Guess I'm close to slipping into that phase now. Grown up kids look at me like I'm mad when they see me with an iPod stuck in my lugholes, listening to the likes of Uriah Heep and Dr John ... Arfa Did they bring you a blunt yet? Too cryptic for me this time of night ... *A blunt what ... ? *Knife ? Instrument ? * :-) Arfa A blunt is a joint made using the outer covering of a cheap cigar, like a Phillie. In fact Phillie makes a cigar named the "Blunt." So that's how blunts got their name. Split the cigar open and dump the contents, fill with your favorite intoxicating herb, and roll it up like the traditional Jamaican cornshuck splif. That's how blunts got started -- Jamaican immigrants to major northern conurbations like NYC could find Phillies Blunts a lot more easily than they could find cornshucks. Old-fashion corner delis, candy stores and newsstands in New York City still sell Phillies as they always have. Most Phillies probably go into making blunts, now, but some people still smoke them despite that Phillies are the nastiest cigars made. |
