200 years ago, you were lucky if you could pull off two musket shots in less than a couple minutes . . . now you can waste a whole post office with a single banana clip.

Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
You've been holding on to it
And I sure will like a hit

Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
That one's burned to the end
Come on and be a real friend



Nah -- they weren't stoned when they wrote that.

That's right -- I was citing two instances of the song, not implying that Little Feat performed it for Easy Rider.

wasn't trying to correct you i just started thinking about the time frame-i always assumed it was early 'feat' but then i thought they weren't around in the 60's. i looked it up on imdb!

Speaking of Little Feat, let's not forget Willin'

I been warped by the rain, driven by the snow
I'm drunk and dirty don't ya know, and I'm still, oh I'm still
Out on the road late at night, I seen my pretty Alice in every head light
Alice, Dallas Alice

I've been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Now I driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
and you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin'

Now I smuggled some smokes and folks from Mexico
baked by the sun, every time I go to Mexico, and I'm still
And I've been kicked be the wind, robbed by the sleet
Had my head stoved in and I'm still on my feet and I'm willin', oh I'm willin'

And I been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
and then you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin'

That is the lost amendment. It was a neat idea that died shortly after it was voted into existence. Nobody wants to devolve power, everybody wants to accumulate it. therefore, it will never important. Libertarians and states rights folks know it is there, but the rest of the country says it stinketh and they want no part thereof.

You can pursue a lot of happiness without getting stoned.

Shouldn't the question be . . . What amendment says I can't?

The 18th said you couldn't get drunk, one of the few "negative" amendments, but apparently getting drunk is okay thanks to the 21st. Shouldn't there be an amendment that says no toking?

Federal law says you can't....state law says you can't.....there is no constitutional right to getting stoned....there also is no constitutional right to rob the bank...beat your neighbor to a pulp just for the hell of it.....or to fornicate with your neighbors livestock...
