So I am cruising through K-Mart picking up a few things and I remember that I needed some rubbing alcohol.  No big deal, then low and behold I run into something rather unexpected on the shelf… 70% Isopropyl Alcohol with Citrus. 

I check out the bottle and it is regular alcohol with a citrus scent.  Sweet.

First thing I did when I got home was clean my bong and man this stuff is great.  I just added a little bit of salt and it was just like I remember formula 420 being.

I highly recommend this citrus scented blend. You get great cleaning powers and now you don’t even have to deal with the sharp smell of the rubbing alcohol.

I paid about 2 bucks a bottle and I am gonna go back for more.  Do yourself a favor and pick some up.

Keep cleaning those bongs.

So your legally selling medical marijuana in California.  A kid and his dad come into your dispensary with a prescription from a doctor at Stanford University.  The patient, although a minor, is battling cancer and you fill the prescription.  Wow, seems civilized.   Kinda like the reason why prop. 215 was passed in California to begin with.

Too bad there is another side to this story.  A side where the man behind the dispensary might get 100 years in prison.  What?  In California the average first-degree murderer serves 20 years behind bars???  Thank the Feds for taking this to a whole new level of stupidity.

As an early-on/grassroots supporter of good old prop. 215, I don’t understand how the Feds can just barge in and stomp all over California.  I think we need to show that medical marijuana has become a states rights vs. the Feds issue.  This is far bigger and could really grab peoples attention.

Anyway, enough of the ranting.  What I wanted to do was present you the whole story of what I described earlier.

Drew Cary hosts and narrates a very well done piece on medical marijuana and minors.

Thanks to Reason.tv for making and sharing videos like this

I hope you watched and enjoyed the vid. My question now is, you got cancer and your fighting for your life. You just got some weed. How do you enjoy it? Joint, pipe, bong? I wonder what this kids first session was like? How did the marijuana actually work for him?

Keep your bongs clean!

We knew it was a matter of time before we would make our own  ‘how to clean a bong’ video.  Consider this version 1.1 and please stay tuned for more videos.

Cleaning a bong is a simple thing. Too often we make bong cleaning complicated or we stoners are just too lazy to do the job. Bottom line is that if you clean your water pipe weekly, you will have a healthier, more pleasurable smoking experience.

I hope you enjoy the video and appreciate the advice.

You, your bong, and your smoke will be better for it.

Last Year while making my rounds at the 20th Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam, I was fortunate enough to meet Doug Benson. Little did I know at the time, he was about to drop a “Potumentary” called Super High ME. Imagine Super Size ME, but with pot instead of McDonald’s. Doug Benson starts the movie with 30 days of no smoking or alcohol and then dedicating the next 30 days to copious amounts of smoking and eating marijuana laced products.

I felt the ‘meat’ of the movie was the conflict between state medical marijuana laws and federal anti-drug laws. There are some very candid shots of medicinal dispensaries getting raided and the protests that ensued. A perspective you really don’t get to see in the mainstream media. Unfortunately, Super High Me did lack the real medical examination of the 30 days of consuming MJ and the reality check of a real documentary.

Some things this movie is:
-Doug Benson’s humorous 30-day stoned journey.
-a political film about the dispute between state and federal authorities on Marijuana legalization in California.
-a club film about Benson’s comedy act during the period of his 30-day experiment.
-evidence that marijuana won’t do much harm.

Sometimes April 20th can be such an action packed day that you don’t have time to do anything. We are of course referring to the ‘420 Fried Food Feast’. (Please click here to check it out) It was equally as fun as our Maui 420 on 4/21 Cannabis Cup.

Along side your alcohol, salt and rice you should try these 3 simple bong and pipe cleaning tools. Most of the work is going to be done by the aforementioned items, but these additional tools can help any situation.

My first go-to helper is the “q-tip” or cotton swab. These nifty tools are very safe for all of your glass especially. One of the best parts of Qtips is they are disposable. They are flexible and can make it into very tight spots also. Dip them in alcohol for added affect. I find Q-tips to be a valuable tool for not only cleaning, but they are great for maintaining. Again, dip them in alcohol and they work wonders. Remember that you can buy extra long versions too. This will aid the cleaning of larger pieces.

Cannabis icons Willie Nelson and Snoop Dogg treated an Amsterdam crowd to a musical match made in marijuana heaven. The dynamic duo performed live at the Melkweg on April 21st. 2008.

I can hardly imagine seeing either one of these guys live in Amsterdam, but to have both on stage…what a treat.

Although not the tightest musical performance. The two were obviously having fun and were playing to the crowd.

Please enjoy this “high” quality footage from the show. The first 30 seconds is a blank screen with just audio, but then the magic happens.

Usedbongs.com is trying to start a clean pipe and bong movement.

All too often pipes and bongs are neglected. Filled full of unhealthy, nasty residue.

I try to make this analogy: A marijuana enthusiast is to a cooking enthusiast as a bong is to a frying pan. They are both tools of the trade.

Would you want to eat what a cook had used the previous day without cleaning? That’s nasty and so are dirty bongs. Your pipes and bongs not only deserve to be cleaned, but should be done for health reasons.

Once you get into the habit of regular cleaning it becomes less chore like. Cleaning will become routine and less challenging. Having to clean out a couple months of crap can be quit tedious.

As UsedBongs.com grows, we will provide constant assistance in your bong and pipe cleaning missions. Tips, tricks, how-to’s, and how not’s.

First of all, I wanna state how happy I am that 420 is something that happens twice a day and not just once a year.

Now something that should only happen once a year is the “420 Fried Food Feast”.
A gathering of friends, fried food, and the celebration of marijuana.

What a glorious day it was and a big shout out to Mike for lending the key ingredient: the deep fryer. :)

The 420

• Sour Diesel x Spontanica

• Trainwreck

The Fried Food Feast

• Kalua Pork, Cream Cheese and Thai Sweet Chili Sauce Won Tons
• Chicken Eggrolls
• Beef Taquitos
• Chicken Taquitos
• Pork Gyoza
• Tempura Shrimp
• Tempura Broccoli

The 420 was wonderful. The fried food was delightfully gluttonous. The friends were happy.
This was our first “420 Fried Food Feast”, but it will NOT be the last. In fact we have already started planning the second annual “420 Fried Food Feast”.
Please enjoy some of the shots from the event:
