The times MUST be changing. You're never going to believe this.

I just visited my dispensary in Mendocino (Loveinit), and Sherry Glaser was beaming. When I asked her why she was so ecstatic, she pulled out a copy of the check: $38,000. I forgot the backstory, but I do know they were busted, and charges were filed against all of the people associated with the dispensary. Her sister actually moved to Thailand over this. I remember one employee was freaked out a few months ago because he had paid 18 grand just to keep from going to jail. Not only that, but they were all living in fear (which many of us know all too well).

So Sherry said that yesterday the DA had actually returned their money! I think this is a benchmark.

Sherry is a standup comedian, and I'm going to her show this Saturday. I think it's going to be good.

Edit- Here's a link to some info and an audio on what happened.

Don't look for it on a map. It's a couple of old buildings on a bluff.

But she is getting ready to try and get Woody Harrelson to do a movie with her on the prohibition years, and our experiences. Something like that.

She was on Broadway for years. It's pretty cool to have a dispensary with amazing people.

I found the link which I'll post in my OT, but the DEA was in on it too.

On 03-04-2014 Deputies from the County of Mendocino, Marijuana Eradication Team assisted by Mendocino County Sheriff Detective Unit, Agents from the Mendocino Major Crimes Task Force, Agents from the Drug Enforcement Administration and Investigators from the District Attorney’s Office served four search warrants related to the “Love In It Cooperative” on the Mendocino County North Coast.
