The Origin Revealed

According to Steven Hager, editor of High Times, the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. While our teens feel that they know something we don't, you can let them in on the fact that it was your generation that came up with the numbers.

A quote from one of the Waldos in the High Times article states, "We did discover we could talk about getting high in front of our parents without them knowing by using the phrase 420." Fortunately, your teenagers will not have that same option.

Whatever!

Simply put, 420 is a symbol of cannabis and its culture. Today, April 20th events are international, and 4:20 pm has become sort of a world wide "burn time". It certainly doesn't matter too much where the term came from because for us parents, it's a flag, a warning sign that our teenagers may be into something that could harm their future. When you see the symbol 420, be aware of what it represents.

Ya know I got 2 states of mind, stoned and asleep

First I hit the sweetleaf, and then I have nice dreams

When I get up, I wake and bake, take a piss and shake

My clock stopped at Four-twenty, what you want me to say

I stay blazed all day, no matter where Im creepin

Hot boxin on your block, and at the spot on the weekends

Youll see smoke risin, Just who could it be

Its my rhyme and crime partner, D. dash L. O. C.

Faded off the bud smoke blowin it at you nerds thanks Johnny Richter for your nice little hand

Havin a blast, not givin a fuck, doin my thing

Blowing rings through the crowd, being loud and obnoxious

Now the shots I did with Pak got me feelin kind of nauseous

But I played it cool and pulled a few snapps

Big fat packed bowls, and had a chicken Caesar wrap

Dippin through the whole place, no where else Id rather be

Then smokin weed with my peeps, now I pass it to D.
