4:20 on 4/20

Today is 4/20, which in certain circles is a pro-marijuana rally day. The term 4:20 has become synonymous with smoking weed.

Where did the term 4:20 originate?

A group known as "The Waldos" claim to have originated 420 in San Rafael in 1971. The group began meeting every day at 4:20 PM after school and eventually began to use 420 as a code for marijuana so they could talk about pot in front of their parents and teachers. It became so popular so quickly because San Rafael was home to the Grateful Dead and 420 spread throughout the Deadhead community.

Burn One Down - Ben Harper

Let us burn one
From end to end
And pass it over
To me my friend
Burn it long, we'll burn it slow
To light me up before I go

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
'Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down

My choice is what I choose to do
And if I'm causing no harm
It shouldn't bother you
Your choice is who you choose to be
And if your causing no harm
Then you're alright with me

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
'Cause I'm gonna burn one dwon
Yes I'm gonna burn one down

Herb the gift from the earth
And what's from the earth
Is of the greatest worth
So before you knock it try it first
You'll see it's a blessing
And not a curse

If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
'Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down

See you when I see you.
