Modern,
I was being sort of sarcastic but its no pine. If it came over on a boat from the tropics all bets are off there are so many species of plants. If its North American I'm pretty sure it's a Buckeye, which would make sense since there's a good bit of lore about Buckeyes. Although I went to college I have no knowlege of hemp. All I know is its good for making rope and despite popular opinion is far inferior to pine as an alternative fuel prospect

Thanks Bronco.
Man, This has been a tough one to ID. :icon_scratch:
I'm just hoping its actually is an old item rather than a marijuana leaf.

Rabbit tobacco is from a small green plant that grows everywhere in the south. When you chew it your spittle turns brown just like tobacco, but it don't have much of a taste at all. When real plug tobacco was in short supply, devoted chewers would mix it with their real tobacco to make it last longer. Kinda' like putting chickory in coffee. I tried chewing once and puked for 3 days! Like ot never got that taste out of my mouth!

Faux cannibus. Hemp fiber plant. Looks like marijuana but has no resin. I've never smoked dope believe it or not and I had tons of it at my disposal at one time. Now my sister in Dallas has to buy it from the local dealer because she has glaucoma and can't get it by prescription. Medicinally, she only has to take a few tokes to get relief for her eyes and she claims she don't smoke enough at one time to get high! I said "Sure"! I know it would be too tempting for me. Kinda' like the potato chips commercial, you can't smoke just one. ::) Monty

Monty,
Sorry to hear about your Sis. :(

Bigcypress,
With all of that info, you aren't fooling me man. I want to party with you Dude! :tongue3: :tard:

You just reminded me.....
When I was out in Calif last week, my wife & I went to the Haight / Ashbury district to view the hippies and get a few Grateful Dead items for our daughter. :o I took a picture of this pipe & bong shop there. I didn't think these places were even legal anymore. :icon_scratch:
Shows how out of tune I am.
Heck, I thought they were p*n*s pumps!!! :tongue3:
By the way, when did they get rid of 8-tracks? :icon_scratch:
-MM-

they are legal, but i think that stuff is supposed to be sold only for tobacco. for example, you can't say "bowl", you have to say "glass pipe" or they get mad...

LOL Back in the 60's we smoked Mexican weed; couldnt stop laughing. It was kinda mellow. Then Jamaican came around. Some Vietnamese came home. I think Colombian was next. The stronger it became the less funny it was. Truth is I never liked the stuff.... couldnt concentrate. Nowadays they got African, Hawaiian and highly selected Homegrown stuff germinated from selected seeds, cloned from a mother plant and hydroponically grown indoors under controlled atmosphere, with super nutrients, that will probably knock your socks off! Its just not for me. ::)
