> Sure you could stop the movement of drugs across the border. All that would do is stimulate replacements...

I suspect the word you're looking for is "fungible".

[dayglored]

> Very clever. And to think, all we had was a vinyl LP.

Yeah, but that vinyl LP produced more totally helpless laughs than we could ever count.

Even if we remembered 'em all, which we don't.

I just wish I'd kept the huge rolling paper in Big Bambu intact... I could sell it on eBay

"Have you ever heard someone actually use the term Groovy?"

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.

LOL

[Brilliant]

$60 to $80 for an ounce.

Wouldn’t call that “cheap.” Tobacco’s a lot cheaper.

Ouch. Now I -really- feel old....

"I wonder how many people remember when you could buy a ‘matchbox’."

You must be, like, a million years old. Memories, eh?

[Kickass Conservative]

Yes, and the good stuff from Hawaii was $20 per ounce.
At least that’s what somebody told me...

[Kickass Conservative]

Yes I am. Just waiting for Santa.

[HAL9000]

That old story about Jack Johnson and 497-and-a-half feet of rope? Yeah, I’ve heard it.

[razorback-bert]

This ship don’t haul no coal.

Everybody is going to wonder what we are talking about.

You wouldn’t believe, something that people don’t remember about the sixties, is how much death and violence was involved. Death was a constant in my world back then.

I have lost friends at a rate of about one every three weeks at the height of our hard partying days.

[Floyd Rivers]

$50 to $60 1/8th oz. ... guessing though

[Nate505]

He said cocaine was a hellva drug.

[Nate505]

The old timers always wax philosophically about how much cheaper pot was back in the day.

But according to the handy dandy inflation calculator, $10 in, say 1973, was worth about $47. So if one can get an ounce for $60, the price difference isn’t all that drastic.

[Riverman94610]

I bought my first “lid”for EIGHT dollars back in 1967.GOOOOD stuff too.
Fifteen years later,the lovely”hippie chick”who sold it to me was found dismembered up in the Santa Cruz Mountains as the result of a rip-off and execution.
That ended the Sixties era for me.
