Four and 20 make for a party, when linked together. The new kid on the (south-end) block, New Richmond Tobacco and Vape, has come roaring in with a bunch of great pipes and 4-20 specials, so its no longer a mystery. But mystery bags anyone?

The specials will abound around a theme, as Thursday comes around, at the newest such shop in the area, New Richmond Tobacco and Vape on the south end.
They call it their Spaced Out 420 (no hyphen or colon) sale, and you won’t want to forego this one, as part of celebrating the special holiday (non-official but observed, by those who bow to Black Sabbath and Sweet Leaf) again on April 20 for all stoners, known to all who have relatively clear memories as 4-20.
Mystery bags will be for sale, so you have to be trusting of the staff’s selections, among their bigger than usual inventory that includes some very hard to find products, among them the delivery-method merch that when fully loaded allows you to enjoy their other merch.
This is just like those offered for years at Pudge’s and Emma’s and other St. Croix County bars and liquor stores. One had to look at the prices, which varied by venue but usually not by much, to see if a deal was likely to be had, and match the alcohol percentage tallies of bottles of their off-sale booze — and we have to invoke the impact of profit motive and the unloading of product that just isn’t selling.
Back at NR TAV on April 20, you can buy two disposables and get one free. The same ratio exists with most Delta products, 8 and 9. But why would you want to dispose of such things? Or why not?
Being creative with their specials, you can also get a bottle of (juiced) juice with purchase of any nicotine device, saith NR TAV.
There are so many “delivery” options, broadly, to facilitate getting your stuff inside you, in the Amazon era.
Buy any glass product and get the second one for 50 percent off, at NR TAV. In case you Shattered the first one. The Stones, with Old School smokers like guitarist Keith Richards and their smokin’ music, should know.
(The) first three people to spend $100 at the roomy venue located on Knowles, South rather then North, will win a free prize, (is that not why they call it a prize?) Like a Vegas poker game to win, by getting to the three-digit dollar level, so you might want to up the ante or amount.
There will also be on-hand a crew of lobbyists, topically, fighting for your right to party with the newest and biggest option that’s on the legislative table(s) for legalization, and explaining how to get a bill passed to stoners. (Just kidding for that whole sentence).
Also, the first trio inside the door win a free door prize. One thinks of music by The Doors and such.
And that flavor of music, like Pink Floyd, might be an inspiration for the other vape and more shops in Rivers Falls, Hudson and New Richmond — the Devil’s Tri-Tone? — to plan even well in advance, so you as a consumer don’t always have to wait until The Twentieth, their raffles and other 4-20 amenities. Amen.

  • This prophet said to the fan next to me, after a Final Game One out, Brewers in Four!?! Prior to that, businesses were putting up ladders around Hudson, to paint the town, to spruce up for the big game(s), home and away. Just like the Brew Crew’s win over Tampa Bay, first three games at least, was a stepping stone. (Bear with me, not Chicago, to the end of this also music and other mayhem post for some sports bar observations. Revamped since the start of the postseason. Since revamped again, with Brewers threatening early in Game Four.)
The polka fans are revving it up. Convenience and grocery stores, not to mention sports bars, that are sponsors of the Brewers are amping it up, too, even up here in Hudson, 300-plus miles away from Milwaukee. Three-hundred? Was that, in pounds, the playing-day weight of sluggers Cecil Cooper, or George Scott? Has it been that long? Will tonight be the swan song for that World Series foe from Florida, down by the bay, leaving it sitting by the dock, crying in its beer with Jimmy Buffett? No Marguerita-ville. Laturalis, if a Tool fan, since this is at its base,...

  • Drop by drop, taking a big step. One Drop Refillery lets you refill, over and over, a plethora of non-toxic household liquid and dry good products in a single stop, and not always buy new and often plastic containers that fill up landfills, or even oceans. A passion for nature, you can drop in or order other ways. Two Hudson locations (see end of post for addresses.)
When walking down Second Street in Hudson, you may have seen a sign in a doorway saying One Drop Refillery, and like me thought it was a distillery, like a new place to have a drink. That would not fill the bill. Rather, this new shop that’s like a small mill, as in a dispensary, but quickly grew into featuring much more though related goods, reduces one of your steps and will be a first step toward saving the environment. It’s tucked inside the north half of a long existing photography studio by Lisa Buth and being what the former name says, it’s...

  • Whether good witch of the north or east, or wicked witch of the south or west, there are treats galore as you walk the varied directions of Hudson’s streets, stopping at stores galore in this the former small business crawl. It leads off a pre-Halloween weekend with a lot to do, and see the Brew CRew too.
The pre-Halloween haunts are now hanging out their hat, and their head if they still have one, to harangue you, with a Witch’s Night Out — warlocks are apparently out of luck, although they can walk the street beside you, though she just might pass you by — on Thursday, Oct. 22, when things and heads really start rolling. (I was caught in a burning ring of fire, the circling flames lift my smoldered hat higher. Then rims settled for grab globs by Godiva, so she came a horseback witch attired.) So this is a night not only of bad lyricism and sometimes...

  • ALL hALLOWS alert: For more on what to do in this last full weekend before Halloween, starting with THURSDAY, and One Drop at the Refillery, see the lead post shown in the latest dispatches heaDING below. —– Strolling the streets of not Soho in the sunshine, bothering beauties at streetlights, a-chipping heads off rattlesnakes and lighting up eels orbs in the direction of their land holes … All in a hot day’s, cool night’s work — could be Kid Rock — with mild-sauce, hot-pink-dress dreaming, and circling toward Mars and an art night with that drumming Replacement.
To all you true blue followers, hope you enjoy the following run-on expanse as humorous and very warped and a little redneck. It is all true, except for the dream part, which was dreamt. Welcome to Halloween early! Drank a couple of energy drinks, no Monster, and pulled an all-nighter typing somewhat late-dropped-into-my-lap advertorials and carried on my sleeplessness into the next morning and afternoon, all the while walking around the downtown and delivering draft copies and even picked up another assignment, one that could go boo in the night, say what is so. Was at the light by Agave and for some...

  • Buddy, can you please spare me a can opener? Since mine doesn’t work. Again. So you can ‘spin’ it this way: The truisms of life today, in the USA, so many of them, can come down to the fact that a can opener tells all, coming full circle. That does, and the fact that its Octoberfest time, but so many seasons have still not arrived, even though it’s very near mid-terms, for both pupils and politicians at the polls.
It’s roughly mid-October in a roughly MAGA America and how is your rough life going? (Seems like early November, but only politically, not as far as the mal-adjusted seasons.) Well I’ll tell you about mine, thank you. And roughly. Halloween haunts — got to find some extra dough for candy and costumes for the kids and myself, more and more obligatory for adults, but all I have is some spare change, can you please bum me a dime? — are already becoming reality in our everyday lives. Note use of the word “everyday.” Master of Reality? Black Sabbath nailed it...

  • I’ll say it, and play it, again. And again. Pick one for how fast you can pick. With fingers or using a pick. How many notes per second on a guitar? This is real world, not guitar hero. So I asked a veteran blues man, sitting next to me at the music club. And that’s just for starters. —– PLay it again Sam; though a chore for the door and out on the floor, Halloween decor and more is now roaring in.
How fast can you swing the axe? Ask the axe-man not on stage but sitting next to you. Bar math can be fun, as I’ve said many a time, but especially when it’s coming from a decades-long blues man. Imagine going to a bar to have a drink, or two, and then end up talking to a musician about how many more (notes) than that he can play a second! Try five or maybe six. Off to Hudson Tap, and tapping into the knowledge of a guy older than I who is a veteran blues man, mostly — and I...
