What is "the grind"?

My neighbor found an empty prescription bottle (the orange kind) in her son's car with labels torn off, but "the grind" written in marker on the cap.

Aside from references to the daily grind, job woes, etc., I can't find anything that might explain this, certainly not on an (empty) prescription bottle.

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks

When I repurpose things, I tend to write a name or slogan on it. I built a cradle for my Wii controller so it looks like a phaser from Star Trek. I wrote "Wii would like to kill you" on one side and "Wii would like the stun you" on the other, and the grip says "WiiZapper9000".

I could see someone trying to use the pill bottle as a grinder and writing "The Grind" on the top.

...is the shake at the bottom of the grinder. It's pot pollen...or "shake." Can be really strong, like hashish.

The empty prescription bottle is just an easy place to stash the shake so it doesn't spill.

Dust from the weed attached to the plastic with static. It sticks on really well, so you should be able to see it.

(Reason #3 to never carry weed in plastic baggies if you can avoid it.)
