OT- It's a celebration!

Submitted by BigBirdBlue on

So in honor of my momentous occasion of passing 420 points on MgoBlog (took me long enough), I am posting as the OP for the 1st time.  I plan on celebrating by going to legally purchase some blueberry buds; thanks Colorado!  One of my favorite memories of Ann Arbor was at hash bash 1995, where I got to taste blueberry for the 1st time.  Do you have a favorite strain, or hash bash memory, if you can remember it?

A sativa hybrid.  Keeps you amped all day.

 

This might be more interesting than some things thrown up lately on the site.  I bet this gets more than 11 comments as well.

I also resemble this thread.  Surprising that we both have avatars in the snow?  No.  No it is not.  I agree 100% with the sativa side of things and my #1 is Durban Poison.  Indica pretty much makes me a totally worhless human, especially with the contemporary strength of the product.

go to bed. And Fauxmo, your new avatar is spooky. What did you do with svetlana and the puppy or kitten or whatever that was? You and CJK5H, allegedly.

I was going to have a cigar later. Clearly, seeing this thread has changed my mind. I may now have two.....and a whiskey.

As for point totals to psot threads, for those who may being wondering, that's a Brian / Seth thing - even the mods can do nothing about the bar for posting threads.

Had some family from VA come up this weekend. My cousin brought her new bf. He graduated from Illinois in '96. He was in the band. I asked him who he thought their biggest rival was and without hesitation he said Michigan. He told me how much they hate Michigan and how that week was different than any other one. I of course was laughing hysterically and finally told him Im a diehard UM fan. I dont get it but he gave me a Cuban cigar and some homemade wine he brought up so all was forgiven.

Illinois has been like this FOREVER, and virtually every grad (or fan) I've met has shared this one-sided rivalry obsession.

It's sad, not only aren't they a rival, but even if they were they'd be like what, 6th behind OSU, ND, MSU, East Dakota, and whomever has pissed us off lately.

We need to create a trophy for this rivalry, I suggest a see-through mirror so they can keep obsessing and we can keep ignoring.

I can verify this, from the interaction I've had with the only Illini grad I know. She's a charming, extremely intelligent (she is literally a rocket scientist), articulate, and altogether terrific woman. But when the subject of UM football comes up, she looks like she wants to spit. She has said that if Illinois only win one game in a season, she wants it to be against Michigan.

Her blind hatred of UM is much like when she discusses rocket science. I don't get it, and I don't even try.

I like where your head is at, LSA. Had a Rocky Patel and a glass of 15 y.o. Dalmore last night myself. Rinsing and repeating tonight is sounding like a good idea.  Enjoy!

beer, wine, food, scotch etc.  But when it comes to smoke, I'm such a light weight that anything stonger than its version of Miller Lite and I'm just plain stupid.  That being said, I am looking forward to a trip to state where I can sample from the buffet.  Ahhhhh, yes the Hash Bash.  Happy smoking mate!!  I'm there with you in spirit.

The Final Four game against Illinois in '89 was the same day as the Hash Bash, and then the Grateful Dead were in town.  Some weird-ass shit was going on for about a week.  I remember these sketchy dudes busted out a block of hash right on the M in the Diag and people were toking off a hookah.
