About Me

Myspace Layout Generator by TheMyspaceLayout.com
Snow Bud and the Flower People make Rock n Roll music. Music to Fuck by. Music to get stoned to. They do not condone the use of Marijuana, but they have been known to experiment with all drugs known to Man. After much experimentation ,they have come to the conclusion that Weed will fuck up your life the least of all evils. Besides you are already listening so we will assume you are stoned to the bone! Marijuana has been called the "Gateway Drug", the gateway to enlightenment perhaps?" The Tree of Knowledge?" The proverbial "Burning Bush" accussed of causing Laziness and Lethargy. Well we are here to say "So Fucking What?" Lifes a Bitch and then You Die! That's why we get High, cuz ya never know when yer gonna go! Now We've seen some folks do some pretty horrible things to get their Heroin, Cocaine, Meth, etc., But, how many people have Robbed, Prostituted, or Committed Suicide over the Devil Weed? We do admit some of the strains now available are so potent they may render you useless to society and you may become morbidly obese after ingesting huge amounts of Pizza and Ice Cream. None the less, Cannabis grows wild, and we do too! So You decide!
