canning raspberry habanero pepper jelly today.. nomnomnom

 

Sup fellas?

I've been up at Arkwright falls reading my new book all day... really great spot with a beautiful creek and waterfall, and its all in the woods...

I just grabbed me and my girlfriend tickets to NY cannabis Harvest Fest in October... just checked the lineup again and I see they got 7 walkers which is awesome... plus pete seeger! pretty big names this year, I was surprised... event has been on hiatus since 2009, so i cannot wait to get back there!! I've heard rumors of some very special guests too

anyone in NY or surrounding states should check it out... three days of peace and music, and cannabis cannabis and more cannabis!! :2thumbsup:


how is everyone? thats very shitty about your friend rolling... 7-10 too, goddamn i couldn't imagine.. I dunno if you remember like a year, year and a half ago I posted about my partner getting popped with 6 lbs and I thought that was the end of the world... i couldn't even imagine facing 7-10..

he made the right decision to give them up though, especially if johnny law was about to seize everything.... hows his legal support? a good lawyer makes all the difference... got my friend out of a transporting controlled substance felony charge for moving 6lbs from NV to NY.. I'm convinced he'd still be in jail if it weren't for a good lawyer..

Wish him the best man, very shitty situation


edit; woah, raspberry habanero pepper jelly?? thats interesting... what do you make with that? it sounds pretty good... the combination of spicy habanero and sweet raspberry sounds quite tasty

 

thanks brother...i do remember that story....unfortunately my buddy was popped with the ontario topdog of a world wide club that the popo no likey.....they were playing hardball....gangsterism charges pending

i take great solace in the fact that i was smart enough to not become entangled in that web...i couldnt even come close to keeping up with that crowd .....

...friends would cut out a way too big line and i would break it into 5 or 6 lines....crazy motherfuckers...i dont know how any of them are still alive

Most types of drug tests fail to detect alcohol abuse – the most commonly abused substance among Americans – and are most likely to detect marijuana use since the active ingredient in marijuana stays in the body’s system longer than any other illicit substance. Therefore, drug tests often fail to identify people who are using more powerful, more addictive and more dangerous drugs like methamphetamine or cocaine, which exit the body’s system in a matter of hours or days. If you really want to deal with the problem of addiction, provide treatment on demand,” Wexler offered.

Welllll it’s that day again Taylor Gang, when we ask you about the smoke screens preventing us from progressing as a nation of level headed individuals. the new congress has stuck it’s head up it’s ass more than any freshman class that we can remember from recent memory. Can you imagine that now they want mandatory drug testing for anyone receiving public assistance ?
What kinda brownies are they baking up in that capital cafeteria ? Damn.. check this out and then we’ll continue to the response
Welfare Drug Testing Bills Introduced in Four States

With this year’s state legislative season barely under way, bills have been introduced in four states — Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, and Oregon — to require drug testing for people receiving public assistance. And in a novel twist, a bill in Indiana would require unemployment recipients to declare they are not using illegal drugs and threatens them with up to three years in prison for perjury if they are found to be using them.
But while such bills may be popular with politicians of a certain stripe, they don’t find much support among professionals in the field. Groups that have lined up against such bills include the American Public Health Association, the National Association of Social Workers, the National Association of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, the Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs, the Center for Addiction and Mental Health, the National Health Law Project, the National Association on Alcohol, Drugs and Disability, National Advocates for Pregnant Women, the National Black Women’s Health Project, the Legal Action Center, the National Welfare Rights Union, the Youth Law Center, the Juvenile Law Center, and the National Coalition for Child Protection Reform.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which successfully litigated against Michigan’s welfare drug testing law, has also come down strongly against welfare drug testing. Such laws are “scientifically, fiscally, and constitutionally unsound,” in the ACLU’s opinion. The group cites studies showing welfare recipients are no more likely to use drugs than the rest of the population and that 70% of illicit drug users are employed. It also cites research showing that drug testing is an expensive, but ineffective way to uncover drug abuse. (Full citations and more information are available at the ACLU link above.)
But the kicker for the ACLU is the unconstitutionality of warrantless drug testing by the state, as determined by the US 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in the Michigan case. Michigan was the only state to actually implement a welfare drug testing program, but the appeals court found that the program violated the Fourth Amendment’s provision barring unreasonable searches.
The persistence of such attempts is drawing concern from the drug reform community as well. Given the fiscal pressures facing the states, legislators could be even more susceptible to pseudo-populist demagoguery than usual.
“I am quite concerned that recurring legislative proposals to require drug testing of welfare and/or unemployment applicants and beneficiaries will gain new momentum with the budget crises confronting so many states, and also in Congress,” said Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance (DPA). “The proposals are mean-spirited, counter-productive and will ultimately cost much more than they save by depriving needy Americans of access to benefits. DPA will do all it can to ensure that these proposals do not become law.”
“These kinds of laws aren’t going to stop someone who is addicted from being addicted,” said Richard Wexler, executive director of the National Coalition for Child Protection Reform. “They’re just going to drive them further away from getting any kind of help. Also, it is often poverty that causes the stress that helps create addiction. If you make someone poorer, you just deepen that despair,” he pointed out.
“If you really want to deal with the problem of addiction, provide treatment on demand,” Wexler offered. “And if people are worried that not everyone will take advantage of it, let’s put that to the test. Make drug treatment immediately available and see if the claim that people will turn it down has any merit .”

I don't know how I feel about this one.. If I'm paying for YOU because YOU don't have a job... I think the last thing you should be doing while you're looking for a job is sitting around getting high or drunk.. your funds are limited.. meaning you need to live within your means.. which means. drugs.. whether its alcohol or mj.. is not a NEED.. it's a want.. food.. clothing.. housing.. are all NEEDS and these are the things your tax payer funded income should be spent on

 

Totally not cool...whats to say billy had a toke off a free doobie over at my house...why should he then be cut off welfare?....

..how about if he gets ruffued at a a party...someone puts e in his drink the night before testing?....without ''absolutes'' there can not be a law like this and also be a fair law

all it will do is get desperate people cut off welfare so that they can then jail them in a ''for profit'' institution when they hold up a bodega for milk to feed the rugrats


lol...soon as i saw those lips i thought ''he never posts the stones''

thanks brother..

 

I was cleaning my room just now... and found this decent size nug that i dropped one night, probably a month ago, when i was really really baked and i couldn't find it anywhere! haha i haven't smoked in 11 days now, this little bastard almost ruined my streak lol

It's so awesome how i found it though! i completely forgot about it even... explains why my rooms been smelling like weed all the time though

 

I gotta clean my room got clothes all over the floor

 

idk,, you can make alcohol and cannabis at home. who needs to pay for anything really when too, your friends are getting you high.. que rolling..

you can not drug test for alcohol. they do have a test that rubbed on the skin to detect alcohol use in a 24hr time frame.. Anywhere Ive worked always been the jagoffs that go out drinking on fri, sat, sun, to come to work mon, to have everyone feel sorry for them and their losing football team.. who wants to work in that kind of environment?..

 

I work in an environment that doesn't drug test.. so allows me to be high.. hungover.. but also get fucked over and have to cover a co-workers shift because he got wasted, ate mushrooms and decided to give cars the middle finger until he was arrested and thrown in detox.. so what im trying to say is I have nothing to say

 

Every company i ever worked for drug tested every month or two back when i had a job
