THC FOR TEETOTALERS

In the 1980's, temperance activists recommended marijuana as an alternative to alcohol, arguing that marijuana didn't lead to domestic violence while alcohol often did.

EAT IT, WEAR IT, BUT DON'T SMOKE IT

Cannabis sativa L. subspecies sativa variety sativa sounds like some kind of futuristic space-weed, but you wouldn't want to smoke it. That's actually the specific variety of hemp grown legally in Europe, Canada, China and elsewhere around the world for food, fuel, and fiber. Industrial hemp contains only trace amounts of THC (0.3 percent by Canadian standards which means you'd have to ingest a whole field of the stuff in one sitting to get anywhere near the effect found in one joint of today's high-grade grass.

HIGH TIMES ALL STARS: Bill Walton

Introducing the absolute worst person to have sitting in front of you at a Grateful Dead show: former NBA all-star, current TV commentator, and major deadhead Bill Walton. At six foot eleven, you have no chance of seeing over him, and if he finds you during the set break and starts talking about help-side defense, you're in for a long night.

Walton, who saw dozens of Dead shows, including private performance in front of the Egyptian pyramids in 1978, says he learned everything he really needed to know about playing hoops  from Jerry and the boys:"They taught me the importance of deliverying peak performance on demand, and to always play with a sense of joy and creativity," Walton says of the Dead. "They were just like a great basketball team ... a group of outstanding individuals realizing that the strength of the team was the strength of the individual."

Thank you High Times.

SKILL OF THE MONTH: Traveling With Weed

First of all, no matter what you tell yourself, your driving doesn't improve when you're stoned-it's just that the music sounds a lot better. Also, getting high in the car increases your chances of getting pulled over, and the odor and appearance of pot smoking greatly increases your chances of a search.

Don't speed. And you'll want to get a vacuum sealer-especially if you're carrying around more herb than you'd care to answer for in a court of law. These miracle devices store your greens airtight, keeping them fresh, and on the go. They're also popular among the foodies of the world and will therefore raise no eyebrows at the point of purchase-unless, of course, you ask which brand works best for weed.

Thank you High Times.
