Having dealt with the hard stuff, Henry Vespa now takes a look at everyone’s favorite leaf in part one of A Brief History of Weed… Grass, hash, weed, bud, hemp, tea, skunk, Mary Jane, sinsemilla, pot, ganja, reefer… All names for one of Mother Nature’s most […]

A lot of people have their own suggestions when it comes to improving the taste of their semen or vaginal discharge. Many swear by pineapple and other fruits. The Internet’s general opinion suggests that a vegetarian diet tends to result in a more agreeable flavor, […]
You don’t need to be a Gregorian Monk to know that today is the lunar mecca for stoners worldwide: 4/20. The date is Pavlovian for all those who indulge in the magic herb. But it’s not solely about rolling up and smoking, or bunging it […]
If you’ve ever discussed the genesis of “420” with fellow weed smokers, you’ve likely heard a few stories/theories/loads of bullshit about it. Let’s face it, most stoners will rationalize their hypothesis into anything. It’s part of the storytelling hubris that comes with pot. Some of […]
Considering the amount of shit news and apps that we get these days, I’m all for anything that tries to promote some kinda happy. If you can be passionate about checking in at restaurants, then stoners can be passionate about checking in when high. At […]
For years, investing in marijuana has seemed like a dangerous proposition, for obvious reasons. It’s tough to rationalize taking a big stake on something that’s not entirely legal in many places. And sure, things are changing quickly; but while the apparent global permissibility of weed […]
The State of Indiana has created a lot of backlash recently by signing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), a bill that allows businesses and/or individuals to deny services to gay people, based on “religious grounds.” Naturally, the criticism was almost immediate, as people and […]
I’m not one to partake in pot use. From what I can glean from my friends and colleagues who do indulge, all it does is submerge you in giggly, murky, only slightly psychedelic oblivion, plus make every next Cheeto more delicious than the last. Doesn’t […]
In the final part of his Brief History of Weed series, Henry Vespa looks at the myriad profitable uses of Mother Earth’s wonder-plant, beyond smoking it… Maybe it’s not all bad… Let’s try to finish this series on a high note (pun most definitely intended) […]
In part 3 of his Brief History of Weed series, Henry Vespa prescribes a diagnosis of marijuana’s health benefits… So, enough history. Right here and now as the year 2014 draws to a close, the U.S. has 14 states out of 50 in which possession […]
The truth is that Ted Manitoba is kind of paranoid. As part of a cultural world where the cult of personality holds sway, Teddy and his brilliant team of designers, cartoonists, joke smiths, storytellers and geeks-of-all trades have chosen to remain 100 percent anonymous. In […]
In the second of his series on A Brief History of Weed, Henry Vespa now casts a smoky eye over Mary Jane’s transition from acceptable medicine or booze substitute to global government bogeyman… On the whole, it wasn’t until the 20th century that we got […]
You’ve probably never heard of Mathew Gerson. He calls himself a ‘Social Entrepreneur,’ which may be a mistake because, often, in the minds of a jaded public, the notion of the entrepreneur in society tends to be loaded with clichéd assumptions about snake oil salesmen, […]
Now that marijuana has been legalized in two more states in 2014 – Maryland and Minnesota – there are now 22 states where varying amounts of the drug are now legal. Entrepreneurs and investors are going extra green. Many believe a boom is about to […]
Do you remember those 80s commercials for Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups? That is exactly what I felt when I heard about Foria. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, it’s lube that contains medical marijuana. Because some people do have great ideas that were just sitting in front […]
The widely publicized notion about baby boomers mellowing as a natural result of the aging process seems to be wildly erroneous. Well, at least according to the U.S Federal Government’s Annual National Survey on Drug Use and Health. On Wednesday, September 3, 2013, what Uncle […]
Not being a current resident of the United States, I’ve forgotten how weird the marijuana laws are. Currently, two states have legalized weed for recreational use, while a big handful more have made medicinal use at least permissible (the federal government can always choose to […]
