Topic: Happy April 20!!!

Happy 4-20 to all my earthy, hippy friends out there. Here's to the future where one day soon we'll be able to "drink our tea" without big brother spitting in our cups. Have a nice evening folks.

Peace and Guitars,

Re: Happy April 20!!!

Hey Alvee,

420 is US police code that is used to point out people who have a portly frame whilst they are on patrol. It causes no suspician if public hear "Check out that 420" followed by much laughing at the expense of the large person without them knowing; much more acceptable than "Hey, Hank, check out that fatty."

Bogart, Humphrey was a great American actor who appeared in such films as the African Queen and Cassablanca. He was known for his sarcastic manner and put-downs.

I think the phrase "Don't bogart that 420" is a polite way of bringing your friends into line by saying "Don't take the watsit out of that fatty!" without the person of increased capacity getting suspicious or upset.



Or I could be talking complete cods and it's all refering to what the Fab Four reputedly consumed in Buck House when going for a gong.

Re: Happy April 20!!!

What songs are there on this subject?

Obvious one mentioned "Don't Bogart that...."

What about Maccabee "Don't do it, don't do it, don't do the drug put it in the toilic" (actually in favour of this)

"M*******a, m*******a, it's safer than pills, cheaper than booze, make you sing like Frank Sinatra. Ooohh-ooh, m*******a Australiana, it's the greatest craz since the Tiffany days and you can buy it from your local farmer"

Don't know who this last is by and what it's called.

Exactly!  Your closer with that example KajiMa my dear.  wink  From Wikipedia:

"4:20 or 4/20 (pronounced four-twenty) refers to consumption of cannabis and, by extension, a way to identify oneself with cannabis drug subculture.

The origin of the term stems from a story about a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California, United States in 1971.[1][2] The teens would meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana at the Louis Pasteur statue. The exact time was chosen because that was the time that afternoon detention was dismissed."  cool

And you're WAY off with what bogarting a doobie means.  Bogarting is hogging it all for yourself, not passing it around, sitting chatting away and smoking it all yourself, like my brother in law does!  mad

There is a Humphrey Bogart actor too though.

Re: Happy April 20!!!

This is a little off topic but maybe someone following this thread can enlighten me... What does the "Walrus" symbolize in most older songs.  In song's like "The Garden Party" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_exY9ptMbA   or "I am the Walrus" by the Beatles" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqOKvonLrH8  It's referred to in many other older songs as well.. -Pix

Re: Happy April 20!!!

"Roll another one just like the other one"       line from The Fraternity of Men the Soundtrack Easy Rider   1969  I believe.

I think the song name was "Don't Bogart Me"

Just a wonderful bunch of songs in this Movie especially for a young easily influenced rebel,this movie was the beginning of my hell raising Chopper Days.
