I just received my review copy of Steve Bloom's "Pot Culture" and flipped through the first few pages and read the forward by Tommy Chong. From what I can tell, this book is going to be very popular, it includes all the slang and collective knowledge of stoners everywhere. I haven't read enough of it for a proper review, but make sure to look for that in the future.... maaaan. Did you know that the use of "man", such as "hey man, what's up?" was a way of fighting the racist use of "boy" against African Americans? I didn't...

We've been knee deep in a serious heat wave in California. With 105F+ tempatures across the board, I'm glad that I spent most of the week in an air conditioned colocation facility. I'm usually in favor of too hot than too cold, but people are dropping like flies out here, it's scary. Make sure to drink plenty of water, people. It just may save your life.

This weekend has been pretty lax for me, I haven't gone out to any bars or parties, or even left my town in the last couple of days. With any luck, once again my phone will ring and insanity will follow. Carpe Noctum!
