Spring is here in the northern hemi! It brings out the buds, the shoots and the fools.

Glancing out my back door recently I couldnt help but see (against the glaring white backdrop of the back of their house) 3 guys passing a doob while hilariously guffawing. FFS! Why not advertise!:smack:

Yes, Im jealous:D
