Thai stick in the 70's sure seemed like the best I've had. But at the time the only other option was Mexican brick weed. So even in memory it seemed awesome, it's very likely the stuff today is head and shoulders above it in quality. I'm just used to it.
I did smoke some Thai bag weed back then, all black and sticky, that supposedly had opium in it that was great. My dad was outside scraping paint off the bathroom window. My friends and I had gone into the backyard to smoke a joint of this stuff and went back to my room. I kept wondering why the plane overhead never went anywhere...when I went to the bathroom I realized what the sound was. Talk about audio hallucinations!
It's like your first love, nothing can replace that, but chances are the partner you have now is much better and you are more in love

I know they don't compare to the THC levels of today and even though brick brown weed was the norm we sure did smoke a lot of Acapulco Gold, Panama Red and jamaican with such a distinctive taste I can still taste it. I don't know if the Acapulco was from Acapulco or if the Panama was really from Panama but Dam if we didn't get whacked smoking the biggest joints we could. Big ole giant party logs rolled using MANY small papers stuck together and a few sets of hands to wrap them.
EZ Wider had papers that were like a roll of toilet paper and we loved american flag and dollar bill papers. giant water pipes made of of giant Gallo jugs. I seem to remember paying $19.76 for a big bag of yellow weed they were calling bicentennial weed. There was not much of a selection when it came to pipes so you always went for the BIG bowl size. As far as Thai sticks I think the ones we got on rare occasions had been "treated" with sumpin.
Lets not even talk about big chunks of hash. I don't remember how much $$$
but I sure do remember cheap chunks of decent hash. (It probably sucked)

Yes you did..Now what to do with all these old vinyl records? Don't even have a record player now.
Go get one! My father has an old techniqs vertical player, I found a needle for it and we've been jamming out to Dr. Hook, Morrison Hotel, Axis Bold as Love, even threw on 2000 leagues under the sea which neither one of us remember from when that paticular record player was bought in the mid 80's. The record is from '74.

Oh yeaaaa. When I was in the Air Force my specialty was ground radio maintenance. I changed a lot of tubes and also many instances where I had to change the tube socket.

I Worked at a Dale Drugs in Detroit Michigan in '74 and we had a cabinet/test machine and the customer would bring in burned out tubes and we'd test them and then cross reference the tube #'s and sell them a new one. Oh how times have changed
