Wow, thanks a-lot for all your responses guys
I guess I'll just try it again soon... maybe even tomorrow, and hope that what some of you have said is correct (that it's hard to get stoned the first time around).

While we're on the subject, I basically had 2 joints already rolled neatly with a filter and everything... now I have about 10 grams in simple leaf form.

Any tips on how to properly roll it into a joint? I know I need to add a small amount of tobacco... any advice on the Tobacco:Cannabis ratio I should be using?
