Happy 4/20!
There is plenty going on Fri – Sat – Sun – Mon leading up to 4/20 and you can catch more info at the Activist’s Agenda.
I will be appearing Saturday, along with NORML Board Member and Oregon NORML Executive Director Madeline Martinez (overlooking that quarter-pound cubit-length joint), at the grand opening of the Southern Oregon NORML Cannabis Resource Center in Medford, Oregon (see http://sonorml.org for details).
On Monday 4/20, I will be participating in a hearing and protest at the state capitol in Salem regarding SB 388, a bill intended to gut the Oregon Medical Marijuana Program and impose onerous new restrictions. (see http://ornorml.org for details).
Send your pics and videos to stash@norml.org for our Monday posts!

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
Happy 4/20 NORML and thanks for all you do to help legalize marijuana!
