cubans are rum drinkers like most people from the carribean, i have the stuff running in my blood but we're also known to drink alot of wine. personally i prefer rum unless im eating then wine is good but nothing compares to a cold beer on a hot day on the beach.

Lessen the penalies on marijuan laws. If you take all of the potsmokers out of jail then there would probably be thousands upon thousands of open postions for rapists, murderers, and the whole other nine yards.

how bad is the strain canadianbud??

I had what the fuckers in the hosptial called a 'level 3 strain' but then it turned out that the ligaments were torn.
anyway ive never had as much pain as when i was recoveringh from that footballing accident.
the only good things about it were the rhymes i write in that time, a small series called 'ligament damage', and the mixture of codeine and skunk, of course..

yes i am currently enjoying some tylenol 3's they gave me.

Its not that htis one is so bad, its that the last two (on the same ankle) were so bad and happened within a month. this one is not as bad but still annoying. I got a brace and tensors to wrap it and i have to wear em for a while til it makes a full recovery.

aand on the drinking thing, cubans are crazy rum drinkers. i just got back from an 8 day trip in cuba and you can buy a 26er of rum for 3 dollars (convertable pesos, equivelant of an american dollar). its more expensive to buy water than it is to buy alcohol.

unfortunately by going over there you supported the communist government and Fidel Castro. I remember when no-one could stand the guy but after a couple generations pass people get use to him. what town did you visit? im guessing it was a tourist town unless you went to one of the slums. My family is from Pinar de Rio, use to be the cigar rolling capital of cuba but things have changed alot since then.

did you get to smoke an cuban cigars?

[canadianbud]

I spent 7 days in Havana, which is not tourist town, but not as poor as the rest of cuba, but still pretty poor, kind of run-down, but the people were still very nice and i had a great time.

I smoked 3 montecristo #3's, and 2 cohiba #3's, as well as 2 romeo and juliet #1's. Yes unfortunately i supposed the communist reign of fidel, but i think once he is dead cuba will prosper very quickly. I believe that trade with the U.S. will reopen after being closed for such a long time for a not so great reason.

We did spend the last day in an all-inclusive resort in Veradero which is complete tourist town.

havana's kept pretty clean but im not sure if its a tourist town. Pinar de Rio is pretty close to havana. glad you had a good time it is a beautiful country to bad cigars arent what they use to be especially cohibasbut monte cristo(are those the ones that come in the clear plastic container?) and romeo and juliet are great cigars.

did you find any pot? i have no idea what the weed situation is there. did you get any pictures you can send me?

[canadianbud]

Cohiba's are still regarded as the #1 cigar worldwide.

As for pot, we were offered it a few times, once 5 g's for 20 pesos, but the pot looked quite below my standards, and in cuba they are pretty strict about drugs so i decided not to risk it. I'd assume they could get some decent pot, seeing as how they are quite close to jamaica.

I didnt take a camera but a bunch of friends did, ill post up pics when i get em from him, could be a week more though.

i just ate a crap load of raw shrimp.
