Laughter is a precious commodity, so I must share this

1. The beaches in Grand Haven are awesome in the summer.

And apparently so are Staples parking lots in the winter. Thanks!

[Walleye]

2. Old hippies unite!

[WhiteTara]

3. I wouldn't have shared that joint, but

I might have whipped out my smoking stick and torn off a piece of that doobie. Kindness does seem to be in the air among the folk.

[marble falls]

53. I'm hoping to run into a few myself. The one thing I am very short on is guess what ...

we haven't hoarded but we have enough paper stuff and dried beans, rice, pasta and make our own hand sanitizer. But an oz of reefer is what I don't have.

[WhiteTara]

54. I think that I have enough for a last little pipe full

and then I'll think about something else.

[marble falls]

55. I have a couple of doobs and most of a bag that looks good, tastes good, smells good ...

and gets you nowhere.

Had it for almost a year jarring it hoping to potentiate it as much as possible, but it is still 'D' weed. Thats when I quit buying from 'kids'.

My 'dealer' is in her 80's and just got out of the hospital and ain't going nowhere for a while.

[WhiteTara]

56. Yep, we're on our own.

57. All their grow kits are sold out!!

[WhiteTara]

58. Who needs a kit?

find a pot, get good dirt, plant a seed, water it, give it good light, and indoors, you have a 4 month grow and outdoors at the end of summer. Meanwhile, you get to play with a living plant.
Foxfarm.com for nutrients

60. Not in Burnet county, Texas. The Sheriff has said he treats pot like heroin and he was not joking ..

also we own a condo.

[WhiteTara]

63. Good luck in your time of need.

[marble falls]

64. Thanks. I have confidence in the Almighty, I'll get re-upped somehow! and you, too!

[LakeArenal]

4. Amending the the old canard:

Toilet paper gets you through time of no money better than money gets you through times of no toilet paper.

[sarge43]

14. DUzzy.

[FailureToCommunicate]

23. Ah, quoting the famous philosophers, the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers?

[LakeArenal]

27. Yes

[calimary]

41. Husband and I recited this to a friend just this afternoon!

She'd never heard of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers! She knows of them now! She laughed out loud!

Somehow I feel as though we performed a public service!

[FailureToCommunicate]

48. Well done! Now that they know Gilbert Shelton's art, ease them into R Crumb?

[SergeStorms]

43. I'm not too sure about that.

Ever get higher than a kite, get the munchies, and have no bread for food? Sometimes Ben and Jerry's ceases to be luxury item (or whatever your munchie of choice may be), and is a nutritional staple which continuing bodily survival depends upon. Take it from an old hippie.

Just sayin'.

[FailureToCommunicate]

49. Maybe. I think so. Can't quite remember... Heck, I guess if one were high enough...

and, I hear that weed is much more potent these days, then ANY food might be edible. The commune would always have a pot of tasteless brown rice sitting there to share, wouldn't it? Can't quite remember.

[lark]

50. Yes, I loaded up at the dispensary this weekend.

I've got enough for at least the next 3 weeks, after that I will probably have to rely on delivery which is expensive - damn. But until then I have a boutique of good medical strains and so am ok, painwise for awhile.

[uponit7771]

51. +1

[marble falls]

59. Maybe not ....

1. Poop is among us

If you don’t wash your hands after handling money, you may want to rethink that decision. Research has found most money contains fecal matter and other potentially pathogenic organisms. A study published in Southern Medical Journal reported the presence of disease-causing agents in about 94% of the bills tested. Furthermore, another study found approximately one in 10 bank cards contain fecal bacteria. When the hands of research participants were studied, more than 26% showed traces of fecal germs such as E. coli. So if you’re wondering what that smell is, it might be the money in your wallet.

[LakeArenal]

61. Doesn't that rather prove my point

TP more valuable than the money. Better for you too, apparently.

[marble falls]

62. Nope. It says paper is paper. That obviously people use their hands. A lot.

[UpInArms]

5. Thank you

[Pantagruel]

6. Unfortunately

sharing a joint with a stranger -really, really bad idea.
Sorry. Heartwarming story otherwise.

