talked about much anymore… Who is he? Why would you care who he is? Well, I’ll tell you why. Because he started the conversation. That’s why. It’s that … [Read more...] about “Keep the faith”
Raised Limits… The Riddles of The Sphinx
Hi kids, let’s put on our thinking caps and test our skills of inquiry. Riddle me this Batman… What raises a ceiling yet can’t fill the room? The CTMMP. Patients with an allotment of 2.5 oz were increased to 3oz and now again to 3.5oz. for the remainder of their certification. However a patient may NOT purchase more than 2.5oz at any one time. How is one allowed 3.5 but can … [Read more...] about Raised Limits… The Riddles of The Sphinx
Happy Borg
I once described the HighBazaar event as being hosted in Gargamel’s castle with Ogres and Hempirial guards. But something happened… The snow came and the wind blew. It knocked down a tent that had once hosted a couple dozen exhibitors and will not be replaced. With the happy tents all gone now, only it’s true face remains. That cube on the hill looks like The Borg. But it isn’t … [Read more...] about Happy Borg
