Yup, it rocks, Turtle, that's some real Halloween style.

Just don't let anybody wear a sheet this year, they might get blown away as a jihadi.

@FP Oh wait. I found a true non smiler.

Nooo, stop it! I was just daring you. Smiles hide wrinkles. My sincere apologies (you look ok tough).

And I thought you were aiming for authenticity of period portraiture. Smiling in pics just wasn't done in those days. Probably to hide the teeth.

Long exposure times => hard to maintain a smile?

My impression is that smiling in pictures, especially portraits, is an American thing.

Here's my costume. I'm not smiling either. I plan on wearing this to the meet-up.

Just bumping this thread as a reminder to those of you who are interested in coming that we are a little more than a month out, so MARK YOUR CALENDARS:

We'll change your mind.

Any of you boys and girls voted for the winner?

I did, because I'm a winner like Trump

Me, too. The gravity of which held great weight here in CA, no doubt.

Being in California I don't think any hardly anything or anyone I voted for passed. The only one is the requirement to post items passed by the state houses to be posted on the Internet.

You didn't vote for pot legalization?

Drain the potheads dry. I totally voted for legalization for that reason and to stop with law enforcement focusing on it.

You didn't vote for pot legalization?

No. I dislike the states passing stuff thats against Federal Law. My quirk. I actually believe all drugs should be legalized, or at least laws against should be unenforced. But I think going from the bottom up is the wrong way to do it.

I think going from the bottom up may be the only way it can happen.

It was always legal just didn't get caught. Now it's too powerful and it's more easily accessible than ever, there's a lot of downsides to this. The Plus side is and would only be making it legal would put a lot of bad people out of dangerous criminal business and make honest productive citizens out of them. But I think it was better and people were better off when it was hassle to get. And if you had a regular weedman you had to hang out at his house while he rolled huge taters out of your bag, before you could split. Because of the traffic optics, he didn't want any in and out. Or off the street, which I never did.