[Laelth]

7. Great story! Thank you. n/t

-Laelth

[demigoddess]

8. wish I was there.

[planetc]

9. Let me just kick this great story too.

[pamdb]

10. Grand Haven

Almost fell over when I saw it was Grand Haven. Gradn Rapids here. I think there's a Family Fare in GH, or it might be Holland. Try that.

[DENVERPOPS]

11. They saw what lay ahead in this country

And that why they had a sudden change of heart to make dope legal..........

[Upthevibe]

12. That's great!

Thanks for the post....

[erlewyne]

13. What about your wife?

Where I come from a hippie breaking a hip
is serious.

[CaptYossarian]

18. Then you're left with pie.

Mmmmmm, pie!

(Now I need to fall down the stairs for some pie.)

[Bernardo de La Paz]

15. People helping people is always good to hear. . . . nt

[Wounded Bear]

16. Yes, definitely needed a laugh. Thanks!

[DFW]

17. Sounds like a remake of Harold and Maude......... n/t

[NotHardly]

19. Perfect ...

[GeorgeGist]

20. The summers of my youth ...

Grand Haven was awesome even then.

This was one of my summer jobs.

[progressoid]

21. So they shared a joint and now they both have covid-19.

[Siwsan]

22. Some post just require a touch of whimsy, rather than a punch of reality

[progressoid]

28. Yep!

I lolled, rec'd it the post, then reality hit me.

[OverBurn]

24. AWESOME!

[IronLionZion]

25. I like the sentiment, but I'm trying to avoid old people

just in case I may have it, I don't want to give it to them. I might get sick and get better. They might die.

In normal conditions it would be great to smoke a joint with a 79 year old hippie.

[Siwsan]

26. Just let your hair down and allow yourself some 'literary whimsey'

We to laugh, right now.

[IronLionZion]

30. I'm with you

from the recommended social distance

[LakeArenal]

29. Anyone who would like to share a doob with a 68 yr old hippie

Fly down to Costa Rica and join me.
My name tells where we are!!



Well, of course, they did close the border today. So, see ya in about 60 days!!

[sarge43]

32. Beautiful country. Perfect place to wait out a pandemic.

Stay safe and say hello to the parrots for me.

[LakeArenal]

33. Squawk!!

We have one that comes and let’s me feed him from my hand.

[sarge43]

34. Hoomans are so easy. Just don't let him into your stash

They're operators.

[lettucebe]

31. This is beautiful and gives me hope!

Lovely story. Thanks for sharing

[warmfeet]

35. Tears in my eyes awesome.

A simple act of beauty and decency. This is how I hope life can be.

[kimbutgar]

36. Great story

Today I had to do my regular food shopping. I went to 6 stores to get my normal stuff and never saw toilet paper. Wanted to get vitamin c as we were down to the last tablets. Could not find it. But every store I went into I talked to the workers and thanked them. One clerk told me yesterday it was a zoo in the store but today no lines (except for hand sanitizer ) but how cool being thanked by smoking a doobie.

[Siwsan]

37. I'm headed out, tomorrow

I need to stock up on water softener salt, and I'm pretty sure that's not something people are hoarding. Well, kind of sure. It will be interesting to see how well Aldi is holding up. There are a few things I'd like to pick up.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

38. Great story

Smokin pot instead of drinking alcohol is why she’s still rollin along at 79.

[Joinfortmill]

39. ROFL

[southerncrone]

40. Events like this just might be the silver lining to this catastrophe!

[Hermit-The-Prog]

42. Thank you! I'm in KY and I'd gladly swap 6 rolls to share a joint with a friendly.

[colorado_ufo]

44. Cute story, stressful times!

But both of you smoking then driving off high?

Not funny.

[Siwsan]

47. I could be wrong, but I kind of think it's more of an apocryphal tale than a true account.

The important thing is if it made you smile.

[Cha]

45. LOL.. that is So Funny.. we've all had some

toilet Paper Experiences Latelyl.

Mahalo, Siwsan!

[Siwsan]

46. Iechyd da!!

That's Welsh for 'Good Health!'
