Thanx

here yesterday was 20/4 it was cold at night and i ate like a pig!!!!

i need to be enlightened about the significance of this date so next year i can join in the fun!!!

so please explain 20/4 2 me

420's origin IS known. the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. So there ya go, someone's parents out there invented the term 4/20. And remember this: There are NOT 420 chemicals in Weed. It's about 315, the num. goes up or down depending on what you're smoking. 4/20 is NOT police code or Maryjane. And that whole shit about Holland and 4/20 over there being "tea time" for smokers isn't true either. http://www.urbandictionar...p?term=420 Another place that debunks more 420 tall tales: http://www.snopes.com/lan...es/420.asp And a list of know celebrations: The term was allegedly coined by a group of teenagers, most notably Parker Haney, in San Rafael, California in 1971.[2][3] Calling themselves the Waldos, because "their chosen hang-out spot was a wall outside the school,"[4] the group first used the term in connection to a fall 1971 plan to search for an abandoned cannabis crop that they had learned about.[5] The Waldos designated the Louis Pasteur statue on the grounds of San Rafael High School as their meeting place, and 4:20 p.m. as their meeting time.[4] The Waldos referred to this plan with the phrase "4:20 Louis". Multiple failed attempts to find the crop eventually shortened their phrase to simply "4:20", which ultimately evolved into a codeword the teens used to mean pot-smoking in general.[5] High Times Creative Director Steven Hager was the first person to track down the Waldos and publish their account of the origins of the term. Hager wrote "Are You Stoner Smart or Stoner Stupid?" (October 1998) in which he called for 4:20 PM to be the socially accepted hour of the day to consume cannabis. "I believe 420 is a ritualization of cannabis use that holds deep meaning for our subculture," wrote Hager. "It also points us in a direction for the responsible use of cannabis." April 20 observances Partial View of Hippie Hill in San Francisco April 20 (4/20 in U.S. date notation) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.[1]Some events have a political nature to them, advocating for the decriminalization of non-...ted States. American observance San Francisco, California Every year thousands of people flock from all over California to San Francisco's Hippie Hill, located in Golden Gate Park near the famousHaight-Ashbury district.[6] Tallahassee, Florida Named the #2 most pot smoking city, in the United States, [7] thousands gather in Tallahassee for the annual 4/20. Some major places areTallahassee Mall, or Florida State University campus. As well, as the Tallahassee Greenway , and the industrial district of town (Skate Park, distribution centers) University of California, Santa Cruz Students and others gather to smokecannabis at a meadow near Porter Collegeon April 20, 2007—"420 Day". A celebration on April 20 takes place every year in the Porter College meadow at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The event has grown during recent years after the city of Santa Cruz passed Measure K in 2006, making marijuana a low-priority crime. Participants in the event are often confronted by religious anti-drug activists, yet these protesters are largely ignored. University of Colorado, Boulder A large celebration is held every year on the University of Colorado's Boulder campus, with attendance reaching more than 11,000 in 2008. It has been estimated that in 2009 the crowd surpassed the 10,000 attendee mark that was set in 2008. This would make CU Boulder's celebration of the hopeful legalization of marijuana one of the largest such celebrations in the United States.[8][9] University police have tried various methods to prevent the gathering, including photographing students participating in the event,[10] but the crowd has grown every year.[9]The university and police have taken a more hands-off approach since 2006, emphasizing event safety over possession citations. Recent growth of the medical marijuana industry in Colorado is expected to add momentum to future events.[11] On April 15, 2009, the Office of the Chancellor sent an e-mail to all CU students regarding the 2009 celebration of 4/20 stating that the event would debase "the reputation of your university and degree." The CU student newspaper disagreed with the Chancellor's analysis[citation needed]. No possession tickets were issued at the 2009 event.[12] Panorama of the 2010 420 cannabis event at University of Colorado at Boulder. Canadian observance Ottawa, Ontario Annually, on April 20, thousands of activists gather on Parliament Hill and Major's hill to look toward the peace tower as they join each other in smoking marijuana when the clock strikes 4:20. Police keep an eye on protesters to make sure the peace is kept within correlation to law.[13][14] Montréal, Québec Every year on April 20, thousands of people gather at the Mont-Royal monument to celebrate 4/20. Police don't make arrests, although they do make their presence known. London, Ontario Each year on 4/20 thousands gather at Victoria Park downtown to celebrate. Over 2000 people joined the festivities in 2010 that included live music. London police made a presence but announced they were not going to lay any marijuana related charges. London is also the hometown of Canadian cannabis policy reform advocate Marc Emery. Toronto, Ontario Every year on the first Saturday in May (in observance of 4/20), a march takes through the city streets in advocacy of legalizing marijuana. The march ends up at Queen's Park Circle just north of the Ontario Provincial Parliament to celebrate 4/20 where there are both vendors and entertainers. Though the event is police-patrolled, no tickets were issued in 2010 while over 30,000 people participated in the revelry. Vancouver, British Columbia On April 20, 2009, an estimated nearly 10,000 people gathered around the Vancouver Art Gallery to celebrate "420". The police did not attempt to make arrests. This event has taken place in Vancouver annually for many years, and the police are generally tolerant of all marijuana use on April 20, and most other days.[15] New Zealand observance Auckland In Auckland, New Zealand a 420 group meets regularly at the Daktory.[16] Dunedin In Dunedin, New Zealand, members of Otago NORML and some students at University of Otago meet every Wednesday and Friday at 4:20 pm under a Walnut tree on the University's Union Lawn to smoke cannabis in defiance of New Zealand's cannabis law. There was considerable media and police interest in the '420' group in 2008, resulting in the arrest of a student and the issuance of trespass notices to members of the public at one of the 4:20 pm meetings.[17][18][19][20][21][22] The group leader was arrested for cannabis possession at a university Market Day unrelated to the 4:20 meetings,[23] but was later discharged without conviction on all charges.[24] The group celebrated their 5th anniversary on 11 September 2009.[25] See also Legality of cannabis by country Spiritual use of cannabis Cannabis legalization in Canada Cannabis in the United Kingdom Cannabis in the United States Drug subculture Hash Bash (Early April, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) 420 (Family Guy)

