And vegetarian, if not vegan.

Dolphin-safe.

Sold by a little mom-and-pop store that is struggling to compete with the shiny new Crak*Mart that just opened in the suburbs.

I find that the amish farmer's markets always have the best crack, and the corncob crackpipes they make a simply adorable

Considering that this California, it wouldn't surprise me if this were true.

And if not locally grown crack than free trade crack.

Who in Santa Monica can't find crack? Not as though the piers aren't full of dealers.

Free-range crack?

I prefer my crack made by traditional Brooklynites using the ancient processes handed down from generation to generation since 1984.

not really much of a drop off from the rest of the main street merchants in Santa Monica.

Santa Monica, a world of its own.
Neat seeing the ad for Golda Savage, nice person, was the agent who set me up with a rental on the Venice canals many moons ago.

The CVS drug store at Main & Rose (Venice actually)

Why is that clown in a dress on the exterior of that store?

It will keep you more alert (not to mention paranoid) so you'll notice when some ancient douche runs down dozens of innocent pedestrians.

Sure we know what Main Street wants, but how will it affect Wall Street?

Free-range, organic, locally grown, 100% of your daily vitamins crack. Skip the paper & plastic, I have my own mesh-net crack baggie.

"While supporting the local business district is part of the mission, we think other factors come into place, such as supporting healthy foods, sustainability, high quality products and experience and diversity of offerings."

Notice how there is no mention of allowing vendors the freedom of meeting customer needs or promoting economic activity in a bad economy. It's all about happy-feely dictates. Is it any wonder California is in the toilet?

It wasn't a drug store when it was built - it was an avant garde art gallery. So the clown was as appropriate as anything that freakish can be. The gallery failed, it went through a couple of other iterations - it's been a CVC for a few years now.

Thanks!
My daughter and I would drive by that store and make up all kinds of stories about why it was there. Now we know!

New keyboard please!

If it's sold at markets, does this mean we get discounted prices?

Paradise white: One of our finest candies, Paradise is a fair-trade cocaine synthesized by Colombian chemists earning a sustainable living wage. Recommended for use with locally-made base pipes.
