These things werent 24 hours in my area, they had pre-rolled "cones" available only until 2 AM. Cheap shake joints up to hash and wax slathered spliffs. I never got into them but I could see them coming in handy if you are a big night owl, most pot shops dont stay open past 9-10 around here.


Theres a lot of money in the cannabis game for the sober folk, Ive known plenty of money hungry non-tokers getting in on the cannabis action for the past decade. You have quite a few people who grow out of smoking pot, but still realize how lucrative their garden habits are, especially when they arent smoking half of it. These people are essentially growing tomatoes worth their weight in gold. I had "leased" backyard space in my neighbors backyard in exchange for 1/3rd of the finished value for a couple years, he was an older man whose wife had died and needed the money, hadnt smoked pot in 40+ years. He got $1200-1600 those 2 years just for giving me the key to the backyard, got added security, plus the poor soul got someone to actually talk to. I've known other sober people to sell pot for their husbands/relatives as well, and theyre cut in one way or another.

I really dont want to see it all get corporatized in the end by people with no actual care for cannabis. Lucklily, if any demographic would embrace the anti-corporate, anti big business attitude, it would be potheads.

/If you've ever spent any substantial time in northern CA or southern OR, you know exactly what Im talking about

Not ironic...