Not actually serious, though, because I don't actually need a reason to smoke other than being awake.

TORONTO, Canada — Pot lovers are dreaming of July 10, the day Canada’s dope laws go up in smoke.

An Ontario judge has struck down key aspects of Canada’s marijuana laws, triggering a 90-day countdown when growing, possessing or smoking pot will become legal.

The April 11 court ruling gives the federal government three months to either reform the laws or appeal the ruling to a higher court.

At issue is a 2001 law that allows seriously ill Canadians to access marijuana for medicinal purposes. But Justice Donald Taliano found that the vast majority of doctors refuse to prescribe the drug. Patients are therefore forced to break the law, either by growing their own or buying it on the black market.

“Seriously ill persons who need marihuana to treat their symptoms are forced to choose between their health and their liberty,” Taliano, of the Ontario Superior Court, wrote in his ruling.

“If they choose their health, they must go to significant lengths to obtain the marihuana they need, including lengthy trips to purchase the drug, resort to the black market and living with the constant stress that at any time they could be subject to criminal prosecution,” the judge added.

These barriers to legal access, Taliano ruled, violate the constitutional right of seriously ill people to use marijuana if it helps relieve their symptoms. He therefore struck down the 2001 Marihuana Medical Access Regulations.

He also struck down sections of another law that prohibit the possession or growing of marijuana, since they could be used to prosecute patients forced to break the law to relieve their symptoms. The result is that anyone — whether seriously ill or not — will be free to smoke and grow pot in 90 days, which is the amount of time Taliano gave the government to fix the laws.
