Designer Baggies For Upscale Weed Dealers and Connoisseurs

Jan 262010

Nothing beats a good stash box, but these are pretty neat.

Although these lavish quart sized zip-top bags by designer Todd Oldham were originally intended for travel purposes, now that everyone is basically required to carry their toiletries in a fishbowl around the airport. They’re also well suited for purveyors of high end marijuana. This “Combo Pack” comes with 3 different designs: Concentric Splat, 5 Multi Houndstooth, Circus Stripe, and allows for an easy and visual way to not only categorize your stash, but keep it fresh and stylish too. After all, with the cost of designer weed easily outpacing gold, shouldn’t it be mandatory that all good smoke come packaged in designer baggies as well?

Green man has recently been a featured alter-ego of the Charlie Kelly character on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, but there’s more to Green Man!

There is also this handy guide http://www.greenmanspage.com/guides/ about growing and common knowledge about growing weed that uses this handy motif. I thought it was interesting to present some research on Greenman through History!

There is more to the legend of greenman,

presented below wikipedia’s entry on greenman check it out.

A Green Man is a sculpture, drawing, or other representation of a face surrounded by or made from leaves. Branches or vines may sprout from the nose, mouth, nostrils or other parts of the face and these shoots may bear flowers or fruit.

Commonly used as a decorative architectural ornament, Green Men are frequently found on carvings in churches and other buildings (both secular and ecclesiastical). “The Green Man” is also a popular name for English public houses and various interpretations of the name appear on inn signs, which sometimes show a full figure rather than just the head.

The Green Man motif has many variations. Found in many cultures around the world, the Green Man is often related to natural vegetative deities springing up in different cultures throughout the ages. Primarily it is interpreted as a symbol of rebirth, or “renaissance,” representing the cycle of growth each spring. Some speculate that the mythology of the Green Man developed independently in the traditions of separate ancient cultures and evolved into the wide variety of examples found throughout history.

Marijuana, the most commonly used illegal drug, has a habit of sticking around in your body for days or even weeks. Pot smokers who are looking to cleanse marijuana from their bodies should be prepared to be patient. Those who don’t have that luxury can spend money on detoxification products that may — or may not — hasten the process.

Stop Smoking and Let Nature Take Its Course

Step 1

To start cleansing marijuana from your body, you must stop smoking weed. This might be harder than it sounds for long-term users. For the best chance of success, avoid settings and situations where pot may be present.

Hard Drugs Vs. Soft Drugs

Drugs are used for both medical treatment and for recreation, due to their euphoric and other mind-altering effects. Well known hard drugs include heroin, cocaine, morphine, alcohol, barbiturates, amphetamines, and nicotine, while soft drugs include caffeine, marijuana, psilocybin mushrooms, and even LSD.

Soft drugs are less inhibiting and addicting than hard drugs, often being defined as causing psychological, but not physical addiction. Hard drugs are often defined as being both physically and psychologically addictive, while also posing serious risks to users. These drugs can easily be overdosed and can also cause significant harm to a user’s health, sometimes even leading to death.

Many criticize the deciphering between hard and soft drugs, arguing that defining a drug as soft takes away from highlighting dangers of drug use. Others argue that since some hard drugs are legal in the U.S., such as alcohol and nicotine, while others are prescribed legally by doctors, users fail to question the effects of those drugs. Take an in-depth look into the effects of several hard and soft drugs and compare their traits to those of LSD.

I have noticed more and more that Weed is getting more attention in the news, becoming more and more ‘mainstream.’ This is good to see on the telly, we as a society are starting to look at the issues after 70 years of illegalization (1937).

I saw the CNBC documentary “Inside America’s Pot Industry,” which was informative about the 2008 scene when George Bush still had much more federal pressure put on growers and Medical Marijuana Dispensaries. Now with Eric Holder as Attorney General in the Obama Administration resources are being used properly to fight the drug war.
