The Mrs always gets a little squirrely when Bob Wills is on. At least two of my kids owe their very existence to him.

What is "smoking the cousin"?

Why does everybody have that funny looking hat on in their pictures? Even the babies and dogs and such.

The closest plant to hops (cousin as it were) is Pot, Mary-jo-houka, weed, green, grass, dope, canabis... whatever you want to call it... therefore in the homebrew community that particular drug is refered to as "cousin"

As for the hat search "jayne hat" in the forum

OK, I understand about smoking the cousin. Are there a lot of pot smokers that make their own beer? People won't think I'm smoking pot just because I make beer, will they?

I couldn't find anything about the hat. I still don't get the joke.

No, but the joint in Santa's Mouth on your Avatar may...


As for the hat, it's a hat from a TV series from a few years ago. One of the Admins on this site (Lufah) had one made for him and put it in his Avatar. Others "cut" it out and added it to their own. It spread like VD in Nam.

Joint? Oh shoot, I just figured it was a roll your own cigarette like the ones I make. I'll have Molly change that when she gets home, unless I can figure out how she did that. I wonder if she did that on purpose? Thank you for the warning.

No problem, but keep in mind, you ARE anonymous here, so:

1 - no one cares if you do smoke pot
2 - no one cares if you don't smoke pot
3 - no one cares if your Avatar smokes pot

I care...

(In my best Sgt. Joe Friday voice)
You find yourself there, facing that choice... smoke out or walk out. You think to yourself, "Hey, it's not like it's black tar heroin" so you decide to fit in... take a puff. You start thinking, "Oh I can quit whenever I want... I'm just a casual smoker." Next thing you know your knocking over gas station convenience stores and robbing small children while they wait in line at ice cream truck. You're hanging on to your last life line. What money you don't spend on feeding your habit you spend on Cheetos, peanut butter and pickles. Your life is spiraling out of control and all you can do is huddle in the fetal position in the corner as you light up another doob. You've lost your friends, your family, your job, your life... all for what... a little green plant? You're living on the streets because you can't sleep on the bus anymore and the local shelters are full. You're blinding thirst has you drinking from public toilets. And still the only escape you have is to light up and fall asleep.

Who cares... I care.

Either that or I am REALLY bored at work.
