While waiting for Chinese food the other day, I stopped in the new Smokers Choice shop on Upper Union.  When they say 'smokers' they aren't referring to tobacco.Haven't seen that much drug paraphernalia since the 70s.  According to the gentlemen working there, they are also looking to open a store in Rotterdam.

You do understand that it's not drug paraphernalia until you actually use it for drugs.

I suppose the bongs and pipes are really to be used for planters or incense holders and the rolling papers are the new type of post-it note.  Excuse my presumption.
They did say the only complaints they have had were from people from Niskayuna who thought the shop was in their little town.

  Ya Valium had its day!  Now Give Xanax and Ridilin to Crazy people and it really does help?  So combine low income in some cases? and the inner city more populated streets will be more safer?  I thought you hear less accidents and overdose with weed? Then Alcohol seems? Then Tax it like cigarettes and alcohol!!

It shows there is a market for such products and if there is a market there is money to be made. Orion on Jay St. has been open for as long as I can remember, I seen stores come and go on that street but the Head shop remains open, I say good for them

Country Farms on Erie Blvd across from the bowling alley has a glass display filled with pipes and bongs, many of your smaller gas stations and smaller stores now carry such products. Like you said it is what it is, we just need the government to wake up now and get their heads out of their a$$es and legalize it already.

It's called 'supply and demand'!
And there is clearly a demand for it out there and more then enough folks to supply it!?

There's also a new one on central ave. Good for them. Makes sense if you have to have 20 pharmacies per town for all the prescription drug addicts, you should at least be able to save on gas to buy your bong

Live and learn.  I thought the only head shop was on Jay.  Guess I don't pay enough attention.
