Having a medical marijuana Card has changed my life for definitely the better and not to be redundant, and it's made scoring much safer. But if you're of a certain age and generation, because of the nature of prohibition, the only way to score our pot was to go to someone's home. As much as I love having a card and going to the Pot Shop, or having it delivered, I miss the interaction of the old daze. So...here's my list of what I miss about seeing my Man (or Woman, as it were) to score. 1) Old School Etiquette. Believe it or not, in the old daze there was an incredibly set of manners involved in buying Pot. Upon arriving at your Dealer's pad, you would never mention why you were there. 2) The Relationship.

I sliced the dough, vertically, into six long strips. After 30 minutes in the oven… oh man…. bread heaven. Makes: one 9x5x3-inch loaf
