Here here i'm not but 67 you have a couple of years on me. I do not watch the news and just stream what i want to watch. Mostly gardening and food shows with some lively Netflex programs LOL. Dang what we see on tv these days would of been X rated 20yrs ago.🤣🤪
67! What a Young pup!🤣
 
Ya it damn sure isn't easy making it this long. I've have a lot of battle scars. About 500 stitches, 7 operations, multiple broken bones. I lived a full life.17 years of hockey, 8 years in the Navy, and a wild man ! So, ya it's not easy getting here. I feel bad for kids that never make it to an adult. Sad !
I was NOT kind to myself in my youth. Why would I be? I was indestructible back then and set out to prove it. Ahh But the memories, like wine they get better with age. I have no regrets. Wait, I do have one regret, My first marriage, what was I thinking....

That's why I'm called Metalman1. Because I have two metal hips, and a metal jaw.
 
Listen to us! Singing the same tired lament that all old people have sung since the beginning of time! L O L! Somethings never change! I try not to get caught up in the judgemental part of it! Just try and stay out of the way and let the young folks take their turn at fucking things up! You go, young folks! I am behind you! You’re keeping things interesting! L O L!

I gave up on TV 8 years ago. Looked at my cable bill back then and said.. Why? Compared to now it was down right cheap. The News, nah no time for that either. News today is like the old newspaper saying, "If it Bleeds it Leads" More drama and scary then news. I guess you could say I'm pretty much a hermit now.😎
 
I think the song, old hippie by the Bellamy Brothers, pretty much sums it up! Except for the 35 year old part! Time to hobble out back and have a look at my girls! L O L!

Hi Folks,

I recently decided that because growing for personal use has become legal in my neck of the woods and purchasing was busting my budget I would renew an old hobby, growing cannabis. I can't say I'm new to growing, however, the first lesson I experienced is that I should forget about everything I ever thought I knew about growing in the past. What a surprise! It's a whole new world now.

I'm looking forward to learning more and enjoying the experience along the way. I have been pretty much been winging it and searching the internet for answers and quickly learning that similar issues are caused by different problems. I certainly made my fair share of mistakes and over corrections along the way. Understanding nutrients and the various methods of monitoring them can make your head hurt. I think I'm nearing the end of my first grow but then again maybe not, I've never done this before.

My opinion is if you never try you never learn. I'm trying hard but wonder how much I'm learning.
I'm right there with you purchasing is hurting my wallet at 150 to 220 an ounce for anything good that holds up well in a bag more than a few weeks.

What in the world ^^^^^

Anyway you made me go listen to the song. How can he be an "old" hippie at 35? What does that make me? Great tune by the way. One of my favorites is by Willie Nelson "Roll me up and smoke me when I die."
 
I’m with You brother! And long haired country boy by Charlie Daniels has always been a triangle anthem! Lol! Love, Willy!

Who brought age up anyway ?! Wasn't me. That's the last thing I want to talk about. Lol

That's not a dispensary price. In NY there is a 13% excise tax on sales. Off grid sales local are 200 to 380.
 
The beauty of the Internet! You can check out prices at dispensaries all over the country! I don’t think it’s anywhere near that in Cali!
Off Grid is booming in as much as law enforcement can only get involved if you're driving under the influence, same as alcohol. You can carry up to 2 z's
 
I don’t know what it is here in Cali! I don’t even consider driving while stoned or drinking! I learned my lesson when I was young! I don’t want to kill some poor fucker! But there was a time!

My wife and I spent 20 years traveling the country with a RV. I did all the driving. When my wife passed 4 years ago I decided that I had pushed my luck far enough and quit. I really don't want to admit "but there was a time." 😇
 
Props to you, brother! Had a CDL for 25 years! Stayed straight and probably close to 1,000,000 miles! I hate fucking driving! L O L!
 
I’ll hit 70 on my next BD.
I’m guessing it was a lot more fun being in my 20’s during the 70’s than it will be being in my 70’s during the 20’s!😂
Not necessarily! You can have fun in your 70s! Just not as Wild! You’ve learned how to do it without winding up behind bars!
