BURNING BOOKS: The Emperor Wears No Clothes

An underground publishing phenomenom, Jack Herer's "authoritative historical record of the cannabis plant, marijuana prohibition, and how hemp can still save the world" remains the seminal text of the modern hemp movement. Although Jack "The Hemperor" Herer may be best known these days for the super-potent cannabis strain that bears his name, well-rounded readers will still find astounding facts in this well-researched work of stoner scolarship. Just don't try to smoke the pages.

Thank you High Times.

Baker's Dozen

Baker's Dozen

Most American dealers actually weigh out a 448-gram "pound," which is preferred because it's even divisible into eighths. Unklike the traditional "baker's dozen," which benefits the consumer with an extra donut, bagel, or pastry, the "dealer's ounce" benefits the house.

Thank you High Times for making us hip.

HIGH TIMES ALL STARS: Nate Newton

The six-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman was arrested in 2001 when police pulled over a van he was riding in and discovered 213 pounds of pot stored in cardboard boxes in the back seat. Five weeks later, he got popped again, this time with 175 pounds of herb in the car.

Newton, who had retired a year earlier after fourteen seasons in the NFL, was convicted of possession with intent to distribute marijuana and sentenced to thirty months in federal prison.

MARIJUANA AT THE MOVIES: ANIMAL HOUSE (1978)

Professor Pothead (aka Donald Sutherland) invites a few of his prized pupils to a very special session of "office hours" in the most popular college comedy of all time, locking the doors, shuttering the windows, and killing the lights before lighting up some grass and sparking a philosophical debate that ends with the timeless question: "Can I buy some pot from you?"

Thank you High Times.

STONER SONGS: "STONED IS THE WAY OF THE WALK" (1991)

Their first "hit" in more ways than one, the higher-than-high Cypress Hill initially inhaled fame with this ganja-soaked ode to hip hop potheads and then held it in with "Hits from the Bong," "I Want to Get High," and other blunt inspired ditties.

Thank you High Times.

SKILL OF THE MONTH: Debunking Marijuana Myths

Argument: Alcohol and tobacco are bad enough, so why add to our troubles?

Myth Debunked: Marijuana is by far the least harmful of the three. Also, millions of Americans already use cannabis regularly. And most marijuana-related problems stem from the prohibition against it, not its use.

Thank you High Times

Beer Bud-Dies

Once thought to be related to nettles or mulberries, cannabis is now grouped with the family of plants that includes hops. Which is probably a good excuse to have a beer with that bowl - it's practically a family reunion.

MEET MARY JANE: NORTHERN LIGHTS X HAZE

MEET MARY JANE: NORTHERN LIGHTS X HAZE

Developed by Amsterdam seed breeders, this hybrid combines Northern Lights, an easy-to-grow, abundantly yielding indica, with the soaring high of Haze, a slow-growing, wispy sativa. The result blends the best of both worlds, yielding dense, resin-soaked buds that bring a clear, uplifting intoxication.

Thank you for the blend review High Times.

ANTICIPA-A-TION

ANTICIPA-A-TION

It takes at least thirty minutes, and sometimes as long as two hours, to start feeling the effects of ganja food, depending on how strong it is, what else you've been eating, and the many subtleties of the human mind. The experience will then grow steadily more intense for a few hours before gradually receding. So start with a little taste and see what happens. You can always eat more later.

Thank you High Times for the foody tips.

SKILL OF THE MONTH: Debunking Marijuana Myths

Argument: Alcohol and tobacco are accepted parts of our society, making them fundamentally different from marijuana.

Myth debunked: Precendent is no excuse for bad policy. Slavery and child labor were once accepted parts of our society, along with opium-laced baby medicines.

Thank you @hightimes for the heads up.

Happy Canada Day - OH, CANADA

Happy Canada Day!

OH, CANADA

One more reason to love our neighbors to the north: the Marijuana Party of Canada, a political party entirely dedicated to the legalization of weed. In 2006, the party finished ahead of the Greens.

Thank you High Times.
