How To Talk To Your Representative About Pot
Most potheads dream of the day where legalization is a national phenomenon, and though we've come a long way, there's still a lot to do before we can smoke pot in peace. As nice as it is to hope that the politicians in office would tell the DEA to take a hike, the truth is that we need to act if we ever want to see marijuana become legal.

My Parlay with Mary J!
I have to say that this blog is long over due. You see, in every blog post I write... wait a minute... let me back up a bit... in everything I write I give a piece of me, the real me. Depending on the subject, of course, is what sets the standard for the size of the piece I'm giving but I definitely give and it is for you the reader to guess where that piece is. I'll never give you a clue and only those who know me well can follow the webbed pattern I lay out but the clever ones will try... the fact is that's what I want you to do! Every now and then I want to serve you a blog that gives you me in all my splendor lol how I think, how I cuss, how I handle life daily and I always wanted to do something like this. Sort of chronologically break down one of my passions, from the beginning to the end; where we started and where we are now because honestly I truly love her, always had and always will. Now that I live in a state where it's legal to love her openly, the amount of encounters I have with her on a daily basis is so high (GET IT? HIGH LOL) and it brings a smile to my face every time. Often I find myself remembering how this type of freedom didn't exist for me on the east coast and I always finish the thought with "I definitely don't miss that." Yes, my parlay with Mary J goes back a long way.

Marvel Movie Guide for Stoners
Who doesn’t smoke weed these days? It is very popular and people are enjoying their Mary Jane daily. Walk the streets of NYC and try not to smell it for 10 blocks. With all the stresses in people's lives, smoking some weed and getting high calms people down. You can sit on the couch for hours without even knowing how much time has passed. A big part of being high is the state of apathy that occurs and watching a movie while high is always a blast, except if it is a horror film. Don’t watch Sinister while high... trust me. Another one to stay away from is Playtest and the Black bear on Black Mirror.

Cannabis: The Miracle Plant
CBD or Cannabidiol is made from high-CBD, low-THC hemp; it's unlike medical marijuana products, which usually have a high concentration of psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol or THC. Although CBD may not make you "trippy," it's beneficial for the human body in other ways and is drastically more helpful than many of today's harsh, addiction fueling over the counter pills. A huge reason why CBD bonds so well with the body is because our bodies are already equipped with cannabis receptors.

An Account of Cannabis Banking
What a strange time to be a bank. As a trusted institution, you want to support your friends peddling an amazing life changing medicine locally, but federally it's been written off as black magic sure to destroy the fabric of our society. On one hand, you've banked these entrepreneurs in other "mainstream" ventures and trust them as true professionals. On the other hand, they are now snake oil salesmen on a golden path you surely cannot navigate.
