IT’S HIGH TIME
So, Canada had legalized marijuana, and he had wound up getting a job with one of the legal grow-ops after graduating from Agricultural College. Given the ‘entertainment’ habits of some of his dorm-mates, it was a surprise that it was him, rather than one of the 4:20 cadre.
He was pleased with the safety equipment his employer provided – gloves, coveralls, respirator masks. His hometown had once been the center of a tobacco-growing area. Each year there had been at least one case of death from nicotine poisoning. Here, about the worst thing that happened, was a nice contact high buzz.

It’s a good thing that I went back to proof-read one more time. Spell-Check didn’t catch that I had titled this “Flesh” Fiction. That’s a whole different genre! 😳 🙄

Yes, flesh fiction would have required an entirely different direction!

I find the occasional erotic fiction post online. “Talk dirty to me” doesn’t do anything for me, but I know some folks – male and female -who like it. 😳

To be honest?
It makes me laugh…. which is probably not the reaction they’re looking for!

Dear Archon,
Love the title.

Thank you. It was originally going to be ‘What Time Is It?’ in reference to the 4:20, but then the reefer reference occurred to me. 🙂

I’m sorry. 😳 Somehow I missed linking to your site this week. I’ve corrected that. 😀

I always wonder about these large scale productions – do they make rope from the hemp stalks after the strip the flowers and leaves?

I don’t believe that the “Smoke Me/Eat Me” type is suitable for rope production. I’ll have to research that. I think, like greenhouses and plant nurseries, they just compost and recycle. 🙂

I’d rather see new industry around the rec/med-weed industry than building new weapons of war anyday.

A weed farm is certainly a step in the right direction away from tobacco

It’s a small step, but a step. Tobacco is bad enough in the raw, but I read the other day that cigarette makers add urea (urine) to them, to make them “taste better.” 👿

Speaking of “high time”, the wife and I are in the midst of re-watching Breaking Bad, the methamphetamine-based series. It’s been years since we originally saw it and we are noticing a lot that we missed the first time. Remarkable that the narrative can simultaneously make us cheer for the wayward but desperate Walter White while vividly showing the horrors of addiction.

I only re-read the occasional book, but I find when I rewatch a movie, I notice things I didn’t see the first time. 🙂

The jury’s still out on marijuana – some say over-use causes paranoia.
