I had work last night from 11pm till 5am (I work as a bar tender) and I walked home around 5:30am, just as the sun was coming up. It took me about half an hour. I walked through the main street of town and out to a more suburb-y area whereupon I thought to myself "This is boring. I should roll a joint and that will make my walk easier, better and more fun." So I sat down under a street light cos it was still too dark to see properly and rolled myself a joint. One of my favourite things about New Zealand and its smoking culture is that a lot of people roll their own cigarettes from pouches of tobacco and so when someone has a "rollie" instead of a "taylie". And so when I was walking down the street with my joint, it just looked like I had a cigarette (not that there were that many people to see me). In order to get home though, I have to walk through a tunnel which is exclusively for buses. There is no pedastrian walkway or anything. I only walk through it between about 3 and 5:30am cos thats when I can guarantee that there aren't any buses coming through (though there are niches to hide in on the way through). Also, there are only lights in the first 10 metres at either end - the middle of the tunnel is pitch black. So I walked through there at 6am this morning, stoned off my face, half laughing half actually thinking I was about to die... it was great.
You should do it more often. You tell good stories. Perhaps you're in line to be the next rangerdanger, one day.
when i lived in spain, i would go to the city´s big park area to smoke hash joints. there were times when i would just sit on a park bench in a somewhat secluded part and roll it right out in the open. families would be walking by, no problem. it´s one of those things that you´re keeping to yourself, so what´s the harm? of course, it IS still illegal, but not that big of a deal. it´s not like in the US where someone like your neighbor would actively call the cops on you because they smell weed smoke. when i came back to the US after living there, i did the same thing where i smoked a spliff while walking down the main street in the city where i live. it is a pretty cool and liberating feeling.
I wish I had papers. I don't like walking down a street smoking a bowl. Haha... what's funny is that when I was in high school, a friend of mine would have a large slurpee cup and a 20 oz. in it and carry it around in his jacket as a gravity bong/bucket while walking around this park... it's actually a reservoir with trails that go around it. We just go hiking and toke a gravity bong because you can walk for twenty miles on it. AT kicks ass too. Take the loop in Staunton, VA to Humpback Rocks... I know there's better places, but I first went there when I was nine or ten and I've always had an attachment to the place. Perfect place to toke some ciggaweeds while listening to bluegrass (reppin the YMSB) on your now-outdated Sony Walkman after hiking on the Appalachian Trail. http://myspace.com/yondermountainstringband
haha thanks guys. I'll post more of my random stoner experiences when/if they happen. I love smoking in public.
