Special Comment
It’s Thursday, and I usually say something about some semi important issue on Thursdays. So in that tradition, I was gonna have a short special comment on my recent thoughts about the Soldier Boy vs Ice T beef, and what part KRS-One had in my current epiphany. But then I was like, “Hey, maybe we’ve got a new reader today, who might turn into a faithful follower if I have good a column.”
So instead, I’m gonna introduce my side column, “Historical Weed Sessions”. The idea is, you can pick any three people, alive or from history, and any kind of weed, and imagine a legendary cypher. Every Thursday after the special comment, I’ll give you a quick list to marinate on. So next week I’ll get into the riveting feud between the king of “crank that” and the original gangster, (spoiler alert, I’m kinda on Soldier Boy’s side). But for now, enjoy the inaugural edition of “Historical Weed Sessions.”
Ganja
Granddaddy Purple (Medicinal, Northern Cali, From a Jar)
Setting
Backstage at a Billie Holiday concert (epitome of old-timey, inter-racial hipsterdom)
Participants
Detroit Red (Malcolm X, but before he converted to Islam, deep but without the guilt)
Willie Nelson (Weed Icon, plus he owns a bus, and hopefully he’s got Ben & Jerry’s Peach Cobbler on that bus)
Tracey Morgan (No reason)
See ya next week pot heads, and new readers, usually it’s not this long, I got carried away. I’m just so excited you’re here.
Oh hell, here’s one more for the road.
