I’ve been mostly happy with my state’s medical marijuana program, and that’s despite any genuine criticisms or frustrations I might have about packaging rules from the Department of Health. I have to remind myself how difficult it was to even find marijuana in the first place when all my state had was a black market….

I’m fairly surprised to see both of my grandparents so supportive of cannabis these days, even if it’s mostly just their opinion regarding CBD by itself.

I had an idea that gasoline would keep increasing throughout the past eight months, but I had no idea it would almost hit $5 a gallon in my area for the first time in history. Despite the selective memories of so many people, we had comparatively high gasoline prices at the start of the Great…

A batch with a higher alcohol content might make the user more intoxicated with less in their stomach, but it’s not necessarily going to lend to a better flavor profile and…

I’m shocked by the amount of development that’s going up in my area despite the state of the country’s economy. You’d think that we were in a bull market right now if you focused solely on the amount of building construction as the sole determining factor for economic strength and prosperity. While we are very…
