Re: Batum will wear number......
All joking aside, for those that don't know, the origin of the term "4:20" stems from a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in 1971. The teens would meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke cannabis at the Louis Pasteur statue. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high. The group was known as "The Waldos" because they would sit against a wall and became popularized in the late 1980s by fans of the Grateful Dead.
Other explanations, such as there being 420 active chemicals in marijuana, 420 was a police code for a marijuana violation, etc. are simply urban myths.

I also see, to hide your identity, that you changed your name from Goering to Goring.

I think you missed the umlaut. Göring = Goering, to at least the extent that Gay = Outlaw.

Re: 420 and pot.
was it really necessary to filter out the thread like this? If so, we probably will have to do it with a lot more threads then.

Re: 420 and pot.
Is there a special time for people to gather and enjoy a beer or glass of whiskey?

Re: 420 and pot.
Hippies are as opposite to Hitler as freedom is to dictatorship, as disorder is to order. Real hippies would never celebrate Hitler. Without us hippies, the Blazers would have zero championships in their history.
