I've had extremely similar looking buds.. definitely wish I could find the driver CD for my camera so I could post the pics. The more you talk about it, the more I realize that I may have been fooled. When I buy it, it is very moist, often times even hard to light. I wouldn't say I'd rather smoke shwag, but we'll see. The guy who sells it is one of my friends, and he's probably been fooled just like I have.

I don't know though, now that I know about it I'll see if I do get such a drained feeling next time I smoke it... I'm certainly not buying anymore for $50/eighth.

I'm getting an eighth of Sage to break in my new bong though :thumbsup:

Gunna hit me pretty hard after going cold turkey on smoking for the past two weeks.
