get420's blog: "get420"

Now, I recently saw a review on Stumble Upon about a press release that was issued by the DEA today, and I passed this along to fellow stumblers regarding a man from Oregon who was sentenced to prison for cultivating marijuana. It was titled DEA: Get420 Imprisonment For 1000 Pot Plants. This blog (kitchy word-call it trog) was not about whether you are pro or con regarding marijuana. You can hate marijuana for a variety of reasons that are completely valid. But, there are multiple wars being waged, that are not only constitutionally illegal, but they are economically not feasible for the economy, nor any economy. This is why history and information is vitally important to read, digest, and analyze. Perhaps, some may not know why the French Revolution took place, but a little bit of history may help us to understand that wars are not beneficial for the collective, unless you’re a king, a multi-national corp, a politician, a lobbyist for Lockheed Martin, and the list of dirtbags goes on and on. google the Carlyle Group and see what’s going on and what’s at stake. It’s called liberty and freedom. The cute buzzword crap that so many people buy for a dollar to put on their cars, and it’s probably made in China is passe and sickening. And then they wonder why they’re so confused and out of work. And this isn’t slamming China either, but hopefully slams a brick upside America’s collective head to get them to wake up from their Fox News eyes and ears, so glued to the tube. And the ladder climbing opportunist ho’s in Hollywood also. They are just as disgusting and shameful. Anyway back to the French Revolution during the tumultuous period in which their was the nobility, clergy, and the serfs/peasants. France’s assistance and support for America’s Revolutionary War bankrupted them. Now layer that with the Sun King, Louis, and his darling wife Marie (who had their dirtbag heads cut off) who spent 50% of the countries tribute/taxes on the Versailles Palace. Look it up on google and it’s beautiful, but the people were starving to death, thus the 3rd estate rebelled against this tyranny in 1789. I appreciated the content of this persons review, and not that I don’t appreciate the very good and supportive reviews and stumbles by others on Stumble Upon, I do, and I sincerely express those sentiments to all of them. The premise of his review was that to just take some information that affects the lives of all of us, and not thoroughly digest it, nor analyze and critique it is ignorant and deadly. I attend a University here in L.A. and the statistics with cut and paste plagiarism and cheating is in the 70% range. I’m not here to accuse nor point fingers at anyone. My job as a journalist/historian and a blogger is to hopefully inform, educate, entertain, and perhaps even make a small impact on this world that only WE THE PEOPLE can turn around. Reliance on politicians, churches, corporations, lobby groups, and many other cloak and dagger doog00der tax exempt organizations that are money making ponzy schemes failed us all dismally. This is the cauldron of lies and deception that creates a lot of atheists and people who just give up. But don’t, they (the power players) want you to. Take some time to get involved with something, anything. People here in L.A. are all against the war with their support the troops (which we do on get420.com and the Iraqi Vets against the war IVAW.org) and that’s all good. But have they ever talked to a vet, have they ever talked to any civilians who have been in war ravaged countries. NO, it’s just another dollar bill in the collection plate of apathy and stupidity. They would be better off giving the dollar bill to a vet for a beer at a local 7-11, or a liquor store, because the co-payments for their mental health has increased, and they have to drink to kill their psychological pain. But there is hope, and there are people involved. Jay Leno who may drive his antique cars around here in Burbank waving and honking his horn has a beautiful wife who helps the people of Afghanistan. It’s all good to get420, have girls, make mad money, watch snoop, own 50 cars (stupid) or whatever, but do something that has meaning and is lasting. Some of these ingrates locally here in Los Angeles could start by just saying thank you and quit trying to be so uber-cool with their cute little pointy shoes and $400 cigar lighters. Buy a zippo and give the money to the poor or a neighbor who needs a leaky roof fixed. Sorry if I pointed any fingers, but I too have to be reminded that they point back at me…

Today, law enforcement officials have announced the arrest of “Jimmy The Turtle,” the crime fighting tortoise who helped authorities lead them to the arrest of a 19 year-old who was caught with 10 pot plants last Wednesday. “Yes, it disappointed us and the community when we learned that “Jimmy” was caught smoking pot and drinking beer at a park in Maryland with some other losers”, said Park Ranger Louis Canseda, a spokesperson for Parks and Recreation. When asked by local reporters how “Jimmy” felt about his arrest, he said, “Hey what’s the big deal, I’m just your average turtle that likes to get high, and have a Budweiser every hour or so.” “Jimmy The T will be mandated to do 30 hours of community service, and is court ordered to attend 18 AA meetings. According to authorities, this is “Jimmy’s” 3rd alcohol and drug related offense.

Not to be a buzz kill, cuz partying is an essential food group like fruits and vegetables, but there's a jacked-up war going on..Your age group is the targeted audience for a possible draft..Support our troops by being informed as to how we got there, and correspond with them as to how you can assist and help them..They are some really wonderful and patriotic people who love this country..We can't forget about them because many are coming home with PTSD and other health issues. We support the troops and the Iraqi Vets. Check out IVAW.org I attend a California college and I'm in classes with many returning vets from both the Afghanistan and Iraq war. They need our support and give them some JD and a drink on me.. Thanks Oh and as Frank Zappa says, "You can't be a country if you don't have a beer, a football team, and a nuclear bomb".

Now ive spent a lot of time in bars and places where there are people and i don't understand why people don't converse more in the virtual world..Yes there are weasels and people who want to hand you their biz card with a microsoft logo on it but this isn't reality..This is supposed to be fun and interactive..This is why they call it a social net and not a helen keller network..talk, converse say something crazy, anything, other than the standard militia hi, hello, brother got a mac, oh really, yes, why not a pc..no money..gotta go..go to the fubar lounge and watch a girl spin around and get talking and get your 49 1/2 cent game on..no one will shoot you nine times, look at 50 he's still alive and he got blasted in real time in the real world..but ive always wondered why he hangs out with such bad shooters or is it bad PR people..anyway if my friends can't kill me after trying 9 times then i move on..

Now i'm not going to go on a tirade about Nascar, but let's face it, wives must be relieved everyday when their husbands come home with trophys and grease all over them, and some scratches. But they are probably more relieved at their husbands funeral, because she's got to be nervous wondering if daddy's coming home or taking his al-queda rocket ship into a wall at 180 mph. I wonder what the statistics are on legal and illegal drug usage with wives of Nascar drivers. It's a tough job but I wouldn't want it..I hate driving to 7-11.

Today is perhaps one of the greatest days for guys and perhaps the worst for girls...Football Sunday jets and miami. man this stuff just makes them want to go shopping after hearing guys scream all day..he scored a touchdown, oh my god he's in. oh well, were just guys who like beer, bongs, balls, and other crazy stuff that makes women just yawn and look for rope at home depot to hang themselves. cant we all just get some get420 and get along?

I guess I'm supposed to have a drink, even though my wife says to stop. But hey, football season starts and she'll have to deal with the Kegs, and then she will see that we are all the more Bud Wiser for it.. Don't drink the water. dave matthews. Have a drink on me. AC
