That was the time you could buy nickels and dime bags and half ounces. Not many strains existed back then. It was usually just Panama Red, Columbia Gold and Mexican dirt weed. If you happened to know someone who was a Vietnam Vet or had some kind of Indonesian type connection you could get some weed in the politically incorrect ‘70’s called “ gook weed” which was Thai
Stick. but the thing that really changed the game back then was a thing called
Sensimelia . Things then started changing to grams and eights. This did not go down to well with a lot of folks because you were paying more money for less weed but the weed was more potent so you would get more bang for your buck because the THC content was higher. But some of the best weed I smoked back in the day was called Jamaicanlambsbreath . It smelled like fruit loops( a very intoxicating beautiful smell) and nice and smooth and great tasting.
Yes, the ‘70’s ... the Cheech and Chong era, when life was simpler. And the word Laidback really ment Laidback and it was so much more fun to get high. When people had more style and more smiles because life was so much easier then it is now.

Thanks for the insight. My dad always tells me how different weed is now. He’s used to regs. He thinks sensimilla is too strong for him.

Yeah, I hear ya.

I actually had a friend who VOLUNTEERED to go to Nam. He graduated from HS in 1972 or 73 and by then, they weren't drafting into combat.

But my friend's father and grandfather were both lifers in the service, and both had fought in world wars, and he was gung fucking ho to make it 3 generations and continue the family military tradition. And it was a good tradition up to then.

So he literally volunteered his way to being on a gun boat patrol. They were trained to know who they're shooting at and not engage civilians (if that was even possible to teach).

His buddy got shot dead in front of him by someone on a boat they thought were civilians. He hadn't been there a week yet.

After that, they would just shoot and sink other boats from a distance, then go see who they killed.

They killed civilians and got hooked on heroin. He came home hooked, embarrassed, mentally fucked up and was treated like most returning vets back then, like shit.

He still has problems to this day. His life was wrecked in just a few months there.

That happened to many thousands of promising young men.

And almost half a century later, we're still doing it like we haven't learned a damned thing.

I joined the Army right out of high school and volunteered to go to Nam. I was RA (Regular Army) not a draftee. I was 19. Buy the time I got to Nam there were a lot of draftees, and they tended to fire at everything in sight. I hate to say too much about some of the things that happened because they are still bringing German war criminals to trial, and i know we crossed a lot of lines in the jungle. But we were just afraid and trying to stay alive.
