Green Ribbon Has A Rewards Program

For those of you that follow closely enough you may remember my article "Reviewing Green Ribbon" written back in February. For the month I ended up being a short term regular at Green Ribbon. they were great but eventually I found a suitable Co-Op much closer to home.

My usual Co-Op doesn't accept debit or credit and today I found myself cash less and in need of using my PayPal debit card. As truth be told Green Ribbon was the closest that actually had a working machine. A few pharmacies accepted but both said machines were down. So ironically I ended up back Green Ribbon.

Not only did they take care of my medication but I noticed their advertisement for a new rewards program. I could believe it. I am proud of my city. Riverside is really breaking ground with our normalization of medical marijuana. The Green Ribbon Co-Op is a primary example. With any medication the prices are just too much for the average citizen and the reward program now offered is sure to help many of us. Here below is a list of just a few of the rewards now offered at Green Ribbon.

Prize --- Patient Points

Pre-Roll = 100 pts
Edible = 250 pts
1 Eighth = 500 pts
Bong = 5,000 pts
Playstation 3 = 7,500

Americans for Safe Access

Also Known as the ASA The Americans for Safe Access has recently created a new program that everyone must know about. Americans for Safe Access is a member-based organization of patients, medical professionals, scientists and concerned citizens promoting safe and legal access to cannabis for therapeutic use and research.

We have come along way but our system, laws and our rights are far from perfect and with raids still happening, what’s a medical cannabis provider to do? Thankfully, Americans For Safe Access (ASA) has launched a “Raid Response” campaign to help protect our MMJ community’s rights. When a raid is in progress and reported to ASA, here’s a taste of how things are supposed to go down

Step 1 As illustrated above ... ASA staff checks its database to find information about the provider or dispensary being raided.

Step 2 is illustrated to our right as the ASA seeks to confirm the raid by calling the dispensary contacts it has on file. Communicating directly with the dispensary. This gives the ASA the opportunity to acquire the accurate information prior to sending out Text Alerts to the MMJ community.


Step 3 .... Attorneys for the medical cannabis provider and the local media are both contacted. A text alert is sent to the community.

Finally Step 4 ......Local activists are convened, a press release is issued, victims and patients are supported.

Budd Buzzard Beef Jerky from Fuzzy Gardens

As the boom of Medical Marijuana continues the popularity of medical edibles and beverages grows with it. Although many of my friends and peers rant and rave about the new products available, I on the other hand am personally very cautious and skeptical about edibles. We all know that direct is indigestion is the only way to overdose and I guess I am a little paranoid about it myself. I guess I have a hard time feeling comfortable about it when I don't know who prepared it and how safe their recipe or staff may be. In all I think the same can be said for buying food in drive-thru. So I decided to buy an edible from the pharmacy I trust the most... Fuzzy Gardens.

I had tried some cookies before so this time I wanted to try something different. I was hoping this time around it would hit me stronger so I went with a 5$ bag of beef jerky hoping the oils were more effective. The product is called Budd Buzzard Beef Jerky and it came in a small bag with a half ounce of jerky. The half ounce consisted of about 4 and 1/2 small sticks of greasy beefy. The taste really normal. When I buy beef jerky i like the spicy kind but this tasted practically the same as a regular stick of non-spicy jerky. Being as paranoid as I am, I only had a stick and a half to evaluate the first serving and I am sure glad I did. It worked. Total relaxation.

It really worked. the taste and the strength went very well went my body. Not to mention it was just 5$ and I still have 2 servings left. Yes I am a light weight so it may affect you bigger people a little less but for a 165 pounder it was just right for me. You gotta check it out if you into edibles. It gets my vote.

President Obama Roasts Donald Trump

I know what your thinking but his is a must see TV. Its not my usual blog post but again its must see TV. Not only is it important current events but this video below will have you crying out of laughter. Many of you have seen and loved the Comedy Central Celebrity Roast. Well this is the real life political version.

Recently Barack Obama has been under scrutiny about his birth certificate. Donald Trump has been leading a very controversial political confrontation. Calling the President a liar is one thing. Calling him am illegal alien is a whole new ball park.

I personally think money and race still has alot to do with this but the truth is I don't care if Obama was born of America or not. When he first got his nomination i cringed at the fact that we could have a him for president. Not because of his skin color. I was more nervous of his foreign name and any possible links to terrorism. Almost four years later I have a completely different outlook. I have read and researched some of the changes Barack Obama has tried to make. Mix that with the changes he has made and I would say he is doing a pretty good job. Its not east fixing what we took over a century to destroy. Our government is not perfect and neither is any one man. So why is Donald trump really pointing fingers? I don't know but lets just say Barack Obama is not suppose to legally be our president. That does not mean he isn't the best president we have had in the past 40 years.

Regardless of your political views you have to acknowledge the difference between good people and bad. We must distant ourselves from those that take and surround ourselves around givers. Donald Trump is a taker and I personally would never vote for him to be president. Its common sense to acknowledge that the man doesn't treat humans equally. We all know he is looking down at the average man. Least in Obama we have someone that tries. Its great to see him stand up for himself in a manner very similar to what an average man would do. I am glad he responded this way and its made even better that it was at such a heavily attended public event. I think it was Classy but do think many voters may think otherwise. Either way .. Barack Obama stands as a man confronting his accuser and destroying his future. Bravo!

$5 grams in Riverside

First and Foremost Happy 420! It a great day to recollect on our culture's progress. Over the last few years California and other states have begun to rebuild to our economy with the industrialization of marijuana. Today you could even see the national trend when the hash tag #Happy420 became a trending topic on twitter. With Celebrities like B-Real and Dave Chapelle right in the mix, it appears that April 20th is no longer just stoner language.

For my holiday medicine i was off to a spot called CCG Meds. They Located off the 215 near, right past Center. I have been going to CCG Meds for a few months now and usually they see me on Wednesday or Thursdays for some great deals they host on those specific days. I go in often to check out the $5 Grams and Today I had chose a decent strain called Mr. Brown. It had some crystals so I choose it over the other five strains they had available at that price. I went to order six grams for $30 bucks and the young female clerk made me aware of the 20% off which was a bonus discount running for the holiday. So I quickly changed my order from six to ten grams. After the regular weekly special and the holiday rate I walked out with 10 grams for just 40$. I smoke alot and I have more bills than I can afford so this was a plentiful reward and it made my holiday 10 times better walking away with much more than I expected.

As for the smoke..... Mr Brown turned out to be one of their better $5 offers. I have gotten few strains of better quality for $5 but I have gotten much worse from other pharmacies. There is a slightly pleasant taste to the strain. Its very dense and as the name calls.... its brown. Its also a Hybrid for those of you that are wondering. Overall it turn out to be a great trip and I know the next few day will roll along much smoother. Big Ups to CCG and Happy 420 to all of you.
