No no no no...stay with me here man.

It's decriminalized, not legalized. Not a felony any more. So you still buy from the same dude. In my case, Jerry O, Kevin's little brother who works landscaping wit Fitzy and Sully.

BUT...now when I get busted, I just get a ticket! (and lose the weed)

So they can regulate it, tax it, and profit from it, of course. It is the Peoples Republic of Massachussetts after all.

Kind of.

containing marihuana and the preparations, compounds, mixtures or
substances are of an aggregate weight of more than twenty-five grams.
[B]Criminal possession of marihuana in the fifth degree is a class B

If they find it in your pocket, pursuant to a lawful search:

Anyone remember power hitters in the dorm room? Fat plastic ketchup dispenser
looking thing. You put the joint inside and squeeze the smoke into your mouth.
Then stick your head out the window and blow the smoke out? No smoke in the room. No RA knocking at the door. Who invented that? We need more minds like that.

We've got a new thing now.

It's called a gravity bong. Get a three liter bottle from BJ's or Costco and do this:

are you saying that having under an ounce of weed in MA was a felony until recently? I find that hard to believe. Are you sure it didn't go from a misdemeanor to a violation? That would be more in line with getting just a ticket.

When I was in college, one of my roomates was busted with a duffel bag full of weed (we are talking pounds) and while he spent a couple o' nights in the Waltham lockup, didn't end doing any time - just a ****load of community service. Ended up with a misdemeanor, not a felony.

Ha!

Reminds me of the old days:

RA:Knock Knock -Open this door now!!

Student:I'll be there in a moment (rooms were 10 feet by 10 feet)

RA: Open the door now!!

Student:I'll be right there

RA: Now!!!!!

Student:okay

RA: Now!!!!!

Student: I'm almost there.....

Wet towels being hidden. Cologne being sprayed. Hair being sprayed. Crap flying out the window. I miss college.
