Interesting. It usually ends up like that for whatever reason(s). Mods come and go in similar cycles, but are almost always the old-timers compared to the general masses.Quote:

Hi painretreat,
Good post very nice choice of words very well written I could not do better Two :thumbsup::thumbsup: and because you so good at this how about you get :stoned: just to medicate some of that pain away. You bet your bottom dollar I plan to get :stoned: tonight my legs hurt.
As for the moderators I am still look for one I have a question?

Hey bayou bud are you from the Bayou? Yes I am. :pimp: been there plan on going back in two months.
This goes to all of you/us,
You only as old as you feel. I mean in your mind if your mind believe you old then you are. How to not feel old you have to start believe you in the here and now. Yesterday is gone you cannot do a dam thing about that. Tomorrow is not here yet the best you can do is plan and most plans fail. The key is TODAY it is here and now live it and :rastasmoke: because one of yesterday plans got through that you made it to today what more can you ask for in a mess up world. Many people that were here yesterday are not here today just GONE in the wind. I want to live for today and I am young.
you're on to something there Jack. More often than not lately, I feel old around here... even though I really am not. Curious that. Must be the burden on my body from carrying all these rep+ points around. :rofl:
Can't kill mi, just my mood ;)
Well, I don't think I'll be baited into another 'moderator' quip in an attempt to defend, that could be mistaken. I have reviewed some posts from the past several months and it seems, that a lot of the "old members" are still lurking in and occasionally can't help to post. It is nice to see they are still around. AS we all still need and like their advice. I have seen a few young of age, get busy with college, careers and life in general. It is a sure bet, they will most likely be back. We do hope. I certainly do. There are a few threads that were left hanging, and I will stick around or lurk back in (if I get too busy) to see if they every post the final decisions of their indecisions! Especially, the guy that "...My wife doesn't know that I burn, but. . .." he finally told her the last I noticed and I am still anxious to hear the answer. Bet she took away his Ipod!
I would believe we are talking about 'old members' and not age. Even some younun's can feel old for a day. I am a fortunate one. When I first came to Canna. com I was going through a lot of pain, etc. Luckily, I hardly need medication from my M.D. at all. As much as I enjoy my pot, I don't even use it daily anymore. Even though it is half the price now, that it was a few years ago. In fact, I use it more for allergy than pain, at this point. But, then I do use for pleasure and it would be a toss-up, if I would have needed it for pain or not! But, I do partake with my medibles for pleasure and tha twould be a preventative measure! Trying to take off a few pounds and haven't had a brownie in a bit.
I grow a bit, buy a bit and protest for legalization alot! There is a lot of jobs and answers to the future for the people that are young of age in this fine world! You, that know the value of a fine plant. Corn is not the answer, you can't medicate with it. A great multi-use plant-marijuana/hemp. Close the prisons down and grow it there, fences are in place! Get our Pot Using freinds out of jail! Back on their front porches in the rocker.
I will soon buy my rocking chair and give my armchair, sidewalk consultations as I hope to see a lot of the economy restored with a "Pot Rush" . No one minds paying fair prices for good bud, if we have better access. It is most so seldom you find a good funny pothead in a nasty angry fight. We are lovers not warriors!
I would say, it really is interesting to see that moderators are seemingly the "oldest" members that are active here. I don't even know what to speculate on that. But, we do have a few older members and, interestingly, they seldom post, at all, maybe 3 times a year, if that. Prolly a good way to have a good standing! As I have learned so much in this Forum, not just about pot, but life around the world! Have a Good evening, all, gonna go take my last walk of the day and off to L.A. tomorrow. pr
GaG, I think I was still using a modem in the '90's and didn't even know there was a Forum like this! pr
You were still using a modem,then.. As was I.1995-2000 were my first years at this site. When I first found this site. There were several of us that were at Overgrow.com,now defunct. We were lookin' for a site to settle in at found this one. Back then there was only Ron and no mods.Trolls everwhere! Trying to kill the forums!! Most had respect for eachother since we had already been dealing with one another for years. Uncle Ben,Mota20,Dreamer,Gonzo klozit king,Tampiman and the list goes on! Some I still keep in touch with and some have passed away. One being the late great,mota20! He passed away in 1999. Dreamer being one of the founders of all that Bad Ass Berry strains coming out of Oregon.Great Guy! He used to call me Johnny Reb. Wish I could dig up all those post from back in the day! Now this is makin' me feel real OLD!Quote:

Hello GaGrown,
Your not old enough to think or feel OLD! Why don't you ask mota20 if that true or not. Go ahead I am waiting. OK then smoke some thing any thing :rastasmoke: if you have to a big one. :thumbsup:
