Good news for FLorida..
Medical marijuana supporters received final approval Wednesday from the Florida Department of State to begin collecting signatures for a ballot initiative that would enshrine doctor-approved cannabis in the state constitution.
The medical marijuana petition now has an active serial number and backers can start working toward the nearly 700,000 signatures needed by Feb. 1 to put the issue before voters in 2014.
The group pushing for a constitutional amendment hopes to send out an army of paid signature gatherers to blanket the state in search of support. Such an effort could cost upwards of $3 million.
People United for Medical Marijuana raised nearly $200,000 between January and March, with more than half coming from high-profile personal injury lawyer John Morgan. The group’s second-quarter fundraising total has yet to be reported, but campaign coordinator Ben Pollara said it will be similar to the first quarter’s total.
With the petition finalized, Pollara and Morgan will begin an aggressive fundraising push.
“We’re very excited the petition got approved and now we’re starting the real work of the campaign,” Pollara said.
With six months to raise the funds, Pollara said most of the money will come from a small group of well-heeled donors with an interest in the issue.
“We’re in the late stages of those conversations,” he said.
Morgan has also pledged to do “whatever it takes” to get the issue on the ballot.
The constitutional amendment would allow patients to use marijuana if they have a “debilitating condition.”
Certain diseases such as cancer, glaucoma and Parkinson’s are specifically mentioned, but a doctor would have discretion to prescribe marijuana for any “conditions for which a physician believes that the medical use of marijuana would likely outweigh the potential health risks for a patient.”
Patients would have to obtain an identification card from the state Department of Health, which would be authorized to develop “reasonable regulations” for medical marijuana, including procedures for opening a dispensary and obtaining an identification card.
The department also would regulate how much marijuana patients can obtain.

Well got a call yesterday from the real estate broker who's handling the properties where the wife & I were at last week (the empty lot in the video), and he left a voicemail saying he had talked with the developer & contractor to see if they could build something within our budget, as well as the properties have a 1300-sq.ft. minimum house size requirement. He said he has a few proposals that might work and wants me to call him to discuss them.
I had let him know what our hard limits were, so it might be an actual possibility to work out.
Fingers are now crossed tighter.
Well, off to the UPS Store to pick up my new cell phone. It came in yesterday but I was too tuckered out to go and get it.
So....

Hey guys! Been a while since I have checked in with yall. Been sick as hell with chronic bronchitis, and with asthma on top of it I have been through the damn mill. Now I am getting a bit better and can almost take a deep breath again. The Tahoe I took down about a month ago ended up being fuckin killer. I will be glad once I can take some fat bong rips, I really havent been able to smoke much in the last two weeks so I am going to get super stoned here shortly. I took some pics of some of the buds for you guys.
I am super excited to hear about Florida moving forward towards medical legalization (thats where im at). Im going to be signing this petition here in just a few min. If any of you know any one in Florida please let them know about this so they can also sign it.
All the pRon in here is looking great as always. My garden has been down ever since I took down all the tahoes. But I have a few beans popping now so things are going to be up and running here real soon. Going to do a full soil run for the first time ever for me. Hope everything works out well.
Doobie thats awsome about the performance parts giving you that much boost. I for one will say once you get a different rev box and that yoshimara she will be a ripper. I dont know if they make a jet kit for that carb but if they do I would recommend it once you get the exhaust. It will really open her up. And also good luck with the new phone, I just got the galaxy s4 and it was a bit of a handfull at first but I am finally catching on and figuring out how badass this thing actually is.
Well I hope every one is having a good friday.
Ohhhh yeah forgot about the comp, I think that is a great idea. Picture of your favorite smoke spot is going to be funnnnn. Now I just have to think of where I am going to go. STAY HIGH!!!!
This last picture was before the cure.

Bizzump....
i think maybe an initial vote for best 10 pics, then a wider vote thread...posssibly. Up to you if you want to enter/judge whodat.
here's a quick peak at some of the prizes I got for the competition, among other things that I shall refrain from mentioning, lets just say "souviners".
So I think if there are no disagreements that we'll do something along those lines re the comp. Anyone for any other ideas? I'll post something a bit more official at the weekend unless anyone else chimes in with a suggestion.
Mmmn, I love weed, and I love beer! yup, it's beer oclock here, cookies later.

Hi penyajo!
Hope y ou get to be feeling better soon!
Sending this from my new phone
The 2013 Metropolitan is fuel injected, and a 4-stroke but there is a controller module out there that will modify rev limit and FI map to help unlock the engine. That might happen this month or next month. September will be when I get a Yoshimura exhaust.
Wish it was carbed, would be easier & cheaper, but fuel injection has some benefits.
Over all very happy with the gains the variator gave me, and looking forward to more speed in the near future.
Okay... back to using my computer for this.

Man alive.
I bought a new HPS bulb the other day, and it runs about 10f cooler than the mH.
Has been super easy to keep my growbox cool, even with the extended hours for vegging that requires running the light until 3-pm (on at 9-pm, off at 3-pm).
Temps in the box are staying at 74f, and I'm able to get the seedlings 11-inches away from the bare bulb in an open hood with no heat issues at all.
I should be able to top my seedlings in a week or two, and will be using the tops as clones to jumpstart the perpetual again.
Hope everyone's doing well out there.
