I specifically mean marijuana. A little alcohol is less poison that a lot, but it is still chemically a poison, same as marijuana to the individuals conscious thought.

Long reserved? LONG?

Supposedly, “420” was a California police code in the 1970s meaning “marijuana smoking in progress”.

I’m partial to Eric Johnson.

Good choice, but you can't see his fingers when he plays. Unless you're a .300-average major-league slugger.

The Feds didn’t get anything but money from him. The IRS had tacked about $10 million in penalties on $1 million in taxes. (Not really sure about the exact figure.) He eventually paid them the original tax bill.

Seems like I remember some farmer bought the club and held it until Willie and the IRS settled the claim. Then Willie bought it back.

I met his golf pro on a movie set. He offered to give me free lessons at Willie’s place. Like a fool I didn’t take him up on it.
