and a sexual harassment campaign is born

Curtis: Nice pic of the Impala. Mmm...pretty.

Juno: If I could have sex with a car, that would be it.

Curtis: I thought you wanted to be, and I quote, "the stuffing in a Winchester sandwich"?

Juno: Next time they film locally, maybe I should carry a big sign advertising "I DO THE WEIRD STUFF".

Curtis: The crew will love that.

Juno: I'd better specify "WILL BANG SAM & DEAN FOR FOOD"

Curtis: Boooo, says the crew.

Juno: OK, revised signage: "ONE FREE HANDJOB TO 1ST PERSON TO GET ME 20 MINS ALONE WITH SAM & DEAN"
And they get theirs AFTER I get mine. I been burned before.

Curtis: You're such a classy broad.

Juno: I know, right?

Happy 420. Now pass the damn chocolate.


It’s 420, and I have the day off for the first time in EVER, so I (briefly) toyed with the idea of going down to the Vancouver Art Gallery and lighting up with the rest of the crowd.
Cops and the population in general here are relatively cool with personal marijuana use, as long as you’re sensible and discreet about it. April 20th is the one day where thousands of people gather at the Vancouver Art Gallery (which was formerly the courthouse), to light up in a show of good-natured civil disobedience. Cops might watch, but I’ve never heard of any arrests or interference.
It IS tradition, and civil disobedience DOES rock…but I’m almost twice the age of the majority there, and there’s a point where partying with the youngsters gets a little…skanky?

Reasons to celebrate privately:

5] The cannabis chocolate truffles (made exclusively for the Compassion Club by Naomi's Naturals; dark chocolate with NO herb taste, rolled in Saltspring Island coffee...nom nom nom) were going to kick in any time

4] It was looking like rain (I know, it ALWAYS looks like rain)

3] Pho, barbecue and KFC (none of which can be found at the gallery) were pulling me in three directions simultaneously

2] I had just been to the BCCCS and between the pot truffles, cannabis and hash was loaded for bear…and couldn't wait to get home and roll around in it.

1] Dear Guy With Pot Leaf Necklace and Rapper T-Shirt Blowing Smoke At the News Camera: do me a favour – DON’T be on my side. Next year I’m going to dress like a businesswoman and tote my briefcase and ‘sexy librarian’ self down there to give the event some much-needed class.

That said - pass the dutchie.

do it for Science!


I've raved about vaporizers before, and the BCCCS has them for sale. They've also started a nifty rental program for members, where a $40 deposit and $8 fee lets one try out a Happy Vappy vaporizer for a week. Needless to say, GET IN LINE. So it's come my turn to go smoke-free for a week.
I'm also going to be road-testing and reporting back on a few other models NOT gotten thru BCCCS: the Volcano, and the iolite. One model that will NOT be making an appearance is the primitive BC Vaporizer - you actually have to unscrew a screaming-hot inverted jam jar to put your herb in the heater - MAJOR design fail. I can tell you right now, comparing the BC Vaporizer to any other model is like comparing a pointy stick dipped in dogshit to Mont Blanc fountain pens.
