pot doesn't kill brain cells, it just increases the level of fats in brain cells. Alcohol, on the other hand, murders brain cells.

It only kills off the ones I don't need. Thus by natural selection, drinking actually makes me smarter.

According to Steven Hager, editor of High Times, the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. While our teens feel that they know something we don't, you can let them in on the fact that it was your generation that came up with the numbers.

A quote from one of the Waldos in the High Times article states, "We did discover we could talk about getting high in front of our parents without them knowing by using the phrase 420." Fortunately, your teenagers will not have that same option.

That is why my group of friends came up with what I believe to be our own code for a time to get high. We would simply say it is time for "baseball" derived from the one-hitters often referred to as bats.

So with that being said, I will be playing some baseball shortly after I get off work this evening!😀

HAPPY 420
 
I thought 420 was the LAPD code for some marijuana infraction, i think smoking it. I know they have codes for tons of stuff, like in demolition man, code 187 murder-death-kill.

I should probably go look it up and not rely on movies for my knowledge....

Edit: google is my Friend
