I wasn't born until 1974 and I was just curious, especially after repeated
viewings of Dazed and Confused.

Those were different times, eh?

I didn't see too much of what I'd now call "excellent" weed, but
it sure was economical. Every week I'd cash my paycheck and get
an ounce of Mexican ragweed for $10. That and a pack of E-Z Widers
would guarantee absolute dissolution.

One of the reasons I gave it up almost ten years ago is the current prices...
just ridiculous. I have better things to do with my money these days...

Greetings Unto Matt
I've never seen dazed and Confused, so I don't understand the
reference. I remember that I started smoking late in 77. Pot had just gone
up from 20.00 an ounce to 40.00 an ounce. The price change occurred almost
overnight. I thought the person selling to us was trying to rip us off, then
I found out that the price change was universal (at least in our area,
Western Pennsylvania). We seldom had a problem with quality though.
